According to the Greek: (http://www.sandowmuseum.com/ideal.html)

Enter your wrist size and it computes the rest. It's crazy.

My wrist is 9 inches around...you guys can look it up and look your own stuff up too.

EVERYONE POST YOUR WRIST SIZE TOO!!

Dan-

That is a very cruel trick to try and get people to break the tape out like a bodybuilder. I hate to admit that I did it. Didn't match up at all dude. I guess I'm not a greek specimen. Here is what it sayed I should have:



ENTER YOUR WRIST SIZE IN INCHES 7.5 My Actuals
(Here's what it sayed:)-----------------------------------(I guess I'm not Greek.)
Your ideal chest size is 48.75 ------------------------------ 59

Your ideal waist size is 34.125----------------------------- 38

Your ideal hip size is 41.4375------------------------------ 42

Your ideal bicep size is 17.55----------------------------- 19

Your ideal forearm size is 14.1375------------------------ 16

Your ideal thigh size is 23.8375--------------------------- 28

Your ideal calf size is 15.575----------------------------- 19

I have 8.125 wrists.

Should have 28 inch thighs mine are 31 1/2 or so
19 inch biceps, mine are only 18, but I never work arms
Waist should be 37, its closer to 41-42 lol
Neck should be 19.5, its 21
Calves should be 18, they're 19

I have a really weird body. Huge shoulders and neck, Really big thighs. Small arms and a big chest. But my legs are out of proportion hugely, always have been.

8" wrists, I'm pretty close on most of these. Neck and biceps are a bit under, waist and thighs are a bit high.

Brian Brouwer

Hmm, Im pretty close in everything except calves. I hate my calves :EP: oh, my wrist was 8.25 at the smallest piont. I wonder what some big 300lb+ fellas who are lean have for a wrist, 10''?

The guy that i powerlift with has 6.5" wrists and is 5'10" 270lbs fairly lean.
He has a 600lb bench at 40yrs old and back in his younger days had a 825lb squat with the old marathon suits.


There's hope for us small wrist guys, it just might not come as easy
