19"?? what kind of tape are you using? metric?
my arms are a lil over 19" in this pic, and I am 5'8" sitting in mid 220's about 6 weeks out last year. i wish i had the mirror some of you guys have and could be a lying FILT. oh and no pump either, or gym, i just dropped trow and took em.

I'm always told how big I look....6ft....230lb. But when I look in the mirror at myself I look small. I am usually the strongest in the gym but I am never satisfied!

Anyone else feel this way?

No. I feel like the big, freak-beast at the gym. But, I'm weaker than a pre-teen girl. Hahaha...:headbang:

This is the tricky thing about measurements - you can have them, but not look like you have them. A lot depends on muscle shape - and when it comes to pictures, camera angles can make a huge difference.

I'm not here to brag, so I know what I read off the tape, and I won't debate the point ad nauseum.

In any case, there are many here much more impressive than I am anyway - so just goes to show, *anyone* can be made to feel small under the right conditions.

Short of a video shot with witnesses and a certified-calibration tape, anyone's claims are as up in the air as any one else's. In the end, it's how we look and how we feel about how we look that are important. Enough beating a dead horse, let's get back to admiring the big guys

I gotta see this... Im 6'2" If I had 23" arms with the legs to match I would be 320lbs lol

Lots of my friends swear my arms are 23". Well, that's since the 170lb kid in the gym told everyone that after his deca cycle his arms were 21" cold. They were like "dude, if his arms are 21 you AT LEAST have another 2 inches bro!"

I walked into a golds gym last week that ive never been into before and the guy behind the desk asked how big my arms were and i said i dont know and he taped them cold at 23".So i gues the tapes lying also.hahaha.Il get a pic up sometime next week.

I always would measure pre workout using a seamsters tape. I am in no way as lean as you but yes from peak to peak 19 1/8 just this moment. I definately need a better diet!

No you're a good dude...a lesser man would have gotten defensive. I believe they are 19" but it just goes to show, like you say, you can have them and not look like it.

In either case they're bigger than mine, and you weren't afraid to post pictures, so RESPECT.

 

[bmcjames]

Everyone is bigger than me

but when I'm around them they think I am bigger than I really am.
