We take roids because they give us more than what we can give ourselves naturally. They are drugs, and all drugs work to some degree without having to eat a certain way or act a certain way. Ive never had a doctor prescribe me a drug then say "Ok now you have to eat at least 4000 calories a day, 400 grams protein, workout 3 hours every day otherwise this drug is useless". Lets just be honest here.
When AIDS patients and burn patients get steroids they just take them and sit on their ass literally and shit still works.
