Why would you expect the arm bones of a weight lifter to be thicker and heavier than those of a jogger?

The larger arm muscles of the weight lifter would apply more mechanical stress to the bones of the upper limbs. In response tothat stress, the bones would grow thicker. For similar reasons, we would expect the jogger to have heavier and thicker thigh bones.

What is a labium?
Labii is Latin, meaning 'of the lip'. For example "Levator Labii Superioris" is the muscle that lifts the upper lip: Levator = lifter; Labii = of the lip; Superioris= of the upper (genitive to agree with labii). The base form of the word (the nominative) is labium; the plural is labia.
What happens to your body when you play sports?
So imagine that you start running. Here's what happens: * The muscle cells burn off the ATP they have floating around in about 3 seconds. * The phosphagen system kicks in and supplies energy for 8 to 10 seconds. This would be the major energy system used by the muscles of a 100-meter sprinter or weight lifter, where rapid acceleration, short-duration exercise occurs. * If exercise continues longer, then the glycogen-lactic acid system kicks in. This would be true for short-distance exercises such as a 200- or 400-meter dash or 100-meter swim. * Finally, if exercise continues, then aerobic respiration takes over. This would occur in endurance events such as an 800-meter dash, marathon run, rowing, cross-country skiing and distance skating.
Are blacks stronger than whites?
NO. With every power lifter, worlds strongest man and olympic weight lifter being white, how on earth are people still stupid enough to ask this question? Africans live on the Equator where they can source their food from vegetation which does not run away of fight back. Europeans must eat animals in the winter and are descended from Gladiators and knights of the realm who wore metal armour and used metal weapons. However when training the same way as any other race they do seem to gain muscle and speed much faster than other races, even training half as hard. Africans especially african americans seem to be physically dominate on average over other races, this could be from slavery where africans were literally breed like cattle to b stong and resilient where other races died off including white slaves. Also after research africans did have many warrior tribes from the kemetics down the nile to the nubians, zulus etc who preformed seemingly impossible feats for initiation such as killing lions with their bare hands (not sure if i believe it) but it does give testiment to thier physical prowess. Finally alot of body builders and power lifters, friends of mine (i body build) do seem to believe africans get gains much faster with little effort, when i pointed out powerlifters (worlds top are usually white) , most usually responded but blacks don't really compete, the very few times they do they usually place close to the top or win, mark henry for example. Why blacks dominate sports and why we are afraid to talk about it is a good read. Polynesians also seem to b pretty strong btw.

Yes it can, but try to isolate the sound by using some thicker weight oil and/or oil additive like lucas to quiet the ticking lifter. If the noise doesn't change it's probably an exhaust leak, if it quiets down you might have a collapsed lifter.
