That’s something you hear in the gym a lot of these days.

4. I can add 2 inches to my arms in little less than 2 weeks
These types of outrageous claims have shamefully become the standard in modern fitness and bodybuilding magazines and internet sites. The guys you see will be presenting their training programs, will have humongous bodies, superior genetics with a surplus of testosterone, but of course, there’s no way you could have known that because he already said he was completely natty.
Various groups of people, spanning all demographics have become fooled by these money-making schemes. Sure, some of the workouts presented do make for a superior training session, but claiming that it will your arms grow 2 inches in just 2 weeks? It’s not going to happen.
