stomach bloat

Does the distended stomach evr go away following disconitnuation?? I know for this year's Mr Olyimpia, "growth guts" are going to be marked down. So unless that goes away with time through discontinuation, good ol' ronnie coleman is gonna be marked down for his belly.

As he should have been for the past 10 years.

I think that the internal organs probably do lose some size after completely discontinuing GH, but I highly doubt it returns to normal.
 
When you push the imits of body size this is unavoidable, to some extent, barring exceptional genetics. Of course growth and IGF exasberate the condition but seriously when the body size is increased to 50% more than its natural size the organs that are needed to process the nurtients to sustain this size will grow (sometimes unproportianately) to the size of the body. Unforunately in the world of 300lb body builders, big guts will be the norm. If you want more asthetically pleasing physiques then they will be smaller, as in the younger days of bodybuilding. This is physiology and you really can not get away from it, aside from maybe using an IV to supply nutrients, or rare gentics.

And people wonder why BBers die young .. Like i said before,i think AAS is probably one of the best things a BBer does for himself,as long as they are reasonable about it

This sounds like the biggest load of crap Ive heard.
 
actually Bob..it is because of little microscopic elves that enter the body via syringe and build elf towns in our organs...according to studies they are known as anabolic elfs....they attack our organs such as intestines, liver, lungs and heart....that is why aas is illegal and dangerous..if you get a anabolic elf in your body, they build and your organs grow...until the point of emplosion and that is why we die from aas...

I stayed in a Holiday Inn express hotel.....

well Bob, everyone has an opinion but if you ever get a chance ask a doctor about this. preferably an expert on physiology, however there are not that many good ones around, that is why I say ask a doctor they have limited knowledge but this is a pretty simple concept. I guess another way to say it is the stomach and digestive track will grow to accomodate the rest of the body. just curious as to why you would say that it sounds like a load of crap? It almost sounds too simple, but it is true and is clearly represented by evolution of bodybuilding.

I think GH follows the evolution of BBing, not some theory of growing organs because of high food intake or high bodyweight.

Do you have any substantiating evidence for your theory that internal organs grow because of high body weight?
 
I thought it was from the high levels of visceral fat caused by the high levels of cortisol .. AAS block cort receptors,body fights back by increasing cort,years of high cort increase viseral fat .. something like that
 
In regards to studies, it is a standard part of medical practice. For instance when they do partial liver transplants to asses the volume of the organ they can extract from the donor the calculation is based off the BMI. Basically the larger the person the larger the liver.
 
Also as bodybulders we forcefeed ourselves excessive calories to grow and maintain our size and doing this is will make our digestive organs grow. Add to the fact that most of us our classified as obese (regardless of bodyfat) due to our high BMI. Basically our internal organs our bigger and a 300lb bodybuilder will have a bigger gut then a 250lb body builder with all other things being equal such as height and skeletal structure.
