Why it's difficult to build muscle naturally

[Fr12]

It's not only because we don't produce huge amount of testosterone. Myostatin plays a huge role. It's a protein that inhibit muscle growth. Human's evolution "chose" to use ressources for brain power and body stamina/endurance. It explains partially why we outbreeded stronger humans like Neanderthal.

Perfect body for surviving in the wild:

No huge amount of muscle because it consumes too much calories. Smart enought to use tools. Lot of stamina/endurance

But it's not ideal for attracting women.

By using roids and eating huge amount of foods, we are fighting against our genetic, and it's mainly to attract women

WOMEN SEXUAL SELECTION PUT US BACKWARD

Women could lead humanity to extinction by being too hypergamous and choosing taller and taller males, to a point where males will be too tall and get back problem and heart diseases.

NOT JOKING CHECK WHAT IS FISHERIAN RUNAWAY

By the way, just have Myostation defficiency theory:

I think it's just genetic.

I don't work out and yet i still have some visible muscle on my arms and back.

Yes it's difficult to build muscle past the noob gains stage without roids or elite genetics.

Still by training you can be much bigger and stronger than untrained.
At 17 i was the same height and about the same fat amount as now, 74kg.
Now at 24 i'm 92kg.
15kg of muscle gained, also i'm at least three times as strong in my upper body, also way stronger legs. Still weak by elite powerlifter or bodybuilder standards ofc but way stronger than the average person.

With no training i'd be much weaker and worse looking than now.

Gymcelling isn't cope.
