I was wondering if severe insulin resistance leads to Palumboism?
Maybe, but it's probably more influenced by other factors. There is a large number of "normal" people with severe insulin resistance. Paumboism seems to be unique to drug using bodybuilders.
Because they are obese we don't know for sure if they have distended abdomens. But there are many cases where those that do adapt a healthy lifestyle and lose the weight end up with fairly normal looking bodies (except the extra skin).
