Who has the biggest (size) disparity in their forearms?Bibberz 06-07-2006, 01:37 AM It would probably be someone with a one-handed backhand. I don’t think Federer has ever worked out his left arm in his life. Sampras was a freak show as well. Anyone else come to mind? This thread is admittedly inane, but I’d still appreciate your input. Fed=ATPTourkilla 06-07-2006, 01:42 AM Nadal. Bibberz 06-07-2006, 01:56 AM I wouldn't say Nadal since both of his arms are massive. ChloeLove 06-07-2006, 02:02 AM I have noticed that Ferrer has a large *disparity* in his forearms. zine56 06-07-2006, 02:03 AM Gonzo Fee 06-07-2006, 02:04 AM Roddick, freakishly uneven a few years ago, but they seem to be getting a little closer in size lately. jole 06-07-2006, 02:10 AM Jimmy Arias did. flip_fan 06-07-2006, 02:31 AM i think most single backhand players do.

I've played about once a week for 15 years, and I've even got a tiny difference in forearm muscle. Bibberz 06-07-2006, 02:42 AM Well done, flip_fan. That picture of Mark is ri-goddamn-diculous. MisterQ 06-07-2006, 04:01 AM Laver Pigpen Stinks 06-07-2006, 04:06 AM Not sure about now, but Vilas was renowned for the difference in the size of his forearms. K-Dog 06-07-2006, 04:07 AM yeah, Laver. i have the same problem. my right arm is bigger than the other. admiralpye 06-07-2006, 04:56 AM Nadal when I saw him in Shanghai. Big disparity between his arms, although both are muscled. But surprisingly, his muscles aren't that obscenely big as they are on TV. He's quite lanky. But in a good way, of course.

It is true, he does not look that big in person, in fact, he is slender and nicely built. David Kenzie 06-07-2006, 09:15 AM Vilas forever_rafter 06-07-2006, 09:36 AM Nadal :eek: partygirl 06-16-2006, 05:56 AM Roddick, freakishly uneven a few years ago, but they seem to be getting a little closer in size lately. :aplot:http://www.menstennisforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=91993&stc=1 flip_fan 06-16-2006, 06:06 AM recent pic.. lol, still pretty obvious.. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y132/jemma82/71147001.jpg madmanfool 06-16-2006, 06:08 AM :) even i have a rather big difference in my two arms, i get laughed at it some times :d You don't really need a single handed backhand, although they usually have huge underarms like corretja and ljubicic BlakeorHenman 06-16-2006, 06:19 AM This is obviously an elaborate ploy to start a hot, popular thread and get vcash... charlie666 06-16-2006, 11:41 AM This is obviously an elaborate ploy to start a hot, popular thread and get vcash... :rolleyes: BlueSwan 06-16-2006, 01:42 PM Felix Mantilla Blazed 06-16-2006, 09:19 PM This was on CNN/SI's website today: http://i.a.cnn.net/si/2006/more/06/15/halle.federer.ap/tx.roger.federer.getty.jpg Bibberz 06-17-2006, 12:58 AM That picture of Federer definitely shows a big disparity. I think the difference between Federer and Philippoussis is that Mark probably works out both arms outside of tennis while Federer probably does not. As for that earlier post, this was not an attempt to get vCash. I haven't been a MTF member for very long at all and I'm not even sure how that stuff works.... Norrage 06-17-2006, 06:59 AM IMO most players have that unless they just work out a lot and use their left arm at least equally much... I have a bigger right arm than my left arm too, when I just looked at it now...Never noticed it :D williaer 06-22-2006, 02:09 PM Wow... Richard's is pretty big! I guess the one handed backhand would contribute to the size difference... but yeah, it's quite large. Darran 06-22-2006, 07:20 PM I agree with the poster above who said Alex Corretja, his arms were just mad. DhammaTiger 06-22-2006, 07:26 PM Vilas's left biceps are much bigger than his right one, it was like that 10 years ago when I met him. scarecrows 06-22-2006, 07:41 PM I wouldn't say Nadal since both of his arms are massive. but you said disparity Nadal certainly has it superandy88 06-22-2006, 07:46 PM Andreev! tangerine_dream 06-22-2006, 07:54 PM Laver Yup yup :eek: http://bmarcore.club.fr/tennis/annees-60/laver-133.jpg And Roger's left arm totally freaks me out; it not only looks small compared to his right arm but it looks like it's dying on the vine, atrophied and withering away from disease. :scared: http://i3.tinypic.com/15ces60.jpg Interestingly, not many of the women players show as much such disparity between their arm muscles. drf716 06-23-2006, 02:29 AM one is more recognizable than the other and none more than roger's freakish arms. | |
