I'm curious looking at their pics, How big do you think Yates and Haney's arms were before the injuries because it seems like they shrunk after 1993. I'm thinking about 19 inches. Any thoughts?

If you think Yates had 19'' arms you would be very, very wrong.

I guess i was thinking after 1995. I can see him having 20 inches in 93-95. What do you think then?

Yates has stated straight out of his mouth at one of his talks that his arms never got over 19.5" at their largest.

Was that at his seminar? This is why I respect Yates so much. Atleast the guy wasn't shooting oil in his arms and other parts like so many of the pros are doing today.Originally Posted by Emmortal

Not a clue. I dont think it really matters because both of them had arms proportionate to their bodies. Dorian's wernt even that bad after the biceps injury it was only ever visible in one pose. Before that he had a great pair of arms its a shame he ripped one.

valuable thread alert!!
Both of their arms measured 12.5 inches around.
I know because I wrapped my penis around them and it just fit.
Now back to our regularly scheduled program........................All great men have one thing in common.
Wish I knew what it was.

Dorian arms weren't 19'' inches in his prime, I'd say at least 22'', Lee Haney probably less, like 20'' at the most maybe 21. But don't be ridiculous, 19'' arms is no where near the size of Dorian's arms.Originally Posted by asbrus

Doesn't really matter about arm size when you think about it, because if that was the case then mike matarazzo would of won the olympia numerous amount of times. At least Yates and Haney compensated the issue with a tremendous back, symmetry etc..

IF he said that, it was what the british call a wind up.Originally Posted by Emmortal
There is a printed interview in one of the early 90's muscle magazines where he stated he had 21.75 inches in the off season.
Since he is surely the most straight talking no bs pro of his era I'd be inclined to take his word for it

Probably 19.5 was his max on stage and 21+ WHEN HE WAS AT 310 POUNDS - there is and has always been a lot of **** talked about arm size, for example Arnold claimed 22 when he was measured at 19.5 by Arthur Jones at Nautilus. Arnold`s arms were never as big as Sergio -they were thinner but more peaked -Bertil Fox was renowned for his arms and has been recorded in print as saying his arms were NEVER above 18 inches (he was not very tall so i find this believable). I always thought Haney had a much more balanced physique than Arnold, Arnold`s bicep was out of proportion to everything else and his legs were way behind which is what i think has led to whole generations of non competitors training arms and chest to the detriment of back and legs.Originally Posted by asbrus
