In any sport - in fact, in any part of life - it's a true that certain people have more talent in specific areas than the others. In the same way, bodybuilding champions are made, but also born. You have to have the right kind of genetics. You can't train to change your skeletal type or proportions (although you build bone strength and size when you do muscle training). Keep in mind, that what kind of genetic potential you have is not always obvious. Sometimes you need to train for a few years to see what kind of potential you may ultimately have deep inside.

And it's also a fact that the "race doesn't always go the the swift". Sometimes you need to overcome obstacles to develop to your full potential and it is often the case that the most gifted bodybuilder does not always learn to work hard enough to rise to the top in bodybuilding.

But whatever your genetics, the kind of training you do is what influences the type of muscular development you achieve. To be a really good bodybuilder, you need to create muscle shape, and this happens when you train every part of a muscle or muscle group, at every angle possible, so that the entire muscle is stimulated and every possible bit of fiber is involved. Muscles are really aggregates of many smaller units - bundles and bundles of fiber - and every time you use the muscle in a slightly different way you stimulate different combinations of these bundles and activate additional fibers. The bodybuilder attempts to achieve total development of every muscle in the body, to create the fullest possible shape in each muscle, to have the muscles proportionate to one another and to achieve an overall symmetry that is as aesthetically pleasing as possible.

Developing the body this way requires a complete knowledge of technique. You may want to change the shape of your pectoral muscles, peak the biceps more fully, or achieve a better balance between upper and lower body development, but these results do not come about by accident. So the best bodybuilders are those who understand how muscle tissue works, how training actually affects the body, and what sort of techniques lead to specific results.
