    Guess these guys biceps

    Hi there
    I'm not to sure if i'm posting this on the right forum so if i'm not apologies. Anyway, basically i'm a film studies student and i'm doing a paper on body building in films. In one part of the paper i discuss how Arnold came along in films and changed how the action hero looked and how others followed after him but were never the same size. In order to prove this point i want to put the bicep and chest measurements of Van Damme, Stallone and Vin Diesel's against Arnold's. The only problem is i don't know their measurements. I found one Van Damme site it said his biceps are 19 inches which i think is way off. I thought i'd ask you guys as you all got pretty good knowledge of body building. If any of you could hazard a guess at Van Dammes, Stallones and Vin's biceps you would really be helping me out. Would i be right in thinking that around the time of Commando arnolds were about the 20inch mark? I know this is a bizarre post but if anyone has the time, could you please help me out

    If you watch all 5 Rockies, you see him get bigger. I would say they peak in either R3 or R4. Couldnt tell you the size though.

    All of them no more than 15-16 inches. Van Damme possibly smaller.

    I would put some pics up from R3 if I had em. He had to be 18" or more. Van Damme you can check out blood sport from 88' or kickboxer from 89' and I bet he has 18" guns. These pics seem to be when these guys were fairly young. I say 1985 for van damme and 85 for Sly.

    I don't know! For example he looks small in my avatar, but he is a HUGE CUT MOFO in pitch black and a huge bloated mofo in the fast and the furious!

    He's far from huge. But, huge is relative to your own size. What are your stats?

    I'm gonna say that at least for Bloodsport Van Damme had 17" guns
    He was in top shape for that one and had a little more size to him...

    yea bloodsport van damme was a big mofo... 17'' arms easy... stallone in dem. man or even rocky 3 was easily 17'' bis as well.

    i think the biggest actor out there will always be arnold. i'd like to see that brock lesner dude in some action flick... hes freakin enormous.

    I remember watching a special on The Predator, and I think they said that Arnolds were about 21.5 inches or so when he made the movie. Also, I wouldnt call Vin Diesel "far from huge", he is 6'2, and still a pretty big guy regardless.
