Milos or Guy
There are one or two people debating this quite heavily I thought I'd ask someone who might know, here is what is being said (I don't have an opinion, I'm just interested to hear the truth).
From Johnnyapollo (basically the crux of the discussion).
"I know several people who have used Synthol in the past. It's injected into the heads of the muscles to cause oil to enter the muscle and then after a few weeks it naturally dissipates. Once it dissipates there is a room left over where the synthol used to be,REAL muscle can be grown there. The temporary hollow area is a highly anabolic environment which causes the muscle to naturally "fill out" and fill the area that the oil used to be. New muscle fibers form to fill the area within a few weeks and then you have actuall real muscle replacing it.
This guy has IMPLANTS. There is NO WAY this can be caused by simple synthol injections. I won't repeat myself again...OIL DISSIPATES. Any sort of liquid injected into the muscles or which forms in the muscles dissipates. Anyone who's ever injected testosterone into therself knows that it dissipates."
Anyway, thoughts?, Does this mean that oil must be regularly injected in? To me the thing that casts doubt on full dissipation is that it is clear at contest time when someone has gone too far. Why then would they turn up to the next contest with obvious oil usage again if it were necessary to repeat application?
Shawn if you delete this, I'll haunt you, I'm interested to know about it, let it be For reference he was referring to a picture of

But I'm more interested in borderline cases of pros who look like they have slightly overdone things.
