i'd say above average .
i've always been bigger and stronger then most of the kids my age. I am naturally about 225lbs at 6 ft, but a bit chunky. If i diet strictly i can get pretty lean fairly fast.
I got a big strong back, huge calves and fairly large quads, arms are'nt that big but i can handle that.

I have pretty good genetics. Naturally lean.
I am kind of right in the middle.I am not naturally a skinny person or a fat person.I dont have any problem bulking,I can gain a shit load of weight very quickly.I can also get pretty lean if I want to by adjusting my diet accordingly and doing some cardio.I guess I am happy with my genetics.

Slightly above average
I think alot of you guys are MISTAKEN good genetics as the ability to put on mass. I can pretty much get as big as I want or as thin as I want, simply alter nutrition and cardio. I mean who wants to baloon up to 280 w/ 17% bf... thats hardly impressive. I would rather stick around 225-230 7-8% bf.
When I think of someone with good genetics I think of someone with awesome peaks on their bi's, a FULL rounded chest, rounded delts, and V-shaped back, all 6 abs w/ cuts between all them, fully developed quads with a prominant teardrop, diamond shaped calves and veins running down their bi's and calves. All this while eating 2 fast food meals a day. Now thats what I call good genetics, not someone who can easily pack on pound after pound of off-season mass LOL

I like my genectics and at the same time I don't .
let me explain : I easily gain muscle mass and I am a very strong mofo, ok that is the good part.
now the bad : I can become a FAT ASS QUICKLY if I don't watch what I eat ....I have big a tendencie to get FAT and I have TONS of stretch marks that pisses me off ....
ALSO I hate my FRIGGIN CHEST AND ABS .....right now I am with 13.5 % body fat and 218 lbs .....arms are rock solid , shoulders are rock solid , back is amazing , legs are pretty good but my chest and my abs suck big time , most of my fat acumulates on my chest and abs ...so even when I was with 9.8 % bodyfat last year I had everything ripped but the abs and chest ....
damm , this sux .......I have to reach 5 % bodyfat to get ripped chest and ripped abs .......argggggggggggggg .....but I will reach it ......in my next cycle ....

I have no idea where I fit in. My weight is deceptivly high and most people who look would never guess me close to my weight. Do to that fact I am not as strong as my weight should prolly indicate. Due to childhood rhuemetoid arthritis I was never supposed to walk and my one leg is a bit smaller but im working on it. Not looking to compete, but would definatly like to turn heads in a crowd.

Symettry and shape
A lot of posts here are talking about size, but I think the most important genetic factors are symettry, proportions, and muscle shape since you either have these or you don't
Flex Wheeler or Bob Paris or Ronnie Coleman would have had fine physiques even if they'd never touched a weight. They're just outstanding examples of the human form.
I feel very lucky with my genetics and proportions. I've been training for twenty years and if my genetics were lousy, I doubt if I would have stuck with it this long. I see guys who work just as hard as me at the gym, year after year, and make very little progress. Maybe they're pursuing the wrong sport.
Good thing I discovered what I was built for, too! In school I was the worst distance runner ever. In gym class after a couple laps I weas lagging back with the fat girls.
Then I discovered what my muscle fibers were born for -- anaerobic lifting.
