Does building muscle depend on you body type?

No. Classically, there are three body types: ectomorph, mesomorph, and endomorph. Most people are a combination of two types (for example, endo-mesomorph or ecto-mesomorph). Some bodybuilders such as Arnold Schwarzenegger believe that the kind of training one does should be designed according to one's body type. Even if that is true, however, it does not follow that building muscle depends upon your body type. On the other hand, in general, some people find it relatively easy to increase the size and strength of their muscles and some do not. The key is not to worry about other people but to concentrate on training intensely so that you maximize your own potential. Regardless of your body type or genetics, you have the ability to decrease body fat, to increase the size of your muscles, and to become stronger. ----
