question with gear and heart

[bigduck]

when running on gear does your heart get bigger and if so how much bigger? does it go back to normal? and would gear that doesnt put on a lot of size not expand your heart (anavar, winny, halotestin). i just thought about it and it sounds like a problem that i havent seen alot posted on. thanks to all for informed answers.

I believe the heart issue is not due to "Muscle" per say. There are 3 types of Muscles in the body, Skeletal, Smooth and cardiac. I believe, but do not quote me (I will research it), Ass do not affect cardiac in the normal anabolism way. I believe the effect on the heart is due to the fact that steroids increase the concentration of sodium and water in the blood. This makes the heart pump and work more.

One thing id did leave out, is that the cardiovascular issues can be associated with changing the levels of lipoproteins that carry cholesterol in the blood.
