Hey fellas...just curious to what everybody thinks about steriod use...some call it cheating....some think its awesome...so whaddya think guys...whats your opinion of steroid use in bodybuilding?

[MadeOfScars]

I guess if u r willing to take the risks involved in steriod use than thats ur choice. I have mixed feelings. I sort of think that using steroids is a form of cheating and that they r just taking the easy way out. but then it is a neccesary tool used in those who have dedicated their lives to being the best and with roids u can take it to the next level to compete. so all in all its ur choice. i dont think ill ever take the risks. i value my health too much.

If you compete in the WSNO events I think it's wrong. Everyone comes to a point in the road and has to make a decision. Everyones body is different and grows at a different rate and more importantly reacts to the sauce at a different rate.

I remember when I first started lifting weights. I would read magazines like FLEX and see all the pros. I was like "damn I'm gonna be like that some day". Then I joined internet forums and people were like "you can't get that big without steroids" and I was like "shit".

I think the only reason someone should use steroids is if they compete. But other then that i dont think its worth the health risks. All the pros in the ifbb look great in the outside, but think about whats happening to their bodies in the inside. Ya iam a fan cause they train hard and live the way we do because this is a brotherhood, but unless your competing it just doesnt make sence to use steroids.

I am not an advocate of or against, but i will say this. do we consider the high tech swim suit used by SOME athletes as cheating? Is that not an enhancement?
As far as the damage it causes, I will only say this RESEARCH IN THE PROPER PLACES< LIKE AUTHENTIC MEDICAL STUDIES!!!! Not the fucking media, I get so pissed at stupidity and blind faith.
Sorry flew off there for a second. Have you ever looked into whty steroids were originally created?
Do you know why they became illegal?
I am not talking about all the black market shit and people using horse crap.

Look into it. make sur the source you are reading is legit.

I dont think theres anything wrong with steroids, but if youre gonna take em you have to bring your game to a whole new level. You gotta give 110% in this game. If you're just lookin to gain an inch on your arms and maybe get some abs, bust your ass naturally. If you're lookin to compete in high-level, non-tested competitions, then you'll probably wanna look into it. I saw that MTV True Life thing about the guys who took steroids. One dude took them so he could look better in a strip contest, get the fuck out of here. The only lifter that took them wasn't even all that big. You gotta be dedicated.
