So these women just grow leg muscles without working. out how strong are they then. because this would be almost like a super power when you think about it. and it would be very useful and fun if you are very strong despite not putting in any effort.
It's a very rare disease , since that we don't have enough girls to measure it
@yotv: Lipodystrophy is not a superpower. Some people with lipodystrophy build extra muscle; some have extreme muscle wasting to the extent that they are severely disabled. More importantly, depending on the cause, the inability to process lipids can put people at risk for arteriosclerosis, pancreatitis, and liver failure. This American Life did an episode a few years back about a woman with muscle wasting who has a mutation in the same gene as Priscilla Lopes: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/577/somethin...
When I was younger, I was filled with awe because the muscle looked so cool. It was only after I got older and read a little that I realized just how unfortunate this disease is. It mainly affects women, it shortens their lifespan, and it's incurable. Sadly, this disease is far from a superpower.
Agreed. But they still look beautiful to me.
Let's see how women you see out there with lipodystrophy. This girls never lift and looks more anabolic then pro.
