[QUOTE="AbsoluteZ3R0, post: 80205, member: 15174"] I think the most likely explanation is that the strength and muscle mass increases from steroid use occur so quickly (relative to a natural lifter) that connective tissues do not have the time to strengthen in proportion. Not only are they subjected to loads they are not fit to handle, but they also attach to muscles much larger than what they are adapted to. What's interesting is that most of these ruptures actually happen outside the gym. I suspect that may be due to protection from trained motor patterns while performing certain lifts vs irregular and uncoordinated movements outside of the gym. [/QUOTE]
