i see quite a few big and lean dudes lifting medium weight for 8-12 reps and there arms are huge. how is this even possible? i do the same thing and my arm does not look like this. is it because im to lean 8% bodyfat dude i need higher body fat to get bigger?

You can't relate how heavy they are living to muscle size. How long have you been training compared to them? To develop big arms takes time. It is also a factor of many things. Eating, routine, and genetics. Others contribute but those are the main ones.I wouldn't dwell in it. Focus on what your doing and give the weights hell. Nothing else you can really do. Keep it up though.

What do you consider high reps? I doubt the accuracy of this. I see big guys all the time doing 6-8 reps on average with heavy weights. Any articles to support? And I mean all the time. Im there 5 days a week. I see all the other regulars and what they do. I actually have taken some exercises from some of them because they are new and different. Definately a learning experience.
