Genetic
potential for building muscle
Our potential for building muscle is determined by our
genes. There are a few genetic factors that make a difference in how well we
build muscle. The number of muscle cells, the length of muscle bellies, our
muscle fibre arrangement and muscle cell types all combine to make up our
overall genetic potential for building muscle. No matter how much training
is done we cannot override our genetic predisposition we can only make the
most of what we have!
The main
genetic factor for muscle building is the number of cells present in each
muscle. Some people naturally possess more muscle cells than others which
gives an advantage in building muscle size and strength.
For example, if Mr Small has 1000 cells in his biceps
muscle but Mr Big has 2000 cells then Mr Big will have naturally bigger
biceps because more cells take up more space. He also has the potential for
great strength too. If he used all his muscle cells to curl a weight he
could potentially curl more as Mr small only has half the number of cells to
use. Imagine 5 men attempting to pull a huge vehicle but they cannot pull
it. Then 10 men attempt to pull it and succeed, well Mr Big just has more
men in his biceps! Mr Big also
has the potential to gain much more muscle size than Mr Small. If both men
doubled the size of all their cells Mr Big would gain more volume because he
possesses many more cells.
Never compare yourself to others!
No matter how genetics determines your potential to
build muscle never compare yourself to others. It can be easy to believe
others are doing the correct training or taking the right supplements if
they seem to growing quickly, its especially tempting to listen to them if
your progress has waned lately. The simple fact is they probably have better
genetic potential allowing them to gain muscle no matter what training
program they follow. If you
have low genetic potential you'll never develop a 60 inch chest or 20 inch
arms, however you still have the physical ability to produce fantastic chest
and arm musculature, with bulging biceps, immense triceps and veins like
steel cables bursting just under the skin.
There are some top body builders who only have 15 inch
arms. Remember its not just about the physical size its about development,
taking what you have been given to the extreme in muscular development!
