Myostatin and MyoD are skeletal muscle genes and electroporation is
local. IMO, the concern is the other way; non-genetic DIYBio muscle
growth has been going on for 60 yrs., there's plenty of non-clinical
evidence to suggest that rapid growth of muscle and decades of walking
around with tons of extra muscle (pharmacologically induced or not)
doesn't do your heart or connective tissues any favors. If I were 20
yrs. old, 6'2" and bulletproof, I'd probably try this, once my kids
are out of the house and I'm having trouble keeping up in the gym, I
might try something like this. Right now, it just seems like a bad
idea.
