The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

Seeing these pics (two extremes) and thinking about the Arnold/vitruvian convo w the Sak made me want to see if any of yall measure...

I've measured off and on and did so today so here's me.

Weight (this moring) 153.0
Height 5'-9"
Neck 15"
Chest 39"
Waist 31"
Bicep 15" (embarrassing)
Forearm 12"
Thigh 19"
Calf 15"

If nothing else I think I'll use it along with BF to measure changes.

 

I just wanna look like this. Fuck all them people that say "Just be yourself" I wanna be myself, but look like this

 

Perfect form swinging hammer curls

I walk into the gym on my hands

 

@ the gym yesterday...a perfect row of toyotas destroyed by a PT

 

It looks freaking huge man...what, if you don't mind saying, is the measurement?

 

I'm 5'8" (I think that plays a roll too lol) they are 17.5"

Chest 42"
Waist 34"
Thighs 25"
Calves 16" (hard to grow and I hit them hard at least twice a week)

 

I don't think 16" is small for your calves and you might be right about the height. IMO mine look, proportionally, nothing like the cat in the pic above. 17.5" looks pretty impressive in your pic.

 

Good thing dat dere furniture moving is so lucrative!

 

I stay out of these things but, gotta say, I really did LOL at this...

Earned me some funny looks from my co-workers.

 

I'm rich!

 

A cycle or 2 can do that lol his skin......lol

 

Im just over 5'11 222# atm
All measurements are relaxed standing at proper anatomical position measured in the mornings

Chest 49"---- could use another inch or 2
Waist 34"
Thighs 26---- would love to get to 28
Calves 16"---- 17 would be ideal
Arms 17"---- 18.5 would be ideal
Forearm 12 3/4--- need to get back to 14

Im also 25" across my back from left shoulder tip to right shoulder tip and have almost a 6'5 reach

 

49" chest! Pretty massive...10" more than me. I'm guessing cloths can be a bitch with your chest/waist ratio. Even tho it's a good kind.

 

chest: 42"
calves: 14"
arms: 15.5"
thighs: 21"

My arms have shrunk, but they look bigger now...low body fat FTMFW

 

My skin looks like that anyway. So it won't bother me. I'll NEVER not have acne... It's fucking bull shit.

But what I can have is... muscles... with acne. Better than no muscles and acne

 

Go see a dermatologist and get them to put you on Accutane. I did it last year for ~6 months and it's made a world of difference. I had pretty bad acne, like zits the size of quarters on my face, arms, chest, and back. Now I very rarely have any and if I do they are so small you can't see them and they clear right up. The medicine is a bit intense as you have to get blood work done once a month while you are on it but it really clears it up. The first couple of months it makes the acne worse and dries you up like a sponge out of water but then the last few months you can see it progressively get better and then poof clear. A lot of people are scared of it but both my sister and I did it and highly recommend it for people who have acne and can't seem to shake it.

 

Similar size as me except you look so much different (better).

I didn't even notice that cat had acne...

Same dude, didn't notice in your pics at all.

I'm 50 and have never really had what I consider an acne problem but, STILL occassionally get the rogue zit. When it happens, they're massive.

From what I see in the pics, I wouldn't sweat it...

 

Ys, the biggest issue is actually suites. No standard over the counter suite fits me right at all. Before my last knee injury, jeans and dress pants was also a major source of frustration. Im currently still suffering from allot of what seems like patella femoral pain in form of what feels like tendonitis. Its actually quite annoying so the legs have shrunk a little allowing me to fit most of my pants again and quite comfortably ahah

 

Feels like...100. Actual air temp 91.

Got a good work out this morning but my 2 mile XC was...warm. I work out in my unairconditioned garage and have a decent fan but, the run...my cloths were literally dripping with sweat.

And here's my big 15 inch calf.
