    Mine are 12" also. :sad:

    I've posted these before. Jamie's arms when she's cut and flexing.

    Jamie's arms when she's at a slightly higher body fat and not flexing.

    If you don't want her arms, don't go competition level lean (which ain't easy!) and don't walk around fully flexed.

    Precisely! These competitors don't even walk around contest ready.

    I wonder if that is the look that the OP is looking for as it was her post asking about how to get a certain physique.

    I don't want to look like that either. I'd rather stick with this -victoria-secret-models-5.jpg

    better start practicing your Photoshop skills then. Because even *they* do not look like that.

    I can just imagine how photoshoped those VS girls are!

    Yes those VS models are photoshopped, but they are also part of the very tiny population who are genetically predisposed to have the body/face/height combo they have. Models like them are born, not made imo. A much more unattainable look for most of us.

    ^ Both of these women (they are the two VS models in the center in the first picture) have two children, and both had a baby within the past 8 months.

    I can appreciate that you have a certain preference to how you want to look. Each and every one of us has a target body type that we are shooting for. Nothing wrong with that.

    My advice is always that same. Worry only about what body type you wish to achieve. Waste no time fretting about what you DON"T want to look like. Life is short, training is hard, and the road is long. You will NEVER look like what you don't wish to achieve because woman you don't wish to look like works day and night for that body. Her training schedule, her eating schedule, her supplements, even her sleeping schedule is all focused on having the body she wants.

    Way too many people think they are going to start some random training dvd or program and wake up one day with this 'EWW SO BULKY' body that they never wanted. Ain't gonna happen. Never has, never will.

    Spend all your time and efforts working toward your goals, not working away from someone else's goal.

    Very well said.

    Being afraid of getting big muscles is like wanting to start jogging, but being afraid you might run a marathon by accident.

    Both brilliant posts ^^^

    All due respect EA, but I'm not sure how this is relevant to the thread at hand. This woman looks great. I have no problems with her body at all. Nor do I have a problem with Eason's or Underwood's.

    But lemme ask you a question. If you wanted to look like the image above, would you say you wanted MUSCLES? Would you call this a muscular physique?

    I'd give my right arm to look like the woman in the second photo. Holy hotness and awesome body!

    it's interesting that some women think that being toned is something that doesn't involve muscle.. if you know that muscle is heavier than fat then why wouldn't you want to have that? i think that's beautiful and i would love to gain muscle, plus you have to really eat big to be big.. all you need to stick with is meats and veggies.. cause personally i don't like having to take my food as a pill/supplement..=(

    Women don't really get to decide whether we look too muscular for our own tastes at a certain body fat percentage or not. If you're naturally muscular and you get lean, those muscles are going to show. Just speaking as a woman who has muscles that show, whether I lift heavy or not.

    No , I'd call it fit. Slim and fit. You know I'm big on functional performance, yoga , swimming and so on. It gives me the body i like and can enjoy. Gyms bore me. working on playground stuff now. Fun! http://youtu.be/E3N-v5Y-2fs

    Sorry, I focus on how strong I want to feel, not how I look. As for food, if you want to get lean lean lean eat a lot of protein, some fat, and low carbs.

    I'd rather look at your pictures than at any of the models in this thread, and I'm a straight woman, and an artist who draws people.

    fortunately that doesnt happen int he gym, if you want a softer look its completely in your control.

    I don't go to a gym. I do yoga, and handstands, and chinups and pullups on a jungle gym at the park. I like the way I look so why should I change that?
