A member asked:
Do your arm muscles deteriorate faster if you have long arms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Long arms appear leaner and the cross sectional bulk will appear more or less prominant dpending on the ligamentous tie downs at your elbow (a genetic thing). If you strength train, you will model your muscle bulk, even if the visual effect is mild. The same goes for loosing muscle.
