What happens to roid gut???????

[DanielPaul]

After the days of competing are over for a bodybuilder who has pushed his body to the absolute max and developes the severly distended abdominals and then downsizes to a maintainable weight what does the stomach do, how does it look, will it decrease in size some or are you stuck with it for life.

We don't really know. Aren't all the slin gut guys still fairly young?
It is visceral fat from insulin, one of the hardest types of fat to get rid of. It would take some serious effort and drugs
to eliminate it completely.

eh, i used to work at the same gym as jp until a couple months ago (he's now a trainer at a dif gym), and he still has some size. he's not 305 anymore, probably around 230. that's a bad picture. if i'd known a nit-wit like you would be here i'd have taken some pics with him to prove your ignorant ass wrong. your ignorance and stupidity (yes, both) border on fanatical.

Hey JP, welcome to getbig!

to answer the question.... when i was bigger, my waist pushed 41" with ab's/serratus, and those who remember me, remember i used quite a bit of insulin (and gear). Now, it's been about 5yrs since I used insulin heavily (i started using it again a year ago, but stopped b/c my body wasnt responding to it the way it did in the past.. i looked worse), and my 34" pants are loose on me and require a belt. i'm also a little leaner than i was in the past, and using a 1/10 of the gear, but still maintain between 217-227 at 7% (depending on how much food i can eat during my 13hr workdays at the gym)

i believe the 'roid gut' is from a combination of things.

(in no particular order)

Insulin
Food intake (insulin makes you hungry)
steroid use/oral use (liver enlargement... ever see an alcoholic's belly?)
heavy training... squatting, deadlifting, where you push your belly out against your belt
genetics... guys with long legs and short torso's esp..
