downtroad Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 This is great science! http://www.newscientist.com/channel/health/mg19125671.800 Imagine beefing up your body at the gym and then keeping it that way with a simple pill - no more workouts required SO YOU joined a gym, stuck to your training schedule and, even if you say so yourself, you look good and feel great. In just a few months you have gone from weedy geek to muscular athlete, with biceps bigger than Madonna's. But there is a catch, of course. To stay looking this good you'll have to keep lifting those weights. Before you slump on the couch in despair, help could be at hand. Researchers studying how muscles build up and break down believe they are close to creating a drug to stop the body dismantling muscle when we stop using it. Their aim is to tackle weakness in the sick and elderly, and to help make long space flights feasible for humans. However, such a drug should also make staying in shape that bit easier - a boon for couch potatoes and, of course, would-be sports cheats.

Exactly, but this pill will make sure you always have that body... pretty cool if you ask me. 15 years well at lest you did it the old-school way and didn't use steroids.
