any truth to it?

[kaukasion]

i dont know about you or your situation
but i always hear people say that i could get big easier than a lil guy
what do you think it is realy any easier for a taller / heavier guy to get bigger with weight lifting

i dont believe so but i would like some opinions
discuss

larger frame
slower metabolism

 

[b fold the truth]

It takes TIME to build a muscle. If you are TALL, LONG, and WIDE..it will take you longer to look HUGE compared to a smaller person. But...when you are finally big...you will be HUGE.

Indeed it's likely that you have greater potential and that it will take longer to achieve your full potential.

One thing I've noticed and really stands out with the really strong guys I've seen on TV and otherwise is that they tend to have big, thick wrists and large hands.
