The Bodybuilding Physique ) ...
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.
