steriods, roid, juice-one exception

I agree. It is cheating. It takes away from the sport of bodybuiding. The big health risk isn't worth it. The users should regroup and read up on some of the long term effects of steriods. You did the right things by bringing it to their attention. No matter who the rules are for professional or non-professional, it is still not the right thing to do.

I once saw an interview with former wrestler Terry funk and they asked him his thoughts about stereoid use in professional wrestling. The thing he said that made sense was that wreslting isn't considered a sport, it's intertainment. guys aren't really competing with one another, they're putting on a show for an audience. My thoughts on bodybuilding competition is that, yes it is a competition, but it's really any event where people are onstage showing off their muscles. They aren't physically competing with one another the same way a football or basketball player is. It's to my knowledge that these bodybuilders are using steroids to get better muscle tone an become more ripped. Everyone knows the conciquences of using these substances in the long run so it's their choice to do so. At the same time it is still a competition, and guys are giving themselves a more better edge to have a better muscle tones deffinitioned body by using steroids over the guy who's been busting his butt and working out for years to develop his body naturaly. My opinion on steroids has always been " you still have to excersise and workout with or without any kind of substance you take". It's not like guys are taking roids and just sitting around on their a$$ for six weeks an put on muscle.

you hear about people using it all the time, it can cause so many more serouis problmes with people. its sad, when i used to work out i never used it at all, i wanted to work harder for where i wanted to be at. some used to asked if i used to use it because my built was like big arms. but now i do get steriod shots for my neck and back, i hate it because it cause me to break out.

They have to use it at their own risk. And let them suffer the consequences. I think those guys are matured enough and are not clueless of the negative effects of steroids on the body. Cheers!

I completely agree with you! I believe that it IS cheating, but he does have a point... but if you do it yourself you will feel much more accomplished. Also, if you use steroids you may feel proud at first, but you will always know that you used a substance to help you achieve something you could have done naturally if you put your mind to it. Steroids are completely idiotic.
