Steriods

[LeftForDead]

Im really into bmxing and watersports and last winter i went propper unfit and didnt do as much as before so i became less fit and i was wondering what exactly steriods do, if there legal id be able to take them because im not into comps so they dont do drug tests.

[stratosphere]

www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steroids should tell you what they do.

[luke-p]

Na-ah... Try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anabolic_steroid

There for performance etc...

[Concentric2]

As far as i know they're similar to hormones, so they'll be a certain kind that triggers muscle growth etc.

Personally i wouldn't take any. Just work at getting fit again.

If anything you'll get more satisfaction from having acheived it naturally.

Annd you become impotent. Only take steroids if the doctor tells you to :) *waits for Ostinatos advice)

Steroids are notorios for giving you violent mood swings and they often cause genital shrinking, not worth it.

u saying im small?:P
But nah looking at the facts i wont bother, just have to keep on working at it:P

Steroids make your muscles bigger and everything like that. But they make your penis smaller, your head bigger, acne on your back, and you get bigger feet. :) That's what they do.

lol you dont have to take steroids too get more fit. As i recall my PSE teacher telling me it can lower your life span by 25% [around that] and you have increased risks of getting cancer. I suggest you get to the gym. Usualy leasure centers have these or gym chains. Anyways i wouldn't think of taking steroids. I have been going to the gym now for 6 months and compared to what i used to be im alot healthier and stronger.

My cousin buys this stuff called Pro-Whey its like Protein shakes their pretty nice and they dont have side effects and arnt ilegal try that?

[lAdmire]

there are many more options then steiroids.
the gym, eating right, etc.

Im already working out at home, going for runs and things like that.
I think its pointless paying for the gym when you can do it all at home.
Only problem is that ive hurt my arm i think when i got a bike down from the top shelf the other day at work. So ive gotta rest it:\
I really need to work out though ready for next year:\

This ****** me off. Just train harder. You wanna get fit? Do more running/exercise. As a footballer I have never considered steroids - because you can get fit by doing it the right way. During pre-season we've done 7 & 8 mile runs and now we're all extremely fit because of it. Work harder.

Yes, work harder! Well you can't be doing that much training if you claimed to be so unfit. Just train harder. Yes, I said train harder. You obviously can't be "working hard" at the moment if you are contemplating steroids. But do try & say you are with another lie...

Risks? From exercise? Don't make me laugh!

of steriods!

of steriods!
Well why did you make a thread if you're so worried about the risks. It doesn't take a genius to know that steroids are actually bad for you & just training harder is so much more worth it.

[velocity]

steriods wont make you fit.

[beau03]

their useless

[RedStratocas]

their useless

actually steroids are very useful. they help heal arthritis pains and are used in many cures. i wouldn't say stuff like that unless you know what you're talking about [and know the difference between they're there and their]

[Virgin Mary]

In small doses they're a good catalyst for building up muscles, as long as you don't get dependent on them.

[Robzor]

never take drugs , they lead you down the wrong path.

[RedStratocas]

steroids dont really grow muscles, they just help them heal faster. its not like you can take steroids and sit around and you'll get strong

[Wig44.]

If I'm right steroids trigger huge amounts of testosterone and they don't shrink your penis...

They shrink your balls.
