thanks for the link
my point about the measuring is that in the other military survey, i believe they had subjects flare elbows slightly
Lucas Hughes
No, it's the same method of measurement, the only difference is that this study is older.
Which means that either gymceling is far more common or the percentage of fatcels is increased (more likely). It should be interesting to note that the average is higher in the US army study from 2012 than an equivalent study made on marine corps personell from 2010, which shows the same result as the NASA study with an average of 19.61", again another data point supporting the fatcel theory.
James Evans
Makes sense.
Another point worth noting is this NASA survey of 500 men from 1985-1991
ntrs.nasa.gov
this lists 21" as 99th percentile
hard to believe tho as 20-21" seems so common, but this can be attributed to the fact that most astronauts in the study were not weight lifters

>hard to believe tho as 20-21" seems so common
It's not, a medium shirt is still fitted for a biacromial breadth of around 410mm, which would give a bideltoid breadth around 500mm. 540+mm would mean most people were wearing L-XL shirts, which they clearly don't.
James Jenkins
Don't the majority of men wear L-XL tho?
Alexander Nguyen
Fatcels don't count obviously.

You are almost definitely not 23 inches unless you also happen to have a giant head (i.e. 99th+ percentile bizygomatic AND head breadth)
Lucas Johnson
Idk how wide I am but I'm 6'5" and plane rides are a bitch literally no shoulder room and my knee is in the next person's asshole lmao
