| Every athletes who has
to be in shape, train daily, get strength and size, and recover over night feels that they
have the right to use these drugs if they choose. If you think about it, we have the
right to smoke, we have the right to alter our looks with cosmetic surgery, we have the
right to take testosterone in enhance our sexually desires, we have the right to take
growth hormones to fight aging, but we don't have the right to use anabolic steroid to
enhance our performance or to advance in our careers. Since they have make anabolic
steroid illegal, I have seen more dangerous side effects, higher health problems, and more
anabolic steroid use then when steroids were legal under medically care. The only thing
that making this drug illegal did was make more money for drug pusher and increase the
death rate. It is not the used of anabolic that are killing athletes, it is the lack of
information, doctor supervision, and FDA approve anabolic steroids. This Chapter in
my web site is information on steroids obtained by athletes themselves who have used
steroids successfully to obtain their goals and on Nutrition and keeping the body healthy.
Most of the information in this chapter attain from a book I wrote back in 1990
call "Anabolic, Training, and Nutrition Handguild".
- Anabolic steroids
have been used as far back as World War II. Steroids were developed to
assist malnutrition in P.O.W's to regain lost strength and body weight. It wasn't
until the 1950s that athletes started using steroids for muscle and strength building. The
first athletes to use steroids were European and Russian athletes. During the 60s and 70s
steroids became well known in the world of sports. In 1978 steroids testing had been a big
topic in the eyes of sports. The first to be criticized and crucified were five European
athletes, the results were the loss of their titles in a major competition that they
probably trained all their lives for. That same year, four Russian and one Bulgarian
track and field athletes tested positive in urine samples for anabolic steroids. By the
80s steroids were commonly used by almost every top name athlete in the world of sports.
Even women athletes at this point started to experiment with steroids. One by one,
athletes become exposed by drug testing. One of the biggest scandals in sports history was
in the 80s with field and track superstar Ben Johnson. Johnson was caught using anabolic
steroids during the 1988 Olympic Games. When first approached, he had denied the used of
drugs, but later tested positive for a steroid called Stanozolol (winstrol) and
testosterone Cypionate (depo), which is used by athletes for cutting. When these two are
stacked together, they are very effective for size, speed, and strength. It is widely used
by veterinarians for race dogs and horses. Before he was caught he was idolized for being
the fastest man on earth. Now he is known as the first Olympia athlete to use steroids to
gain a title. Another superstar who was caught in the political war of drug testing was
Tonya Knight of the IFBB (Women's professional bodybuilding) also fail a drug test during
the 1989 Ms. International Bodybuilding Championships. Tonya had another competitor take a
her urine sample in fear of being caught. But I think the biggest surprise of them all,
was Mark McGwire. Mark McGwire using natural "Performance Enhancer" such
as Androstenedione
and Creatine
hit the headlines in every sport newspaper. He was crucify for using natural
over-the-counter supplements to enhance his performance. This bad publicity was the talk
in all sports competition. Soon these natural over-the-counter supplements were ban from
most sports. Where is all this going to end? I personally don't think professionals should
be tested, crucify, and their career destroy by the used of "Performance
Enhancer" natural supplements or otherwise. More professional business people are
dying from stress, smoking, alcohol, than professional athletes on steroids or using
over-the-counter supplements. And where are the advantages that a user will have
over a non-user, when they are all using? To me this is just another copout. More infor on

- Most of us think of anabolic steroids
as a bodybuilding thing. Not so! Steroids are being use in every sports; from high
school swim team all the way up to well known basketball players. I spend over ten years
working with trainers, coaches, and even parents on diets and cleaning programs that aid
effects of steroids and counteract the side effects. During this time I have seen it
all. I have seen people turn and look the other way to steroid use. I have seen
athletes paid good money for vitals of unmark liquid and injecting it in their body. I
have known of drug dealers making lots of money selling sugar water and even urine in home
made vitals so uneducated athletes can inject it. To me this is the biggest
crime.
