6/6/2025: Muscle growth potential

Your potential to grow muscle tissue is contingent on:


1. Fiber type quantity - Type 1 @ minimal potential, type 2A @ moderate-high potential, and 2X @ high 

    potential.


2. Training status - untrained @ high potential and trained/have already attained growth @ low potential.


3. Muscle volume (inherent muscle belly size before undertaking a strength training program) - small/thin 

    @ minimal to moderate potential, average size @ moderate to high potential, and large/thick @ moderate

    to moderate-high potential.


THIS IS HYPOTHETICAL DUE TO OTHER FACTORS SUCH AS CSN POTENTIAL, TRAINING EFFORT, AND DIET & RECOVERY BEHAVIORS.
