In college, one of my buddies gave me some stuff I honestly didn't know what it was at the time or just didn't care to check. Hit the gym very hard for about 4-6 weeks and no joke I gained 25-30 pounds of muscle. Forgot the name of it bc it was so long ago but basically a PED. I stopped after I realized and continued to work out, didn't really gain much after that but a year later I stopped working out for about 6-7 months after college when I started my first job and lost all that muscle. He is on something, you don't lose weight that quick if you workout naturally

Oh wow, you worked out for a few months in college so you have all the answers. Please.

yes, lifting and taking steroids. Are you this defensive of your team or this gullible? I can't tell which

Neither one. The pictures don't prove he was on the juice. Get some evidence, then we'll talk.

I know if I was Gronk then I'd intentionally drop the weight after I left the NFL.

Guy has had back issues and the Patriots Way really wore on him. He could've been on PEDs but I dont think weight loss is necessarily suggestive of that.

He'll come out of retirement and catch passes from Brees

This thread makes me laugh.

First Gronk could still be a very good TE at 250#. Maybe not the blocker he once was but still effective in the trenches.

25-30 #s of muscle in 1 to 1.5 months:rolleyes2: sorry I have to throw the bs flag right there.

Even juice related it's not possible.

It's not like every pound Gronk lost was made of muscle. And it's not like if he decided to come back and put on 15 pounds going from 250ish up to 265 or so, it would have to all be muscle. He's got the frame and strength to carry extra weight.

Could he put on 15 in a month, month and a half? Possibly. But it won't be all muscle. He'd have to be a carb eating machine while limiting his cardio along with putting some muscle back on.

You're the one who brought up the #25-30 of muscle saying he could do it in 6 weeks or less.
