Myostatin inhibiting?

**liftw8t** · 10-07-2010, 02:06 PM

Okay been doing some research and I understand now many of the genetically gifted bodybuilders we admire actually have a deficientcy which would be a myostatin deficiency. Anyone know of any good myostatin inhibitors or blockers?

That's the billion dollar question that several major pharma companies are busting their asses to produce. There is nothing that will be available for at least a few years.

True. And even when is "available", unless you're a billionaire you won't be able get it.

I'm pretty sure for right now, it's just a result of a genetic mutation, and only a lucky few get it. Damn.

Soo your saying some of these bodybuilders of today are born with a genetic mutation that allows them to get that big?

I was under the impression that they were already taking so called "myostatin blockers/inhibitors"

and if it is from a genetic mutation how does one know they have it? They work out and cycle for years and just realize they cannot stop getting bigger lol?

Here's a good article I found on the topic.

I read somewhere that inhibiting myostatin could cause a lot of bad effects as well?

There is no reason to believe that any pro BBer has a myostatin deficiency. There are a few guys that have one, but they don't take advantage of it.
