There was a gym where I belonged that had a non-muscular-looking trainer. The other trainer told me that he was a vegetarian, so he didn't gain a lot of muscles. However, when it came to actually lifting, the trainer told me how amazed he was at how much strength he had for his size.
Perhaps, then the mass of muscle does not have a 1-to-1 correlation to the strength of the muscles? Perhaps it's possible for some smaller muscles to be stronger then some bigger muscles?
