You can tell if you have long or short muscles by flexing your bicep and seeing how many fingers you can put between the crease in your elbow and your bicep. short muscles - 3-5 fingers. long muscles 1-2 fingers.

I've also noticed that the majority of female non-elite long distance runners get very bulky in the leg area. I have MANY (girl)friends where this has occurred. I try to run behind the semi-elite women, who aren't emaciated like the pros and have great asses and legs to run behind...
