Thank you both AlexG and cpbell for sharing your obviously vast knowledge on the subject.
Again due to the variation from person to person, I've read that some women naturally have higher than average levels of testosterone. I wonder what effect that has on the ability for a woman to naturally build muscle.
Also, whenever I see a woman with massively developed calf muscles but with otherwise average muscularity, I wonder whether she's only just genetically predisposed to having good calf development or whether her other body parts would quickly catch up if she started weight training.
… Guys such as our wn AlexG who BB naturally are
1. Comitted and incredibly hard-working
and
2. Are genetically predisposed to building large muscles.
And don't forget gals like our own Ashlee ;). Unfortunately for women there's 3. as well:
3. Be willing to go against the social convention that women should not be muscular.
It broke my heart when I heard Brooke Shields saying recently on David Letterman, "I can't do any sort of weight-training or else I would turn into the hulk…". Man, what a waste of amazing muscle-building genes.
