Arm measurement cold flexed

Yeah myself I have longer arms so it's a bit harder to add size to these arms compared to guys with shorter arms but there getting there
Right now I am at 17" cold flexed at 217lbs, I am hoping to get up to 18" at 230lbs or so but we will see. They seem to be lagging behind but when I flex people think I have 18 to 19 inch biceps because of the bicep peak I have. Need to get more fullness to these arms ( girth)

17.5 cold flex

i, like you, have longer arms and 17.5 doesn;t look very impressive to me. another inch would be great.
 
bulked up to 236lbs, now cutting and am down to 222lbs. a lot of the drop in weight was water from the cycle.
 
Jut want to get other people's arm size cold flexed just curious that's all
Thanks

I'm 6' 258 lbs right now, still have upper abs, but not sure of bf%, but my arms have always been my strongpoint? I'm a Highland games strength athlete, so I don't train arms that hard! but they are a shade under 20 cold and a shade over pumped. if I could figure out how to put a pic up on this fcking iPad I would. :) I'm no bill gates, that's for sure. neck is 19 1/2.

45 years old with 30 years under my weight belt.

not to spam this thread (sorry matt) but harold have you ever competed in the new england area for the highland games? I volunteer at a local one in new england every year in september.
 
What do they say an inch on arm for every 15 lbs weight gain or is that 15 lbs lbm gain for an inch on arms?
 
47 years young, 5-09, 245 lbs, approx 25% bf(guess) left 19.5 cold flexed, right 18.75. Never measured pumped but I'm guessing right at 20" left, 19.5" right.
Not much of a peaky bicep, but always had big tris. Been known to work up to 120 lb Dumbbell with tricep ext and pullovers.

I know bf is high by most standards but it's mostly in my lower back and love handles as I have some vascularity and my arms are hard. Recomped from 280 a year ago, and arms have gained 3/4" where most places are smaller
 
only 5,10" just under 200lbs, 17" cold flex mostly tricep lol wanting shredded 18z with a nice peak got 17"calfs aswell

So right now size on arms are hovering in the 17" range which is not bad at all. Now curious of guys natty or average Joe that walks around that doesn't hit the gym on what males arms are in the society of not working out

actually bro I haven't been to the games in New England. I'm in New Brunswick canada, which borders on Maine, so I have competed in Maine and a couple of other events in the USA. competed in a place called Topsham outside of Brunswick Maine recently, and I'm competing in California next month.
is that a big event in New England?

lol so have I.... but I'm also in post-op for my 2nd elbow operation...

Those are two exercises that my ex-Olympic coach said NEVER to go heavy in!

Yes, the tricep can handle it... No, the tricep tendon can't!
