Which do you think looks bigger/better?

[legend05]

A 18" arm at 16% bf or a 16.5" arm at 8% bf?

[Liftnainez]

depends on what your going for.. MASS or the LEAN look.. I would say 16.5 @ 8% bf hands down..

[legend05]

Thats what i wanted to hear! Jst looking for some motivation to keep on cutting!!

[Liftnainez]

yea bro, defintely keep on the cutting track.. I dont find it impressive at all when I see BIG/THICK guys with no defintion or shape whatsoever.. I could eat everything I saw day in and day out and get to their size over time.. you see much less people who are really lean and in shape.. I rather be one of those ppl..

[MoneyAddyct]

Agreed. 16.5 @ 8%

[mwolffey]

leaner is meaner imo

[PROTEINSHAKE]

that leaner arm looks just as big... & better IMO

[steve0]

this totaly depens on how tall you are and how the rest of your body is built.

depends on who is stronger in my opinion. Looking strong and actually being strong varies. This is the typical debate between bb'ers and strength athletes. As a strength athlete I say the bigger the better! Mass moves mass!!!

[tonytone]

believe it or not, i like the bulky look..to me, there is a big difference in how big i look when i have the same muscle mass @ 16% compared to a lower 12% or so

[shortie]

When it comes to arms bigger is almost always better, even at the sacrifice of a little defeinition. JMO

[jollygreenGIANT]

how about a 19 inch arm at 3% bf!!!! that would be greatness...i wish i could get/stay at 3% all year round and still be healthy

[NCNPC29]

A 18" arm at 16% bf or a 16.5" arm at 8% bf?

16.5 at 8% definitely

[dedic8ed1]

lean physique and cable like vasculirity with rock hard abs beats size every time without question.

[NCNPC29]

I hear ya...I'll definitely sacrafice a little size for a lower BF%...I've been up to 270 before at 5'7 and looked thick as a house but my lord I felt like I had one foot in the grave!!! lolololol (probably actually did)

shredded is better than a tub of cheese. unless your datinga really fat chick then it may go hand in hand to be a tub

[jef]

keep cutting. there's too many fat people out there. maybe it will motivate them too
