	2005/02/18, 09:23 AM i forget what it's called but our bodies naturally have this mechanism to prevent muscle growth around certain areas like wrists...myostanin...it generally prevents our muscles from getting overly large... http://www.ast-ss.com/articles/article.asp?AID=85

I don't know what I am doing as from what I am reading it seems the underside is what would increase, but this is the opposite. Does it maybe have something to do with the boxing?? -------------- Veda MISERY IS OPTIONAL ***When you are up to your ears in trouble, try using the part that is not submerged. ***The difference between a dream and a goal is a plan.
