For those who understand and embrace the difference, that is all.

Men have, on average, about 50% more skeletal muscle mass.

Men also have a more efficient neuromuscular system.
Rate of force development is determined in the womb and is not very trainable.

This is best demonstrated by the standing vertical jump test.
On average, men have about 50% higher vertical jumps than women, which means a much higher power to weight ratio.

Adding or taking away hormones from a person will not significantly change neuromuscular efficiency.
Nor will it change skeletal dimensions, heart size, etc.
