I was just doin a little bit of thinkin and i came up with this thought. I'm not possitive, but i believe that the heart is a muscle. Now, if you are engaging in intense cardio while using a/s, couldn't ones excellerated heart beat and excess blood that is being pumped into the heart cause it to become enlarged and lead to problems? what are your theories?

I believe that cardiac muscle is different from skeletal muscle in that it does not have many androgen receptors. Therefore it is unlikely that steroids would cause the heart to grow much. Although there have been reports of steroid using bodybuilders with enlarged hearts, the same can be said of athletes in many other sports that have never touched a steroid. ------------------ IP: Logged |
