I believe you are wrong.

I don't remember exactly how it works, but the jist of it is that the heart is made up of a different type of muscle tissue and because of this it is not effected by gear.

Steroids can be bad for your heart, but that's due to indirect causes like elevated blood presure and high colesterol.

TweetYou're wrong, but not in a bad way bro Weight-lifting and cardio will enlarge your heart no matter what, steroids or not. It is a muscle, and when you put stress on it, it responds by getting larger... in particular for the heart, left ventricular hypertrophy. It's not sped up or made dangerously larger by gear, and the small increase in size from training is rarely anything but beneficial. The only bad things about gear are the blood pressure elevation which can hurt kidneys, and lipid profile changes which can lead to atherosclerosis, which can give you a heart attack. Only thing that will make your heart, which is involuntary cardiac muscle, not voluntary striated skeletal muscle, grow, is GH... remember Andre the Giant? He died young b/c of heart problems from his massive overproduction of GH. Gear, you're fine.

TweetYou plan on flexing your heart for the ladies?

TweetWhen i went to go see my cardiac doc when i was having my problems, she said that from the ultra sound the right side of my heart was bigger than it was suppose to, but she said that is common in ALL athletes and it is not dangerous. However, due to my stupidity from my lengthy M1T cycle, my left ventricular wall grew to twice the size it should be, and that is what is dangerous. however she said that once all the water got out of my body and my bp went to normal and my LDL went down then she was hoping that it would receed to its normal size. and if not she said they might be able to use meds to get it to receed.

TweetI've never heard of that degree of LVH, but then again, I don't believe any studies have been done on M1T's effects on the heart, it may have different sides than normal gear. All I know is, in moderate dosages, test especially is actually GOOD for the heart.

TweetSo I can go on and start my 4g of test a week cycle now?
