If you don't bulk up easily, you simply will not. I focus on lower back, upper back, abs, and to a lesser degree, arms and legs...lighter weight and high reps with 1-2 heavy days a month. I find that the abs/back/triceps work is most beneficial. I'm finding myself less fatigued when my abs and lower back can handle more weight/strain over hours of riding. Plus, I am less likely to get an injury.
