Haha you powerlifters are all about how much weight you throw around, but you tend to look like ass, so whats the point?. beating up your joints to say you can lift 3x your bodyweight, but look like you sit on the couch and eat Big macs all day

Its certainly possible but i dont beleive you put on 45lb of straight muscle sans fat and water weight in 4 months. what do you have to show for it? probably nothing.

I gained 40 pounds in 5 months, no idea muscle to fat to waterweight ratio, and stayed relatively lean with abs still showing, so im not impressed

Well I got a shit ton of trophys I can make into lamps :lol:

and yeah I had a six too Been athletic all my life. I have no reason to lie about this my entire family is like this my twin Neices are already seting state records at 8 respectively one for gymnastics and the other for swimming. But now I'd rather just go fishing. I'll post up some picks when I have time to scan them at the library.

So is there even a way to stop balding or na?

Yes.
From my research (I live in the USA), there are two methods that might slow, stop, and/or reverse balding that don't require seeing a doctor:

- Nizoral 1% A-D (anti-dandruff) shampoo
- Minoxidil (Rogaine)

The Nizoral 1% shampoo contains 1% Ketoconazole, which helps combat balding. A 2% shampoo exists, but requires a doctor's prescription in the USA. Nizoral shampoo starts showing signs of being effective between months 3-6 of use, but the biggest improvement is seen between months 6-15, according to a study. [ http://www.hairtodaytheretomorrow.com/nizoral-shampoo-for-hair-loss/ ]
Minoxidil can show improvements for hair in up to six months. Minoxidil is the only FDA approved OTC treatment for male pattern baldness.

The rest of the methods require seeing a doctor.
Doctors can prescribe these drugs to help combat hair loss:

- Finasteride (Propecia)
- Dutasteride (Avodart)

Finasteride and Dutasteride can cause erectile dysfunction, however...

Special doctors can use these treatments for hair loss:

- laser treatment
- surgical hair follicle transplant.

This thread has GREAT info, I believe: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=142250361

I am going to start following his "noob hair restoration" technique and start with both:

- Nizoral shampoo
- Rogaine foam

Those two alone should show hair growth.
