A member asked:

If you were born with joints that sublux easily and greater than normal rom, is the result bigger than normal muscles due to needing to stabilize body?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not typically: People with joint hypermobility are not typically more muscular. In fact, people with extreme flexibility may have genetic conditions affecting their structural proteins; these people typically are very tall and thin, with relatively slight builds.
