Ismail started lifting weights at age 10 and decided to train harder after he began getting compliments on his muscles.

Ismail trains six hours a day and can lift 500 pounds.

Although people often compare him to Popeye, Ismail says that in reality, he hates spinach.

This bodybuilder's record-setting biceps could destroy you

We’re betting nobody picks a fight with Egyptian bodybuilder Moustafa Ismail, at least not once they've seen the photos in this gallery. He’s now the reigning titleholder for the world’s biggest biceps and will appear in the 2013 Guinness Book of World Records. These muscles are a massive 31 inches around — thicker around than many people’s waists. Ismail, the son of an Egyptian wrestler, moved to Massachusetts in pursuit of world-class training facilities; he now trains six hours a day and eats four pounds of meat, four cups of almonds, and three liters of protein shakes to maintain his muscles — which probably don’t get enough of a workout at his day job, pumping gas.
