after 232 responses we are at 14.75, feels like we are approaching our final value. Always to be taken with a grain of salt as compared to last time we have 46% more 20 inch+ enswers and 40% fewer 11 inch- answers. Some folks may have overcompensated haha

I had a lot of trouble with bullies as a child and started working out when I was 11 years old. This was in 1967 before working out was popular. I have never stopped. At their biggest my biceps were a bit over twenty inches, but at that time I have to admit I was carrying some extra weight. Now I am a bit over nineteen. Well see how long I can keep this up as I age.

I'm 13.5" arms / 5'9 / 9% BF - so I do look athletic but small.

My fiancée is 12.5" arms / 5'1 / 11% BF - so even though she is significantly smaller than me, she LOOKS more jacked.

Which I enjoy, of course.

An interesting data point on my end... wondering if others have had similar experiences.

Earlier this year I measured my biceps at 15". But over the past 2-3 months I've lost a little over 20 lbs (intentionally). Now they measure just a bit over 14". That's kind of disappointing, although I have a bit more definition than I did before.

I've been lifting during this period - not going too crazy since I've been in a calorie deficit - and I haven't lost any strength, so I don't think I've lost significant muscle mass.

I didn't expect that it'd make this much of a difference, as I don't carry much fat on my arms and legs; my fat distribution is more like a vest, uniformly distributed around my torso.

I've changed to a slightly different split which more aggressively targets the arms (hitting biceps, triceps, and delts twice a week, with a third occasionally thrown in for fun). I'm slowly approaching my target weight (not looking to get too cut; I prefer more of a maintainable "strong" look with a little cushioning all around), so I'm gradually increasing calories toward maintenance levels, and hitting the weights a little more heavily over the winter.

Hoping to get back to 15" by next year, just not without the extra fat. At one point in my 20's I was approaching 16". Not sure whether I'll get back there in my mid-40's. I also have somewhat smaller bone structure; my wrists are barely 7", so 15-16" looks pretty big on me.
