    Yeah, something is definatly wrong.
    Back in my "big" days, I never worked my forearms but, simply gripping weights, ropes, and handles was enough to give them pretty good definition.

    I think it has to be either implants or an altered image. There is no way training to make ones arms that big would leave the forearms that small.

    That's just gross :sick:

    *shakes head* I'll never understand what people do to themselves in order to look good in their own eyes. Google Darryn Lyons a British 'celebrity' who had abdominal implants :sick:

    ^^^^

    It's oil you inject under the skin.

    Quite amusing that the artice makes no mention of that just "yeah he eats loaads of chicken every day"......lol

    Plus he's about 30% bodyfat.

    WTF? Are they full of fluid? Does he have a heart condition causing severe edema? That just does not look okay. Looks like they jiggle.

    From wikipedia...

    Non muscle-developing methods

    Some bodybuilders, particularly at professional level, inject substances such as "site enhancement oil", commonly known as synthol, to mimic the appearance of developed muscle where it may otherwise be disproportionate or lagging. This is known as "fluffing".[33][34] Synthol is 85% oil, 7.5% lidocaine, and 7.5% alcohol.[33] It is not restricted, as it is ostensibly sold for topical use only, and many brands are available on the internet.[35] The use of injected oil to enhance muscle appearance had previously been used in the late 19th century before being abandoned due to health risks such as sclerosing lipogranuloma. Its use was revived more recently by bodybuilders.[36][37] Use can cause pulmonary embolisms, nerve damage, infections, stroke,[33] and the formation of oil-filled granulomas, cysts or ulcers in the muscle.[37][38][39] Sesame oil is often used, which can cause allergic reactions such as vasculitis.[40] An aesthetic issue is drooping of muscle under gravity.[35]
