Why are my biceps getting softer?

[Britishgentleman]

My biceps are my favourite area to train. Just 10 years ago I had powerful 17.5 inch guns. This was so satisfying with my 6'4 frame. They stayed consistent in size between 30-52 years of age. They were cutting ribbons and I received loads of compliments on them especially during the summer. They screamed muscular and athletic whenever I flexed them. Now whenever I flex they feel softer and despite doing the same arm workouts they have shrunk by about 1.5 inches. Why is this?

I read somewhere it has to do with lowering testosterone levels. Something to research. Maybe talk to your doctor.

Well compared to my 9.5inch arms and 5'3 frame I’d say you’re still doing pretty good lol 👍🏻

That's pretty good for your height. My son has 12.5 inch biceps at 5'8.

Muscles deteriorate with age after a point.
