[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1517792, member: 27490"] There is a positive correlation between muscle volume and bone mass. Muscle begins at an origin and attaches at an insertion. Generally, there are tendons at both ends. The more available bone mass, the more muscle that can be supported. Obviously, there is a balance. Bone mass without corresponding muscle is a negative. That is the negative of dairy breeds - large bone size and bone mass but without corresponding muscle volume. What breeders try to achieve is a balance in providing the carcass quality that packers demand. Fundamentally, it is desirable to select enough bone and frame to produce an acceptable volume of muscle. [/QUOTE]
