Steroids & Teens?

[Missfit4all]

did u all hear on the News how more & more teenagers R using Steroids these days? Apparently there is a Steroid Boom sweeping the Nation among teens? They even found a high percentage of 5th & 6th graders taking Steroids!

ya it's ridiculous. People need to show them side affects of using steroids like liver/kidney problems or blood clots that can lead to serious damage. One guy (a boxer) on the news had both of his legs amputated. He was only like 25 years old.

It's all major league baseball fault. Way to step up at the hearing mcguire, palmeiro, sosa, schilling..they were clueless and refused to talk about their past.

Have to give the guy credit for going to the hospital for getting his infection checked out before it turned to gangrene, oh wait, he didn't! Smart guy that one. So of course he keeps on injecting, into his other leg when he lost one already. Yes, smarty pants indeed. Just without the pants part. Maybe if he were cleaner he wouldn't have had that problem.

Yeah right, nobody in any other sport takes steroids. Blame it on Baseball because everyone else is doing it so it must be right.

I think it is YOU who is clueless.

I think it is congress' fault for bringing it up in the first place.

There was a show on tv last nite, one of the guests was there to discuss a book he recently published about steroids and "candy" (sudafed, ephedrine etc...) in professional hockey. What pissed me off, is that he talks of players having heart attacks, dying by 30 and so on, but never mentions ABUSE of those substances, steroid or not....Of COURSE he died on the ice, he had taken over 150 mg's of ephedrine between warm up and puck drop!!! DUH!!! There wasnt an ounce of seriousness or educational value in his comments...He talked about how gyno is INEVITABLE on gear etc... He was so clueless and stupid, when the host asked about testicular atrophy, he just replied" I dont worry about that, mine are huge anyways!"...Fucking tool!

 

[musclepump]

It's all steroids fault, don't you know? Doesn't matter how much, when you take it, how old you are. Noooo... nope nope nope. Just steroids. Steroids steroids steroids. One exogenous gram of Test and you, my friend, are fucked!

exacly what I thought!!!

 

[CowPimp]

I think this is a dissapointing statistic, as teenagers should not be using steroids at all in my opinion. Furthermore, people that young are probably less likely to take the time to research proper dosages, post cycle treatments, and whatever else is entailed in steroid usage to ensure their safety.

Don't jump on me, as I'm not trying to bastardize steroid usage. However, that is my opinion and I stand by it.

 

[Missfit4all]

Take Steroids and have a little of this ... that makes for a lot of this.... ....or perhaps one dead Monster?

That boxer brought that shit on himself, and You are an idiot.

ya, it's REALLY MLB's fault. Barry Bonds went to a dealer, bought steroids, and injected them into kids all over the nation. Get a fuckin' clue. You wanna know why those guys refused to talk about thier use? So they don't get castrated by assholes like you who think steroids made their careers and ruined the lives of kids.

That's REAL believable

 

[ihateschoolmt]

That's REAL believable

I didn't even know what a steriod was in 5th grade, we didn't even cuss yet!

 

[DOMS]

Take Steroids and have a little of this ... that makes for a lot of this.... ....or perhaps one dead Monster?

To be correct, you'd need to say this:

Take an excessive amount of Steroids with no cycling and no PCT and have a lot of this ... that makes for a lot of this.... ....or perhaps one dead idiot?

We now resume our usual uninformed post...

True that..I can't think of a single sport that hasn't been effected by performance enhancing drugs.

Yeah, bu they have Bobby Fisher. Thanks, but I'll take the steroids instead.

In the meantime, you can stroll down to almost any market on the corner and buy a pack of cigarettes and a bottle of whiskey. But congress is worried about steroids and they even banned PHs.

Then they wonder why fewer and fewer people seem to respect the law.

There are two reasons for that:

1. Steroid makers don't bribe politicians, a.k.a. contributing to their campaigns.
2. People that use alcohol and cigarettes don't make the skinny-ass lawmakers feel inadequate.

Correct, because then they're just like them.

I dont think this will help much. Kinda like all the anti smoking programmes, kids (and ppl with enough common sense) still do it. Not to say those programs are useless, but not extremly effective either.

Oh, wow.

You dont think Kasparov was using something? Hmmmmmm, he was pretty brutal!

I find it hard to believe 5th and 6th graders would be using "steroids," for them to even get their hands on 1-Test or something seems far fetched. I could picture perhaps a few with an older brother or something along those lines, but it just seems crazy.

I would say even 1% of high school users "using" is a high percentage and not all that likely at all. Of course if they pooled only several "bad" schools with those kinds of issues, then I'm sure they could skew statitistics enough to make it look like an epidemic as they so claim.

Ya, but even in the school I go to ,the worst drug school in the county, there is not many kids on steroids.

 

[Uzi9]

Oh, wow.

Are you still training HIT style duncan

 

[sgtneo]

i dont think teenagers shouold use steroids as they are still growing and their bodies adjusting, but through some basic research i have done steroids are not nearly as bad as what they say, its all through word of mouth thats has been passed around like chinese whispers, someone had gangreen because they didnt keep good hygene not because of the steroids but in order to make these performance enhancing drugs seem worse than they are, people adapt the stories and use them to their advantage, untill sociaty accepts that steroids are fine in carefully moderated and planned cycles, steroids will be frowned upon.

 

[Duncans Donuts]

No, actually, I'm using variations. Still low volume (roughly 8 total sets, depending on the day) but much more strict form and changing of exercises every 4-5 week including rest intervals between sets and performance.

The change has been phenomenal. Depending on the time in a 14 week cycle, I'll increase the volume up to 12-14 total sets and typically go back down to 8 for the remainder. Though variables will adjust when necessary.

I'am currently 17 and playing fairly serious baseball, I will have to admit using steroids had once been very intriguing, but I have never used them and instead have committed myelsf to improving my game the "natural" way. I can clearly see why many teenagers and kids have been using them, especially when playing amateur baseball, I personally know 2 guys on my team last year who admitted to using steroids and to my knowledge still use them. What I'd like to know is how they (kids) have access to steroids?

Because once you find a good source, they don't care how old you are. And finding a source is just about knowing people--it's how I got mine and how everyone I know got theirs. I don't know anyone who personally knows their source, but I do live in a small circle of gear users.

 

[Mudge]

I could have pointed to maybe 5 or 6 guys out of thousands.

WHOA Tough Guy! I obviously knew that the boxer brought that shit on himself. As for the rest of you, i was being sarcastic about the MLB hearing. Flex, maybe you're too stupid to understand the difference between a sarcastic comment and a serious comment. I just brought it up because they just had a hearing a few days ago. Also, MLB players may have made an impression on some younger kids like when Jose Canseco first brought it up and the ongoing nonsense from the media and players. Young kids can see how big and successful they are so they tend to use it. While you're at it, why don't you think about taking some anger management classes.
Chill out.
