Respectable bicep size?
Ok, sorry if this sounds like a stupid question. Just wondering what you guys think is a respectable size for a guy's biceps. Respectable in the sense that they don't look like puny fu*****.

In other words, you should ask that question in proportion to a certain height and weight.

Yes. For 5' 11", 175, 16"-arms are respectable. If you're very cut, your arms will turn a few heads at that size.

18+... otherwise you need to work on your legs... larger legs... = larger bi...

Anything 18+ at a solid weight is respectable.

Oh didnt read your size, it'd say a 17 inch arm, cut up would look pretty impressive on that frame.
-
04-15-2005, 10:39 PM #22
for my height 6'3 Id say 19 inch bi's are respectable.

What is the typical size gain for biceps immediately after a first cycle? Can I expect 2 or 3 inches?
Cycle looks like this: 300 mg test en/wk for 10 weeks, 200 mg deca /wk for 10 weeks, an as yet unknown amount of d-bol or var for the first 4 weeks.

Hmm...maybe this will help. My flat bench is 205, 6-8 reps for 3 sets. Again, that's at 5' 11" 175.

Even if no one can give me a guesstimate, I'm still very interested in hearing about some of the personal experiences in this area of the bros here.

If you take in a lot of clean calories, train, and rest correctly you will do fine.
But as you say "I'm just curioius. Just like everyone here" that's not true........ With my first cycle and the other two I was more focus on over all gains..... I think that's how a lot of guys here think........

I can do 210 for 3 sets with a slightly reduced amount of reps.

So I'm able to push about 120% of my body weight.

My bench went from 305lbs for 3 to 355lbs for 3...... At the start of the cycle I was just over 170lbs at 5'7 and ended at almost 190 very solid. Over all..... every lift was up.

Again, I am interested in overall gains. Right this second, I'm just curious about how these overall gains will effect the size of my biceps. I believe I'm already putting equal effort into each area of my body, and will continue to do so while on cycle.

I'm 6'0 and have 16 inch arms cold, they look tiny so im hoping to get up to 20".
