[Hulkster]

Because you're an idiot

  Worst gut of all epochs was either Jean-Pierre Fux at the 1996 European Grand Prix shows or Ronnie at the 2004 Olympia.

I think the 'GH gut' is a distant relative of the beer belly.

Where else in life do we witness men with distended guts yet showing few signs of fatness elsewhere ?

yes, both are caused by visceral fat, in between the internal organs

NarcissisticDeity posted this picture of Ronnie's gut in 1999.

Naturally I stole it.   



How is it that we are all so certain that it is the GH which causes the gut?  I'm sure Gunter uses more GH than you can shake a stick at and his stomach is flat.  A lot of other top pros have no problem in this area - e.g., Chris Cormier.

I have two friends who have never touched steroids, much less GH, and have distention.  My stomach is such that I can't either suck it in or stick it out.  It remains perpetually flat.

I think more than anything it is genetic.  Or at the very least, you need a genetic predisposition in order to later develop a gut through GH use.

you can't suck your stomach in or push it out because you lack diaphragm control.  It is a matter of coordination not anatomy.
