Just the colors alone are so pretty you want to take them, and if they make you lean and mean, all the better. What am I talking about? Anabolic drugs.
So what is this big word all about that seems to be floating around the gyms and fitness centers? Read here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anabolic_steroid for the smarty pants version, but for us mere mortals it is essentially a man-made variation of the male hormone, testosterone.
Athletes tend to use these for improved physical ability, some doctors prescribe them for teenagers who have delayed in puberty while others have been known to use it to help slow down the cancer process. Whichever category you fall in we will discuss them further in this article.
Why take anabolic drugs?
As a sportswoman myself and fiercely competitive back in my day, we’ve slept since then, I can fully understand the fact that athletes who are at the top of their game and want to gain that little bit extra would resort to taking an enhancement pill of sorts.
Being an athlete is tough, mentally and physically, especially so if your sport is weightlifting or bodybuilding were the use of steroids and anabolics are free and flowing. The main objective is to be the leanest, and in my opinion, the most sinewy, contender on stage and finished off with a 75% cocoa spray tan to bring out definition.
It’s interesting to hear the different situations people find themselves in that leads to them using the steroids, check out this blog article and get a behind the scenes insight into the how and why people lean towards anabolic drug use.
Going to the gym and eating a balanced diet can only seem to get you so far, and for some men, this is the ultimate physic, but if you’re in the competitive world of weight-lifting there is always room for improvement. Those extra reps or adding 15 minutes more to your routine do help, but to get them to reach the peak of their abilities, this is where steroids start to play their role.
Some athletes also tend to take a growth hormone supplement, this allows them to bulk up even more, increase performance and grow their overall muscle mass. This doesn’t, however, give you any talent, that part you need to have on your own. If only they could make little jars filled with talent pills we could take, I know a few people who would benefit from a jar or 2.

- Muscle recovery. When athletes train as hard as they do they are constantly damaging and stressing the muscles, anabolic speeds up the recovery process and time and this enables you to get back into the gym quicker.
