The average football player would burn more in one quarter than a rod would going to his dealers 200 times :D

I accept your apology.

:p

For the record, Chris Fromme probably dopes when he's training, and times it so his system is clean when they get tested and when they compete.

For the record I think they all do that but that's another discussion altogether.
 
i still think it doesnt matter about the drugs.. the athlete still needs to do all the work, the drugs just let you recover from your workouts faster.

really, would steroids make you a better golfer ?
or race car driver ?

i could take every steroid there is , and still couldnt do what the worst athlete in their respective sport could do.
I just dont have the talent, and no drug i take could give me it.



except acid.. then i would THINK ik was good.

How would it be a different discussion? Fromme takes steriods, he just hasn't been caught... seems like the same debate to me :dontknow:

Yes; if an athlete could recover from his/her workouts faster than any other athlete they'd be competing against, then YES they WOULD be a better golfer/driver/rider/player... they would need less downtime for recovery, and thus spend more time practicing & training! This effect can be emphasized for extreme sports where injuries are even more prevalent... less down-time = more training = better athlete.
 
Still need a good base to start from.

Genetics, bone structure, etc.

We can't all just shoot up and BAM! 55" box jumps for everyone!

doesn't work like that.

i disagree with that ..

i could spend 24 hours a day training at ( name any sport ) and shoot up with roids and I still wouldnt be as good any professional athlete ( or retired athlete ) that was near the bottom of their respective talent pool.

take the worst NHL'er out there, and he's 20x better than I could ever be, and could skate circles around anyone i know.

the worst golfer on the PGA tour could destroy me , even if i practiced every day all day and took roids. you cant get talent from a needle.
 
they enhance your performance, they don't enhance your skill. that's why they are called performance enhancing drugs. brah

If you took Chris Froome and put him on a lesser bike yes he'd hand you, me or most people our *****. Drugs are bad when they're being used by few in a competition because they don't have what it takes to beat the best out there. I'd invite anyone to put years into a sport, training, diet etc and then get beat by someone who slacked through it and used steroids. I don't think anyone would be happy with outcome, do you?

Someone who slacks off and uses roids wont be beating Froome. Someone who puts in the same amount of effort into training, diet, etc AND uses roids would beat Froome.

Roids are not a shortcut. They can't make you as good as the pros with half the work. Only when you have topped out your natural physical ability should you even be considering roids.
 
In theory they could be slacking off as their recovery time would be less. It's not like these guys ride 24/7. While their training is intense they do have down time.

As for the complications.... really? There's a list a mile long. There's multiple negative effects it can have on your organs, immune system etc. Everyone has a genetic makeup and many people are fooled into thinking steroids can change this. Very not so. They can substantially mess with your joints, liver, kidneys, and even increase your risk of things such as heart disease. You could consult any doctor to find this out. It's not a guarantee but it's a definite risk that to most people isn't worth it.
 
You ask "should they allow steroids in sports"? That sounds like an ethical question. Here's your answer: NO!!

Most pharmacy's stock a buttload of them. All you need is a perscription.

hmm... what kind of reason can I give to the doctor for him to prescribe me steroids?

Also did anyone notice that the op typed steroids wrong on the topic???
