the thread of proof.
MORE PICS ON SECOND PAGE
i dont know how many threads ive seen on here turn into (hypothetical) pissing contests starting with a questioned stat..a measurement, a weight, a lift, ect..considering an internet claim is nothing more, than an empty claim...I figured why not start a thread shedding a little tangible proof on the subject. Have a lift people doubt, or might doubt? post a pic or a video of it here..a measurement, a stat, anything you want 2 shut people up about, prove them wrong, or just dignify with evidence backing up what you say, post it here.
so let it begin..
Ive never been questioned or called out my stats, but ile post this anyway. and know that any other stat of mine anyone wants proof of, just ask.
a pic of my arm with a tape measure around it..with a full pump I can get them up well over 20..i took this measurement after a few sets of pushups and a light bi work out..its at 20 right on.

You never answered my last question in your other thread. Do you compete with equipment, and if so, what stuff do you use?

Nice arm man, I think you would lose at least an inch if you cut... what are they with no pump? About 19"? Awesome job.

LOL I never doubted you Tank, but thanks for the proof. Now the rest of us mere mortals have to head for the gym in desperation.

thanks for the compliments everyone..but post your pics as well if you have anything 2 prove..
my arm is a little under 19.5 unpumped...after an arm work out with a full pump, they are like 20.5(ive always gained an inch on them after an arm day)....the lightest ide ever cut down 2 is 220(im in the high 230's now) so i doubt ide lose anything..maybe a quarter inch tops...they maintain size well..ive dropped 20 lbs and barely lost anything on my arms..and thats when they were 17.5.....they look really soft in this pic tho...bad light.
anyway thanks again.
peace
tankus

Like I give a ****, it's no excuse for carrying around that much extra fat. "oh but he's a powerlifter...". **** you, you should know better than to use that weak **** as an excuse. just because you're not a bodybuilder doesnt mean you get to stop paying attention to how disgusting looking you've gotten.

He doesn't care about what he looks like. Why do you want him to develop an ego problem and start becoming obsessed with self image. However, he might just cut to get down to the 220's.
Tankus, please answer my earlier question in the thread, if you don't mind, or PM me the answer.

Typical reply from a PL. You're either 150lbs of skin and bones or 250lbs of fat.
Powerlifters don't have ego problems at all. I mean arching you back, taking a super wide grip, lowering a bar 2" and then you call that a bench press.

You're right, let's encourage him to not care about what he looks like :-) What a wonderful idea :-) Who cares about making an attempt to look decent and not obese, we don't want to become "obsessed with self image" :-)

Why do you care anyway, Sw1tch? Do you have some sort of sexual fixation with tankus but can't get over the fact that he's not exactly cut? Would you like to see him lose some fat so you can masturbate to his 20 inch arms and ripped 6 pack? Please tell me, I'm dying to know!

That's not the point. The point is that he only wants to concern himself with trying to get a bigger squat, bench, and deadlift. Trying to look good by cutting will hinder his ability to do that. If he wants to cut to get down to the 220's, that is fine, otherwise there is no point in doing it. None at all.
