Will my muscles grow faster as I get bigger?
Sounds interesting, but not the case. All of the natural bodybuilders I've known, interviewed, worked with or read about agree that as they train more and gain more mass, it becomes more difficult to gain more mass and their gains come more slowly.
For example,
Dave Goodin:

"In 19 years of bodybuilding training I've put on about 30 lbs. of muscle. That's less than 2 lbs per year on the average. I compared notes with another friend, Kirby Sams, who is a WNBF Pro. He's put on about the same amount of muscle in about the same amount of time. Certainly, you have good years where you put on more, and bad years where (because of injuries) you fight to stay even; but the process is slow. People get false expectations from reading magazine articles that say "put an inch on your arms in 6 weeks" or " gain 10 lbs of muscle in a month". Those things just don't happen (we're talking about solid muscle not fat)."
