Others are born well muscled. Eat junk and grow fast.
You remember big guys in Hs…born thick muscled big bones.
Grow like weeds.
That said. Skinny little bast ards like me can add muscle. We just have to work 3x harder than the naturals.
I bet it works reverse too. We are not all created equal for muscle gain or weight loss etc. But no way some slim fellow can go and acquire a football body with just work and foid.
Hard gainers are what they call guys like me…
We have different kinds of bodies but no one has to be all weak or all fat.
That said I’d prefer to be big. Just naturally big. But I’m not.[/quote]
Exactly. And there are people out there who can eat 4,000 calories a day and not gain weight (and not intentionally work out much), while others will gain weight by eating 1,800 calories per day.
Of our three kids, two were born with more fat and no muscle definition at all. One was born muscular — literally had six-pack abs as a baby. The muscular one eats the most, by far, but is still very much in the “normal” weight range and has no fat deposits. The others eat less, but have never had defined muscles anywhere on their bodies, and all get the same amount of exercise.
I’m calling total BS on the “diet and exercise” nonsense. It might take years, maybe decades, before science catches up with reality, but I’m willing to bet that we will find that genetics, hormones, and environmental factors are every bit as important as diet and exercise.
