| what % do muscles volumize when flexing?
I know this might be a strange question, but I'm wondering approximately how much larger muscles get when you flex them.
I realize that different muscle groups might swell more or less, but I'm curious if anyone has a ballpark

If you flex, then you are contracting, which will make them look smaller. therefore the volume decreases!
