Exclude'n all tha reasons like health,professional,personal goals, I just was wondering what are tha reasons that AAS is boom'n so hella right now. When I was a kid I heard about steroids and seen guys on tha island who did them, but no young person athlete or otherwise was even think'n bout fuck'n wit em. When I got here to tha States some of tha dudes that was set tripp'n would be swoll up on juice aside from them I only heard or seen tha guys that were bodybuilding.All tha OG's here know me so they can vouch that I don't hate on nobodies thang My question is this..........

would you say that perhaps there is a big sweep happen'n like Dank (weed) ( and I cleary am not compare'n Juice to trees before anybody jumps on that bandwagon to start preach'n ha ha) was in tha 70's, tha new thang for a generation to try.

Would you see it as a result of tha logical progression of technical advancement

Folks look'n for magic in a bottle

Other?
If you have any opinion ,I'd really be interested in hear'n. Just kick'n tha game Homey,ya dig!

Peace n Love

I agree with everything you said. It is out of control and I'm part of it. As for myself, I don't think I have much chance at my age to put on the size I want to attempt a contest at age 55. So I'm using gear to try and see if I can get the size that I think would be needed to even place. I do know that at my age that the type of training and diet is going to factor in at about 75% of it or even more. I'm just hoping for the best and I see what happens. Just my honest feelings


Tough

The magic in a bottle thing is dead on.

I think it's TV and media stoking the fire. Every time you turn on Sports Center, you hear about another benign athelete accused of juicing. And hell every time you see a movie you start to see more and more guys that you KNOW are on something. I also think accessability is easier now. With the age of the internet and there have already been people nabbed selling coke on line for crying out loud, not to mention all kinds of shady ammunitions online, there isn't much you can't find online. I think the internet is a big part of it. Hell, you can buy incidery ammo online. That's ammo that you can shoot out of a 9mm or .45 auto that when it strikes its target burst into a 5000degree ball of fire. Pretty sick shit, but it can be bought for the right price of about 2 bucks a shell. Every drug imaginable can be purchased online, just about. Plus I think because it's slowly popped out that a lot of pro's are on it that it's become a little more mainstream. I can remember when I was younger, in my late teens and early twenties hearing rumors of buddies being on gear and it was big time hush hush, even amongst friends. Now I know guys that when I see them packin 20lbs on since I saw them last month and they've got a little pudge in their face from water retention, they'll tell me, "Yeah, been running 20mg dbol with some test..." before I would have gotten" creatine, man, and some of that NO2" I knew guys that wouldn't even admit to andro use a few years ago. I still don't tell anyone that I do except a few close friends.

So my reason is I think accessability is easier and acceptance as more mainstream.

Sorry, this is gonna be a long post...| think the acceptance of plastic surgery increasing makes using steroids to the general public fall in that area. I know it's not the same thing but in a way it is. I mean the reason someone gets plastic surgery is one of two reasons: they can't seem to change themselves naturally with diet or excercise alone, Or they don't think they could ever attain a certain physique naturally. And quite frankly most body building physiques now these days are unnatainable without drugs.

Juice is the Magic Bullet. The more people get online and talk about how quickly they put on 20 lbs of muscle, the more people want to try it. It is nothing new. People have been searching for the magic fat burning supplement for a century.

They found it too. It's called Meth. You'll have no appetite for days, see demons when you close your eyes, clean your bathroom with a toothbrush for eleve straight hours, but have a 4%bodyfat level. Oh yeah and over time, you're teeth rot too.

the media is for sure playing a huge roll in planting the seed for kids to juice....until now its one of those things people didn't talk about unless there were in the circle of people that do it....now everyone talks about it because its all over TV.....and that if anything gives kids a reason to try it.....I probably wouldn't have done any drugs in my life if authority didn't say don't do it....when I say drugs I mean rec drugs like pot and caine....X....shit like that. I have since tried those things when I was younger and realize its not for me....I blame the D.A.R.E cop that came to my elementary school and passed around the drugs and told all the kids how it makes you feel...and that is appealing for kids to try...now its roids.

I love the "You drink, You drive, You Die" scare tactic they're using for steroids with the one commercial where it keeps showing kids dissapear in the hallway because they died from doing gear. I don't condone it but it's the same tactic. The fact is more than likely as a teenager, they're not gonna die, just f**K up their hormones among other things.

This is so true, and people always thought I was messed up for making that attribution.

I agree with the comments on the media blowing things out of proportion. I don't think AAS usage is way up, but due to the internet and the OTC drug boom there is no doubt that more people are experimenting. When "diet in a bottle" supps started coming out, every other fat ass was rushing to the stores to buy them up. American culture moves quickly, and people want things as fast as possible and are willing to take risks to get there.

its for sure a media hype authority that is greatly adding to this drug issue and kids....as SubliminalX said most americans are fat and we want things now and not later.... i.e. plastic surgery.....people that don't workout and are fat as hell look at steroids as their ticket to being a hottie that all the ladies are going to want to get with....Instead of the media hyping up steroid use in teens they should have how FAT this country is on every night and how its going to kill our kids young etc... They should talk about how being a fatass is going to cause everyone long term health issues. IMO being super fat is worse for you then an in shape person on moderate amounts of gear.

It's not even really an opinion, there is a way higher chance of dieing from heart disease (from being fat) than from dieing on a correct cycle. I think someone that drinks and smokes pot is healthier than a really fat person.

I think gear got a bad rap from idiots who use/abuse the juice AND stimulants and depressants and alcohol....and get hurt...not a whole lot of bodybuilders keeling over on a daily basis...because their diet is clean and other than gear they lead a healthy lifestyle...my sis told me a friend of a friend just had a heart attack and died because of steroids, then later found out he was on coke and some whole 'nother other shit at the same time...wonder what really killed him
