there's studies conducted on it but they're kind of botched because in the examples they used everything past or below 1.6 looked deformed.

Steve Reeves for example, was known as one of the most symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing bodybuilders of all time, even though he was not “huge” by today’s standards.

Reeves wrote about ideal measurements frequently and was always striving for his idea of perfection in this regard (and came close to achieving his own personal ideal). One of his criteria for ideal proportions included having his arms, calves and neck measure the same.

• Arms: 18.5 inches
• Calves: 18.5 inches
• Neck: 18.5 inches
• Thighs: 27 inches
• Chest: 54 inches
• Waist: 30 inches

In his “classic physique” book, Reeves said his formula for “ideal proportions” was as follows:

Muscle to bone ratios:

• Arm size = 252% of wrist size
• Calf size = 192% of ankle size
• Neck Size = 79% of head size
• Chest Size = 148% of pelvis size
• Waist size = 86% of pelvis size
• Thigh size = 175% of knee size
