Title: Increased number of muscle fibers - Belgian Blue beef cattle
Post by: The Italian Lifter on September 20, 2012, 05:26:17 AM
Belgian Blue is a breed of beef cattle from Belgium. The Belgian Blue's sculpted, heavily muscled appearance is known as "double-muscling". The double-muscling phenotype is a heritable condition which results in the increased number of muscle fibers (hyperplasia) rather than the normal enlargement of individual muscle fibers (hypertrophy).[3]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belgian_Blue


"The truncated myostatin gene is unable to function in its normal capacity, resulting in accelerated lean muscle growth"

"a calf that is born with two times the number of muscle fibers at birth than a calf with no myostatin gene mutation"

"an altered composition of body weight gain which includes increased protein and decreased fat deposition"

Imagine all this: you don't even need to juice with all the possible health and legal problems...

Looks like Wolf is a cattle/human mutanto.
Maybe his sugar mommy visited the blue balls bull park in her teens.

Guess what??
The genetic mutation is noted. You can also have partial mutations and variability in involvement in different muscle groups according to penetrance.
The next best thing-- alter the myostatin pathway from inception to end stage-- Combo Rx.------
IGF1 + follistatin.
