why do people use steroids

hey guys I am new to this website and I am doing a research paper on steroid use and I just wanted to see if I could get some feedback on why people decide to take steroids and if they even know the dangers to it and what it can do to your body?

The question is do YOU know what the dangers are and what they can do to your body....

or do you just think you know because of everything you have heard?


Trust me, just as most things... if used properly, the side effects of using steroids are not NEARLY as negative as pushed by the media and society today.

The people here on this board that do use, know exactly what the pro's and con's are associated with steroid use. The only times that you really hear about people suffering from extreme side effects is when they are uneducated in how to properly cycle, and they abuse them. Its that simple.

Goodluck on your paper.

Through education the people here have learned something you haven't. Not to buy into hysteria put forth by media and government about steroids and the supposed dangers. You're out of touch. You need to start over and spend a couple months reading here. Then try your quesion again when you know what you're talking about.
 
if you ask me the people (males) who are in danger are the ones that don't use it.. especially when you reach your 40s and 50s when your body stops making test.. thats like nature's way of sayin "ok you did your time here.. go die!".. im not saying it prolongs your life but it will defenetly give you a better one for those years after the age of 50
 
but im 22 so my reason for using it is cause i wanna get bigger.. simple as that.. :Chef:

These posts are always interesting. There are quite a few different reasons why people take them. Ultimately its to look better. For me personally it started for all the wrong reasons, ex: insecurity.

To answer your second question unless your really ignorant you should always know or research what side effects or dangers are involved with putting a drug into your body. I like to think people that deciede to take steriods are alittle smarter then your average recreational drug user and do alittle homework before starting, changing, any type of anabolic they use. Just keep in mind everyone is different, side effects experienced by user A might be alittle different if not completely different then user b. Hope that helps. Good Luck.
 
hahaha.. I love this thread too! This is an awesome day for threads.. It is like this everyday, seriously?? :lmao:

Again, go ahead and write your paper on steroids about how it shrinks a man's penis, makes him beat up his significant other, destroys his liver, and makes him commit suicide if he ever decides to come off. Go ahead and get your B minus on it because you confused the terms 'effects' and 'affects' and wrongfully interchanged 'your' and 'you're' and 'there' and 'their.' Then go home today and drink your Cell Tech Osmotic Dispensing sugary concoction before you drive 30 minutes to the gym to walk on the treadmill for 15 minutes and then do a 'core workout' on a swiss ball. After that, I then bid you a lifelong struggle to go to college, get a degree that you'll never use, find a girl who never stops bitching about always being so damn broke, and work until you die.

or..

you can change your entire life right here.. You can stand erect like a man, open your mind up to new possibilities.. You can read through a bunch of these threads and learn what steroids really can do for the human body. AFter learning about all the great things steroids can do, you can then proceed to write the most controversial paper ever. Instead of 'Why do people use steroids?" you title your paper "Why people SHOULD use steroids for greater health"

But yeah, it would be a lot easier to just sit on the couch and stare at the tv box and listen to what Fox News and MTV has to say about steroids. Because, after all, it is Fox News and MTV right? I mean, they can't be wrong if millions of braindead teenagers watch it everyday right?

Hey buddy, but don't you worry, prime rate is coming down soon so paying off that 30 year loan will get a bit easier. I just sincerely hope that you don't outlive that 30 year term policy life insurance you just bought from a tear off of your Bank Statement 5 months ago..

Well, i'm not gonna go into a lot of detail work here, but I posted the follwoing poem here a few days ago by my friend Ranger. Basically, it just discusses the topic of why we like to work out and eat the way we do....a bodybuilder's lifestyle basically. A bodybuilder doesn't have to be the guy pumped up on tons of AAS weighing 250-300-lbs, but it can also be a guy like Brad Pitt (careers), Barry Bonds (sports careers), Ulter (health and well being), AIDS patients (health and staying alive), and so on.

Basically you take the poem below, and add in AAS and it is magnified to optimal levels. This can make it Healthier, funner, $$$$ enhancing, and life supporting.

Media is nothing but that....a bunch of hype going on heresy and false accusations. There are just as many Pro-medical professionals that are in favor of using AAS than there are those who are preaching against it through ignorancy. The fact is, yes there are some sides to AAS use, but a responsible user knows how to use them correctly to benefit themselves and prevent sides from occuring. In fact, you have to do something pretty damn stupid to hurt yourself on AAS, and usually, it is from another variable that ends up causing the problem and not the AAS themselves.

SO you ask, "Why do [people] use AAS".......Well, aside from the above, they ARE fun to use for most of us. They can be used for health purposes. And yes, I do like it when a female gives that double look at my fine, sexy body after training my ass off for 'myself.'

RANGER:

"WHY I DO IT"

I said it once, I'll say it again,
anything less, would be a sin!

I do it for the stares, when they look at me,
I do it for the mirror, and what I hope to see !

I do it for children, who giggle when I flex my chest,
I do it for my family, who knows I look my best !

I do it for blood....Coarsing through Viking veins,
I do it for the pump....and that feeling of Insane !

I do it for the women, but those days are now past,
I do it from the heart...Forever may it last !

I do it in the gym, where I'll always feel so free,
I do it for the love of the sport, and what it's done for me !

I do it when I'm feeling down, it always makes me soar,
I do it when I feel the pain....and when I beg for more !

I do it because others can't, for they cannot feel the desire,
I do it for my restless soul, to one day quench the fire !

I do it with determination, for that driving need,
I do it for the fear, that I may not ever succeed !

I do it for that special someone, who knows I love her,
Most of all I do it for me !........CAUSE I WANNA BE A BIG MUTHERFUC-KER !!!

I guess that about sums it up......!!
Jeez.....I crack myself up.............!!

Some day I hope you get to meet Ranger. What a character. He'll entertain for hours.

Yeah, he is at the top of my list for friends to meet in person. When FC competed over in Vegas a few years ago, I was supposed to meet up with them, as a bunch of people were traveling with them (as you know), and I couldn't make it because of my job at the time and my Ex girlfriend's daughter's B-day I think....:(

I need to make a big east coast trip and hit everybody up....sort of like "BMJ's National Lampoon's East Coast Trip" and hit up everybody along that side of the country.

Maybe once again, i'll try to make plans for the Arnold.... :rolleyes:

Sport reason, anti aging effect, and sick of being stuck at lifting plateus.

Besides, if you eat any meat or dairy products, you are inadvertently taking growth hormones as well.
 
I was wondering this same thing only about alcohol. I wonder why people still drink even knowing all the dangers associated with alcohol use

Smoking cigs too. Both habits often go hand in hand and are accompanied by sedentary lifestyles and artery clogging, sugary, diets. Who's gonna croak 1st? A juicer of 15 yrs??? or a 15 yr chain smoking alcoholic that never exercises, rarely sleeps and eats Pepsi and BBQ Ruffles as a dietary staple?

i can hear everything you are saying
and its coke and doritos dammit
 
People take it to gain that edge, or push themselves/ further the barrier. Athletes are always looking for that edge and steroids can give people that edge which is needed to win. Also, I think you will gain a lot of information in looking at the psyche and drive of the typical athlete.

I think the way you are phrasing the question implicitly implies that people shouldn’t take steroids and that is a misleading statement. Try and be a little more open minded giving the pro’s and con’s.
 
k to all the bros that have put in helpful posts. If this kid is somewhat intelligent and willing to take in new ideas that aren't necessarily socially acceptable, he might have a chance at actually writing a paper on AAS that is true and not know to the general media and public.
 
have you seen the hbo real sports steroid video w/ bryan gumble? It talks about the side of steroid use nobody ever hears. There's one guy on there that's a local high school f-ball coach thats been juicing like 40 yrs. He's 70 some yrs old and in great health. He even has hair!
 
no way Big C. If he juices he is a very very bad drug addict that needs help. probably looks 70ish but really is 40ish and only does d-bol only cycles. No way can you tell me it is safe to through a heroine type substance in your vein. You do shove juice in your veins right? even just winny?


lol

please tell me the dangers you know about, from the commercials you see on ESPN or during other sporting events with our limbs crackin and joints falling apart so we can't throw the discus.
 
Cuz I'm insane in the membrane...
But actaully, at 43 years old, I don't touch alchohol or drugs, I eat extremely healthy, and I am in the best shape of my life. My life has consistently gotten better since I started AAS at the tender young age of 38. My son is my pride and joy, and he is an a student in honors classes and an extraordinary athlete. Cuz I am his dad and I raise him with values, discipline and love. I am well respected in my community, I volunteer for several worthy causes, and I even consult with law enforcement. I do small, safe cycles that improve my health, my looks, and my opportunites in life. But I guess I'm just a "juice head" and will try to inject in my forhead any minute now (cuz I want a bigger brain), once the roid rage kicks in of course, after my liver falls out, and my heart explodes. But before I become a girl...

He's like Maui, Mt Rushmore, the Grand Canyon, Niagra Falls. Something you want to see before you die.

Why doesn't he post here anymore? I think the last time I saw him post was sometime in 2000 when he got jumped and stabbed leaving a movie. Nothing ever got the guy down - he was on here within days loaded on GHB and telling stories :D
 
its simple if your 6'4 250#s of pure mucsle then you need steriods. if your a stick figure and have a testosterone level of a school girl then you need to work out harder until you reach your full potential.

And so I don't seem completely useless around here, these are the links to that HBO Special talking about how steroids are not as dangerous as the media /congress reports them to be.

Could you be a little more specific?

Also, I can assure you, you've taken steroids probably every day of your life.
