bigrand said:Its not just the increased body mass, its the fact that cardiac muscle hypertrophies just like skeletal muscle. When the heart muscle gets thicker and denser, it becomes less flexable and unable to fill and eject blood properly, so other chambers also grow to compensate, you get pulmonary edema and reverse heart failure (begining with LVH).
This happens to athletes wether on gear or not with no difference.
