How big were your arms when you began receiving comments about them?

[BeanTank]

14" no pump. feelsbadman.

Might start hitting them directly, only throw in like 2 sets for arms after a workout.

[ptheripper]

Mine is 14.5" in this pic. People say that my arms are way too big and I'm like "are you srs?".

[HarryFlashman]

I've got 15s and have received comments. Would no doubt get more at 16 though.
What are you doing to grow?

[Brahlinski]

13.9 inches.

Lolz. I got accused of steroids.

Looking back at it I lmao

14.5"? you sure bro? they look like at least 16.5-17"

[ptheripper]

I'm sure. It looks big because I'm 5' 6". I'm trying to get to 16"

[Re21za]

16inches....random comments in clubs @ 16.5.....now they are 17.5 no one says ****..dafuq??

[WIDGE_uk]

lean 15" will look good to most people.

if you are one of those people with 20% + bf who lifts weight you might need 16/17 to look impressive.

[Steak_n_Taters]

If you are vascular anything 15" and over will get you compliments.

[tech99]

14.5"? you sure bro? they look like at least 16.5-17"

hes 5'6

[RS07]

Lean and vascular 13"s get comments at school, probably because I've gone from 11"s to 13"s in 4 months lol. I hate my arms though. 15"s can't come fast enough.

Mother of god wtf... 3" difference in height but your arms look massive compared to mine. How the fuk is this even possible? I've got a small frame too so it can't be that.

I think this is a good point actually. Since fat covers muscle and not the other way around, when you are lean people are impressed as that means you have nothing but muscle under there. Whereas with higher bf%, people just assume you have a lot of fat making up your arm size, even if this isn't true.

And here, we see why this thread is retarded. It's all relative.

Ripped 14's on a short guy will appear bigger than 18'' fatceps on a tall guy.

[solidsnake2010]

I have long muscle bellies, but i would say 16". Probably because of my narrow frame.

[DarioW.A]

mine are 17.7 with noticeable bicep vein, no direct comments ever but alot of people wanna talk to me about lifting, i think they are about 2 inches though, i think around 19 is when i might acutally think they look ok, probably not though

[FabienStyle]

14.5" ripped (no fatcep) I started getting compliments 6'3
Started with 8" arms. I have very long biceps. Went through helll living with small arms for a long time, took me 3 years of serious lifting. My arms stay incredibly lean but I have the worst muscle building genetics. I've been tracking cals/macros since the start and everything with 4k bulks.

3" is quite a lot. maybe because I flex?

[sxxr]

13" with a noticeable vein.

[b1gsm0ke]

so much E-statting ITT lmfao..

as for ur question Opee, i got comments after 1 month of lifting

[Deadgoat]

17" people started coming up to me and touching them, 18.5" I needed a police escort

It's the downside of height - I'm the same way. Maintain 185lbs @ 3.5-4k calories, depending on how active I am. Can't even make myself eat enough to gain weight right now.

As far as original question, it depends on the clothes you wear. I get compliments on shoulders/arms all the time if I wear a tight fit V-neck or a tank, but if I wear a looser shirt or a sweater or something, the only muscle group that ends up noticeable is traps... and no one is going to comment on traps except another lifter lol.

Arms are 15.5" @6'3 with ~11% bf for reference.

[Hucking_Fell]

It really isn't. Your upper arm (assuming reach is proportional) is like half an inch shorter than mine.

13" with a noticeable vein.

Gooby pls. 14 year old girls at your school saying it doesn't count.

EDIT: Rest day today but now feeling small, thin, weak because of this thread. Must resist gym.

[SariMcat]
