Anyone knows that anabolic steroids are frequently demonized. If a sportsperson or a bodybuilder uses steroids and/or other doping products, he/she is claimed to be a cheater. Journalists report about such individuals as about those who have destroyed their reputation. Anti-doping officials put incredible efforts and spend money in other to catch athletes that dope. Even the government spends taxpayers’ funds and time in order to prove that some athletes have taken steroids and/or doping products. It is affirmed that those who dope take unfair advantages during competitions.
Numerous articles describe the war on steroids. But let see whether arguments against application of steroids are strong enough to prove that it is disgraceful to administer them.
It is stated that steroid-using athletes serve as a bad example for children and young persons. It is known that youth sees a lot of sports stars that take steroids and other related drugs. As a result, young individuals want to look and be as strong, as these celebrated sports figures. Furthermore, it is widely discussed about health risks connected with steroids. But if you are attentive, you can comprehend that these arguments are weak because hypocrisy reigns here.
Let examine the most spread arguments against intake of anabolic steroids and/or other related medications.
According to the first argument, intake of steroids is closely associated with several potential health risks. Many articles warn about shrunken testicles and enlargement of heart that may occur on account of steroid use. However it may be true, let analyze our life. We consume unhealthy food, however we know that it destroys our health. Some persons use antidepressants which are also quite dangerous. We do also other unhealthy things.
According to another argument against steroids, steroid-using sportspersons have unfair advantages in competitions. They win because they improve performance with these preparations. Let pay attention what happens in other fields, for example, in the world of entertainment. Numerous actors and actresses improve their appearances and performances in order to play several roles in movies. They also have unfair advantages over others with the help of some surgeries and other things. But they are not sentenced to suspensions.
While it is stated that steroid-using athletes send bad messages to young persons that want to look like them and follow their examples, no one notes about the bad example of actors and actresses. Young girls also want to look like those they see in magazines.
While feds pursue sportspersons that apply steroids, they have nothing to do with actors and actresses that act like steroid-using athletes.
It is clear that arguments against intake of steroids are quite weak. They display hypocrisy which reigns in our counterfeit world.
