roid gut

[kazman32]

What exactly causes "roid gut" ? and can it be reversed? Not that I have a problem with it, just wondered what causes you to look like your 9 months preganant when your bf is sub 5% ie...(lots of pros).

i thought it was GH that caused the gut

It's probably more likely the GH and IGf-1, not the aas.

im pretty sure its the gh making there organs grow which makes there stomach stick out like that.

it isnt the gear, its GH.
thats why you look at bodybuilders PRE-90's era and they all have flat midsections, slim waistlines and lean faces.

Another thing that can cause "Roid Gut" is the fact that some pros bulk up so much in the off season that they store viseral fat around the organs and not just under the surface. This also tends to push the organs out. Plus having the genectics for a thick waistline does not help.

like graybass said...it is also because of the massive calories the pros and even people on this boards, myself include..we take in perserve our muscle mass...it causes our stomach to stretch...if i cut back on calories to cut up ...my stomach shrinks and my waist and stomach gets tighter

I think it has to do with enlargement/stretching of the large intestine due to BB's stuffing themselves while on cycle.
