This is why.Originally Posted by nateg123
Gain up to about 150-160+ & you'll see a difference. At 5'7, 132lbs nothing is going to look big.

It has to do with low body fat percentage.
I'm pertty sure that at that weight you're going to have low body fat but your arms probably aren't that big. So when you flex, the definition become obvious, and definiton/low bodyfat always = the appearance of having more size."A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."

If your arms don't look big flexed then they aren't that big now are they?
