I don't think you realize that muscle is mostly water. Believe what you want but facts are facts and you are incorrect.
Exactly correct!!!
The Skeletal Muscle
Muscles make up 30 to 40 percent of the human bodyweight. Their composition is 75-80 percent water, 15-20 percent proteins, 1 percent glycogen, 1 percent lipids, 1 percent mineral salts... There are two sorts of muscles : striated ( skeletal muscle, myocardium, etc ) and smooth muscle.
Guys get too obsessed with the idea of "real muscle."
In this sport of bodybuilding, what you see from these freak mass monsters is primarily intracellular water induced by HGH, insulin, AAS, and lots of food. Stop using them all and watch what happens. Stop lifting weights and muscle cells bleed water after day #9. Several months later you have Victor Martinez looking like a fitness trainer at best. Look at Ramy's legs now vs. sept. Much respect to Ramy for having the intelligence to give his body a break for health reasons. There is no legit freak anywhere without at a minimum lifting weights a few times a weeks. Stop weights, muscles bleed out intracellular water. Stop AAS, HGH, Slin, same thing. Even SEO's must be used at a minimum maintainence dose to retain size, unless you are talking PMMA which is similar to silicon implanted beads that muscles encapsulate causing permanence.
