How do they all have that square jaw? I've read that 'roids contribute to it but i dont see how. Or is it just from a lot of cardio and low carb dieting?

not to flame but can you step back and look at your Q, what would possess you to ask if tons of cardio and diet caused your facial features to change? Truth is, it's from Growth Hormone

They're mesomorphs, too. A square jaw is a mesomorphic feature.

OK, the reason I asked is because I didn't know the answer and was looking for one. If I had known, I wouldnt have asked. but dont worry, no flame-offense taken though.

Little Dexter is half the size of Coleman but his jaws appear wider than his head!Some times you gotta add that poundage, and beat that muscle up!

it just depends on the person. plus when you're all dieted down your skin is like shrink wrap on your face. it makes it look more pronounced.

it is genetics insofar as the initial shape, but it is also genetic on how people respond to different chemicals, ronnie has a gut, that may be what is growing for him rather than his forehead and jaw.Originally Posted by AlxandrTheGreat

Why do you think so many athletes on HGH suddenly need braces?

His body has changed obviously but his face looks the same. Despite the retarded face he's making in the 92' pic you can see his facial structure remains the same other than aging taking it's toll. You also gotta think about how much bigger his neck is.. A wide thick neck will give an illusion of a more squared jaw.Last edited by AlxandrTheGreat; 12-11-2004 at 07:46 PM.

Maybe they get braces because they finally have a dental plan.Some times you gotta add that poundage, and beat that muscle up!

i always wanted to ask this question, why do Jays face still look so flabby and meaty even though he is ripped to the max come contest time ??
In comparison, dennis james and dexter's face always look so depleted and their cheek just sunk in when they are ripped ??Last edited by hardcore_freak; 12-13-2004 at 04:30 AM.

The square jaw is probably part of the genetic set that bodybuilders have. Its not a coincidence that they all have square jaws. A cardio reference is appropriate in that low bodyfat percentage is likely to display bonestructure of the face.Massbattlers I'm:

testosterone can also make your jaw grow so combine that with GH and a wide manly jaw can be yours too
