I think it makes sense...after all, high levels of testosterone contributes to hair loss. And weight lifters tend to have higher levels, I think. I'm not a doctor or anything like that so I'm not sure if my logic is correct here.

Bull Sh*t, Horse pucky, I noticed that the scientific source is one of the Sly Guys worst enemies, "Rogers Medical Group, a practice specializing in hair transplants, said in a statement. "There's no doubt it is often a factor in hair." Well, I, for one, think their "research" is daffy.
MPB is genetic, and there are a lot of people who train who have hair, after all everyone can't be lucky enough to be a "natural" sly O0.

It must be true because I lift weights and I'm bald. Or maybe I lift weights because I'm bald. Maybe a bald head causes weight lifting??? :D

Lack of funds transferred to my bank account has been linked to hairloss.
If you have never sent money to me, there is a chance that you will go bald if you have not already.
Tests have shown that money in my bank account causes me to have feelings of joy and happiness this in turn allows me to project these feelings or "Good Vibes" as they are called throughout the world not only to be received by you and your loved ones but others as well. These "Good Vibes" combat the negative "Bad Vibes" that have been considered to possibly be linked to baldness, reciting hairlines and even bologna spots.

The more we get, the more we can help... potential hair regrowth is just a phone call away. If not for you, do it for the ones you love...

I have to concur with BJM. Makes a great deal of sense.

MPB is genetic, and there are a lot of people who train who have hair, after all everyone can't be lucky enough to be a "natural" sly O0. It's common knowledge that steroid and growth hormone use cause MBP and the likely mechanism is the increase in androgens.
Weightlifting itself increases androgens, which is why muscles grow. So it follows logically that MPB would occur too.
MPB is multi-causal in nature involving both hereditary genetic factors and environmental factors.

The causes of male pattern baldness are thought to be complex and are not completely understood. However, as suggested by its medical name (androgenetic alopecia), male pattern baldness seems to involve both hormonal (androgen) and genetic factors. Many different types of hormones play roles in the regulation of scalp hair, but the hormones with the largest effect are the androgens. Testosterone and its more potent derivative dihydrotestosterone (DHT) are responsible for increasing the size of hair follicles in areas such as the beard and underarm during puberty, but can also cause hair follicles in the scalp to decrease in size later in life. These contrasting responses to DHT might be explained by genetic differences in the individual hair follicles. Similarly, in men who are balding, genetically determined characteristics of hair follicles in the scalp may cause the follicles to be more likely to degrade in the presence of androgens. Hair follicles become miniaturized, and the hair consequently becomes thinner and shorter. The growing phase of the growth cycle becomes progressively shorter, which means more hairs are shed. Although the follicles still have an adequate blood supply, they continue to shrink, and some eventually die.
