of course it is,but if you dont realise that most TOP athletes,bbrs,rugby players,cyclist,strongmen,etc are on performance enhancing drugs then you are very nieve

I am not saying that a certain percentage of athletes don't use drugs.

I am saying that, having been around high level athletes in many different sports, the ability to do high amounts of work is TRAINED, not chemically induced. Many times the best guy is not on drugs.

There are more guys on drugs who are out of shape and nobody's because they do not realize the effort and training that goes into being great.

Drugs do not make a better athlete, they do not increase skill, they do not increase mental toughness, they do not increase work ethic. These are all things that have to be trained. And to get to the top a LOT of training has to happen.

I think people do not give great athletes the credit that they deserve. People do not understand how much work is being done. It is not just "take some drugs, then be great"

Performance enhancing drugs are not "miracle substances" and the effect in many sports is just not what everyone thinks it is.

Amount of drug use differs from sport to sport. We cannot say that most athletes, regardless of sport, are on some type of performance enhancing drug.
 
+rep for that goergen, the idea that someone can stick a needle in their ass and make themselves fantastic athletes is crazy.
The more I've learnt about the Endocrine system from my new text books the more I realise how steroids could be used to give an edge but nothing more than that. A top strongman on steroids would still be a top strongman without them, the steroids give a little bit extra that's all
 
i never said they will make you a top athlete,what i said and is fact is they help top athletes get that bit more out of training and recovery,thats why MOST are on it.
 
Sh1t i was just looking back at my threads. And where the f**k does time go. Cant believe i made this thread over a year ago, doesn't seem 2 minutes!
