Starting Measurements

OK, if I'm going after the physique of Sandow, then I need an idea of the man's measurements. So, I was able to find these at the Sandow Museum:


Eugene Sandow's Measurements
At age 35 (1902)
height: 5'9 1/4"
weight: 202 lbs
neck: 18"
chest: 48"
biceps: 18 1/2"
forearm: 16 1/2"
wrist: 7 1/2"
waist: 30"
hips: 42"
thigh: 26"
knee: 14"
calf: 18"
ankle: 8 1/2"





Mr. Low Body Fat's Measurements
At age 36 (2008)

height: 5'11 1/2"
weight: 188 lbs.
body fat - 8%
neck: 14.5"
chest: 40.5"
biceps: 13"
forearm: 11"
wrist: 6"
waist: 30"
hips: 38.5"
thigh: 23.75"
knee: 14.5"
calf: 14.5"
ankle: 9 "

Well, it looks like I really have my work cut out for me, eh? To see Sandow's pictures is one thing, but when you take a closer look at his measurements, this man was a built like a damn Mack truck! That's cool because it simply motivates me that much more!

It's time to go Get some!!
