Die Folgenden Ted Williams
Check this kid out: born with a rare mutation, his muscles just don't seem to stop growing because his body doesn't produce the protein myostatin. "Not yet 5, he can hold seven-pound weights with arms extended, something many adults cannot do. He has muscles twice the size of other kids his age and half their body fat." Scouts from the NFL are no doubt knocking on his door. As Will Carroll points out in his column today (ya gotta pay to get in), we're at most "five years away" from this becoming the next steroids. And the best part is it's undetectable and permanent. Of course, the question you have to ask yourself is, will the tendons and ligaments grow equally strong to withstand such a load? My last car, a '94 Ford Thunderbird, had a great, powerful 4.6L V8, more powerful than the year before, but it kept the same transmission as the previous model year. That, it turned out, was a mistake, because it required two or three overhauls before I finally gave it the boot two years ago.
