He's a strooooong man
Have I mentioned Ben's arms? He has been experiencing pretty awful knee pain for more than a month now, and is using a cane or crutches to get around. But Ben has not given up on the gym. He's doing upper body exercises. His arms are probably as big around as my calves (and I have muscular calves), and they just keep growing.
Update, 7:20 a.m. on Dec. 11:
Ben insisted to me last night that there was no way his arms were as big as my calves, so we measured, and he's right. My calves are 13 inches in diameter, and his arms are 12 inches in diameter. With all the exercise he's doing, however, his 12 could soon surpass my 13.
