Cardio on roids?

hmm interesting the heart is a muscle. I would assume making it larger and stronger would be benificial. People living in higher altitudes naturally have a larger heart. As they need to take in more air in order to get teh same amount of oxygen. Of course, I would keep in mind that I don't think it would grow too much since we aren't training it w/ weights or anything. Cardio on juice to make the heart bigger would be like lifting your arm up and down real fast to build bigger bis. Nothing is being torn up nor would I want my heart to tear even microscopically.
Your missing the point enock enlargement of the heart cuases the heart walls to be come thicker and less flexable cuasing it to work much harder in times of excellerated heart rates. It has to pump faster when the walls become THICKER like any other muscle because it in turn cannot hold as much blood inside due to the loss of volume capacity space from thick ness causing it to have to pump faster that normal to move the same amount of blood as before. Causing incresed heart rates in every activity you do. It sure makes it hard to do cadio with a insufficint heart and sometime in extreme cases of heart enlargement it can cause heart attacks or complete cardiac arrest resulting in death (most cases) or states of unconsciousness (if your lucky). That is all I have tiem for at the moment I may check back on this one lata...

your body has three muscle types - fast twitch, slow twitch, and smooth.
fast is for sprinting and lifting heavy shit.
slow is for endurance (the red meat on animals).
and smooth muslce is the involuntary muscles such as your diaphragm, heart, and your various sphincters in your system.
steroids will attach to receptors in the fast and slow twitch muscles - they won't do jack shit to your heart.
they are shown to raise your blood pressure and perhaps lower the good cholesterol in your system while you are on (both of these fix themselves once you come down). due to these, it would be good for you to do cardio - it strengthens your cardio/pulminary system (heart and lungs).
also, the only negative thing I can say about cardio is that you can force your body into a catabolic state and lose muscle mass - but that is if you are natural.
one of the good reasons to use steroids is that you can lift and do cardio and it won't hurt your gains like it would if you are natural.
as for organ growth and heart enlargement, you might be getting steroids side effects mized up with extended use of Growth Hormone.

I remember reading that with an enlarged heart, it may not have enough blood in it at all times, causing undue stress to it. Just what I read one time, but I am not an expert in this area.
Yes It would be the Gh that would cause this. It is a known fact that Gh is responxible for the organ enlargement that you see in many bodybuildes today.(the belly you get from it) That is a result of enlarged organs. Just be glad there is the synthetic version now...THe older version was much worse for you and had much more severe sides. (Giantism, gapped teeth, blocked head, Bone thickening, oran enlargement and many other but these are the most common.)
