where IS water weight, in the muscles or around them?

[BigMan65]

when one gains water weight,

(lets use an example of a dbol cycle)

where does this "water weight" collect?

is the water in the muscle tissue, or in the fat, or even somewhere else?

Water retention is under the skin (sub-Q) where intracellular fluid is fluid inside the muscle cells...D-bol will will cause both...intracellular fluid is good, it increase the appearance of muscle and also leverage which allows to lift heavier weights, Sub-Q water is just dead weight...

[BigMan65]

thanks, when one losses water weight, perhaps a short while after the dbol cycle.....do they lose the water in both sub-q areas and intracellular ? or just one or the other?

[MIKE_XXL]

Both...
