OC Inhibits Muscle Growth in Women?

I just read this article over at Daily Science. The results of the study is shocking! I hope they research it more in the future, to get to the bottom of whether or not taking the pill prevents women from building muscle.

The study was preformed by the Department of Health and Kinesiology at the University of Texas, and the Human Energy Research Laboratory at the University of Pittsburgh. Their findings showed that women who did not oral contraceptives, gained a whopping 60% more muscle over their OC taking counterparts, over the course of the ten week study.

They will have to look in to this more but if you're a woman who has difficulty achieving the sexy toned and defined look, it could be your birth control to blame.
