alt Hacker NewsA lot of us with mesomorphic physiques (I am not an ex-football player but my dad played for Syracuse in the The Express era) can be very physically active and muscular but still pretty fat. Lots of us have metabolic syndrome and heart trouble (my dad died in an accident, but all my uncles have received stent and stent, i'm hoping being proactive with medication et. al will head that off in my case)
Yeah I know bodybuilders manage to get jacked and many of them are doing nothing but maintain their body and are taking anabolic steroids and thyroid hormone and stimulants and who knows what.

People in pro sports take PEDs.
>can be very physically active and muscular but still pretty fat.
you can retain higher muscle mass at higher bodyfat% like Sumo Wrestler.
being lean limits amount of lean mass you can carry.

bodybuilders who take PEDs do not easily gain fat because steroids change nutrition partitioning.
also, some bodybuilders take DNP, clen, t3 etc... but many bodybuilders also do hours of zone2 cardio.
