Difficulty Building Arms

Bruh. I know. I know. Like you, I also underestimated the shittiness of my genetics, because it shouldn't fucking be possible, right? Something else must be clearly wrong with this loser. But I checked everything else, I did, and then I paid smart and educated people to check, and by all accounts everything was textbook. I had it dialed in. And I successfully grew my legs, my chest, my shoulders, even my back a bit. Yet here I am, average height, 14" arms at my fattest, 13.5" on the beach. Yeah. That's after trying everything, trying as hard as I could. I've got nothing else. Though I do come from a line of physically frail and weakly men, and I'm turning 40, hormones in check or not, so there's that. I remind myself of all the other ways I've been extremely fortunate in life, and I'm grateful for all that I have, but man... I really, really worked for this. Any measurable progress at all would have been something. I'd take 14" lean, I would have been happy. Anything. Anything. I don't even want to train anymore. Fuck this shit.
