Mark McGwire overcomes his doping past

Mark McGwire, an American professional baseball player and coach, escapes from his past associated with intake of steroids successfully. He gets his celebrity again. This person is actively involved in professional baseball again.
However Mark McGwire realizes that he doesn’t have any chance to enter into the Hall of Fame, he doesn’t become disappointed. He continues to like baseball.
St. Louis Cardinals were coached by this person two seasons. Then this coach decided to discontinue coaching this team because he wants to spend more time with his family. Fortunately, Mark McGwire will not leave professional baseball in order to have more time for his family. The Los Angeles Dodgers asked him to coach them. Mark McGwire agreed. Coaching this team will not disturb this person to spend sufficient time with his wife and children because he it takes for him only an hour in order to drive from his home to the Dodgers Stadium.

The American baseball player and coach realized that he didn’t act correctly. Mark McGwire apologized for violation of anti-doping rules. Then the American athlete and coach was allowed to come back to professional baseball. Thus, he began to restore his reputation which was destroyed on account of the mistake linked with intake of prohibited preparations.

How can you recognize undercover police officer that pretends to be steroid user?

Sports nutrition stores sell not only real nutrition supplements. They market steroidal substances as nutrition supplements and offer them for sale. But authorities put efforts to control and avoid sale of steroids as if they were true supplements. That’s why clerks of sports nutrition stores sell steroids illegally. Those who come to such shops are frequently informed that they may buy steroids too.
 But these conditions are known not only by consumers of steroids but also by law enforcements. So, law enforcements conduct undercover investigations in order to bust sports nutrition shops that offer steroids for sale. Clerks should know that if a client wants to obtain steroids, arranging a deal outside the store, he must be an undercover officer. That’s why those that are implicated in illicit actions related to sale of steroids should be very careful to prevent legal problems. Although they know about these aspects, they make common mistakes which result in arrests, charges and imprisonment.
Let present a story about a clerk of the General Nutrition Centers (GNC) store located in East Walpole (Massachusetts). George Touma sold anabolic steroids along with nutrition supplements. When police officers were informed about illicit operations of this man, they started an investigation. The investigation lasted circa a month and was conducted by The Walpole Police Department.
An undercover police officer came to the shop often and bought dietary supplements. He was talking to the clerk very frequently. So, a friendly relation was formed. Finally they discussed about steroids. The undercover agent said that he would like to obtain anabolic steroids. So, he agreed to obtain 2 vials of steroids from George Touma. The police officer had to give $300 for the medicines. The deal was arranged outside the shop. After the purchase had taken place police officers arrested the clerk.
As a result, George Touma was accused of illegal possession and sale of anabolic steroids.

Attitudes of top tennis players to anti-doping policies

Great changes occurred in certain types of sports after the USADA released its report on the prominent cyclist Lance Armstrong. The legendary American cyclist was taking steroids and other related medications throughout the entire athletic career but he never tested positive for any forbidden preparation. He utilized certain effective ways to remain undetectable. Nevertheless, finally he was found guilty of doping.
Lance Armstrong’s doping case has manifested that anti-doping policies failed. Thus, they should be changed. Otherwise, competitions will be unfair. We’ll never see real sports heroes.
These factors influenced not only on cycling but also on other sports. Certain sports organizations stated that anti-doping programs should be altered in order to catch those that apply steroids and/or other related substances.
Not only anti-doping officers but also sportspersons claim that anti-doping programs should be changed. Several sportspeople desire to be sure that their sport is clean. For example, certain tennis players confirm that more drug testing should take place in tennis. It is necessary to notice that such tennis stars, as Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Andy Murray, believe that anti-doping policy is not quite proper in tennis. They affirm that more drug testing is required in order to assure that tennis is free of doping.
Novak Djokovic, a Serbian tennis player, stated that he would submit to more drug testing in order to induce cleaning tennis of dopers.
Roger Federer also affirmed that more tests for forbidden products should take place in tennis. He noticed that earlier he was subjected to more tests. Then the number of tests became lower in tennis.
As for the Scottish tennis player Andy Muray, he affirmed that more out-of-competition testing should be conducted. While tennis players are always subjected to drug testing during competitions, they are not tested often while being not in competitions.

Patrick Jonker and Julian Dean never saw Lance Armstrong doping

The USADA has published a report on the American cyclist Lance Armstrong.
Which impression do readers get, when they study this report? It is confirmed that numerous persons believe that every teammate of this prominent cyclist has administered steroids and/or other related medicines. But is it true point of view? Has each Lance Armstrong’s teammate doped?
According to the dossier on this sportsman, 11 teammates testified against him, confirming that he took doping products. Furthermore, it was confirmed that Lance Armstrong and the most mates of his team used sophisticated methods in order to be able to dope and avoid detection.
Although certain Lance Armstrong’s teammates admitted to using steroids and/or other related medicines, certain teammates denied doping. For example, Julian Dean and Patrick Jonker were two teammates of the famous cyclist that denied administering performance-enhancing drugs.
Julian Dean confirmed that he neither doped, nor saw Lance Armstrong applying steroids and/or other related preparations.
As for Patrick Jonker, his statements were like those of Julian Dean. He affirmed that he had never applied any forbidden medicines. He confirmed that he competed cleanly and didn’t take any unfair advantage.
According to Patrick Jonker, application of steroids and other related medicines is a serious problem in cycling. He thinks that many cyclists dope. He thinks that it is necessary to fight against application of performance-enhancing drugs in cycling. But he claims that suitable methods should be used by anti-doping agencies. This athlete is full of indignation, talking about prosecution against Lance Armstrong.  Patrick Jonker affirms that killers are less pursued than the American cyclist.

Steroid use in tennis

The Scottish professional tennis player Andy Murray claims that tennis is not tainted by application of anabolic steroids and other doping products. He believes that usage of doping products doesn’t represent any problem in this sport. He confirms that tennis is relatively clean. If you compare this sport to others, you may be convinced that it is free from doping, according to Andy Murray. But the tennis player realizes that this sport is not completely clean. He acknowledges that several tennis players take banned remedies too.
If you take cycling as an example, you may notice that it is linked to allegations regarding doping by the prominent cyclist Lance Armstrong. Cycling commentators and reporters put efforts to show that doping reigns in other sports too. So, they put efforts to direct attentions of people from cycling to others sports. They claim that intake of steroids and other related drugs is a problem not just in cycling. Tennis turned out to be pointed out by them quite often.
Andy Murray decided to respond to such critic words. He affirms that steroids and other doping products don’t have any essential role in tennis. This person mentions about differences between tennis and cycling.
According to the tennis player, while steroids and other related products benefit in cycling obviously, these remedies can’t produce any essential changes in tennis players. This athlete thinks that while power that is required in cycling can be enhanced by doping, the skills that are needed in tennis can’t be perfected by steroids and other related drugs.
In fact, similar arguments are used in other sports as well. Baseball and basketball players also affirm that steroids don’t represent any evident problem in their sports because these medications don’t have ability to increase performance in their sports.
But it is impossible to contest effectiveness of steroids on performance of any sportsperson. Since these medicines are capable to increase strength, speed and endurance, they play essential role in tennis and other sports.

Opinion of Alexander Lukashenko about doping

Alexander Lukashenko, the president of Belarus, is also the president of the National Olympic Committee. He was very saddened after the Belarusian female shot-putter Nadzeya Ostapchuk tested positive for a banned product. The president was very frustrated. The Belarusian president turned out to be a serious fan of sports. He was ashamed that representatives of his country spoiled Belarusian’s sports reputation by positives for prohibited medications. As a result, he said that some changes would take place.
The Belarusian president affirmed that it was needed to criminalize intake of forbidden medications in sports. Thus, sports will be probably clean. This statement was pronounced by the Belarusian president after Nadzeya Ostapchuk was caught administering methenolone. This product is better known as Primobolan.
The Belarusian president desires to see that his country succeeds in sports on the international scene. If Alexander Lukashenko desires to clean his country’s sports, he will be able to do it. Some facts display that this person has reached numerous goals related to his country.
In fact, Alexander Lukashenko is a hard president. He was even accused of human rights abuses. He is capable to change the situation in sports by force too.
Lukashenko doesn’t plan to discuss about intake of prohibited drugs in sports. There are other things which should be discussed, according to the Belarusian president.
Anatoliy Tozik, the Vice-President for Alexander Lukashenko, supposed that they could form a sports scientific center that would be sponsored by the state. The center would conduct scientific studies linked with mental and pharmacological support for top sportspersons. The president agreed to form this center.
It is unknown whether the president will clean sports at any cost. Will he use his force for this need?

Drug tests conducted in tennis

David Howman expresses his opinion about point of view about anti-doping policies in some sports organizations. While the director general of the WADA is happy with jobs of several sports organizations, he notes that anti-doping policies in other leagues/teams are not appropriate.
For example, David Howman praises the International Tennis Federation (ITF) for its anti-doping system. David Howman says that anti-doping program is suitable in tennis.
But as for the National Basketball Association (NBA), it doesn’t want to adopt its anti-doping program to that of the WADA. It doesn’t agree to add certain new drug tests in order to catch those that use steroids and/or other forbidden medications. That’s why the director general of the WADA affirms that the anti-doping system of the NBA is not good enough to detect those who dope. He claims that the NBA should add more sophisticated new methods as well.
David Howman claims that drug tests conducted in tennis are of high quality. But there is a defect in tennis’ anti-doping program. Numerous tests take place during competitions. But few tests take place out-of-competition. That’s why ITF’s anti-doping policy is also criticized.
Of course, no one can claim that anti-doping system of ITF is perfect. It has several lacks too. But it is quite adequate.
So, you should not think that tennis is clean from doping wholly. Several tennis players are likely to administer steroids and/or related preparations. But it is not so tainted, as some other sports.
 Just one tennis player was banned for application of banned substances. However it seems to prove that tennis is not tainted, it is important to consider that there are certain methods to prevent positives. As you probably know, the prominent cyclist Lance Armstrong administered steroids and other related preparations and avoided detection much time. Couldn’t tennis players act the same way?

Certain sponsors dropped Lance Armstrong

The USADA released a report linked with doping by the celebrated American cyclist Lance Armstrong. According to the report, this athlete applied steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs. After publishing several sponsors that donated for Lance Armstrong’s charity organization Livestrong decided to cut their relations with this sportsman and his charity organization.
One of companies that decided to discontinue sponsoring the organization which fights against cancer is Nike. This company was working much time with the cyclist. Finally Nike said that it would not have anything longer with the person that was cheating over 10 years.
24 Hour Fitness also refused to collaborate with Lance Armstrong anymore.
Several other companies also made the decision to stop sponsoring Lance Armstrong’s foundation.
However, the American famous cyclist tried to do a lot in order to prevent negative influence of his athletic reputation on the organization that helps individuals with cancer to survive. He announced that he would not be the chairman of the foundation anymore. Although the sportsman tried to keep sponsors, he couldn’t do it.
As for the USADA, it concluded that Lance Armstrong was found guilty of doping. As a result, the athlete received lifetime suspension. Moreover, he lost all 7 titles acquired at Tour de France.
But the International Cycling Union (ICU) said that the USADA made a wrong decision. However Lance Armstrong discontinued fighting against accusations pronounced by the USADA, the ICU affirmed that it would appeal the decision even without involvement of the sportsperson.
Although Lance Armstrong never tested positive for any forbidden substance, it was concluded that he was guilty of doping. It was affirmed that he administered steroids and other banned products but he used several simple as well sophisticated methods in order to prevent positives. So, the athlete was able to dope and remain undetectable.
Now the sportsman pays for his doping. The decision of several companies to discontinue sponsoring his organization is a great loss for this man.

Drug testing should be more sophisticated in NBA

The WADA’s director general David Howman claims that the National Basketball Association (NBA) anti-doping policy is not good enough to catch those that apply banned medications. He states that steroid testing conducted in the NBA is not appropriate. While the NFL and the MLB agreed to accept additional tests, the NBA refused to do the same things.
The basketball player Derrick Rose also said that a lot of NBA players applied steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs. This sport is not clean, according to Derrick Rose. It is believed that David Howman’s point of view linked with  intake of steroids in the NBA is resulted from words said by Derrick Rose.
The NBA doesn’t want to adopt its anti-doping program to that of the WADA. The NBA officers confirm that steroids and other related products don’t have capacity to influence on games and make them unfair. They state that only natural skills and workouts play role in the NBA. According to NBA officers, steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs can’t enhance performance of basketball players. They notice that doping products don’t benefit this sport.
Do NBA officers have a right point of view? Aren’t steroids and other related medicines capable to increase performance of those who play basketball? What does the reality show? What does scientific literature affirm about effects of steroids and other related medications?
In fact, everyone knows that steroids and certain other medications benefit in any sport. They just should be taken correctly and accompanied by suitable meal and workouts. These medicines play significant role in sports. It is impossible to contest effectiveness of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs in basketball. Statements of NBA officers are wrong.
Undoubtedly, any sport organization wants to consider that their sport is clean. Nonetheless, it is necessary to see the reality. That’s why David Howman states that it is important to conduct more and more sophisticated steroid testing in order to catch those that take banned products.

Policeman Keith Gidelson collaborated with other police officers in illegal operations linked with steroids

Illegal sale of steroids is widespread. Although authorities try to eradicate illegal production, distribution, possession and administration of anabolic steroids, several police officers are also involved in such illicit operations. Furthermore, as it is defined, certain police officers mastermind illicit operations related to steroids and other doping products.
The former Philadelphia policeman Keith Gidelson was found guilty of illegal distribution of steroids and some other drugs, such as HGH, IGF-1, anti-estrogen drugs, etc. The medications which were sold by this police officer were labeled as Sciroxx drugs.
Keith Gidelson turned out to be the leader of a drug chain. So, he was not selling steroids alone. He was working together with several other persons, including his wife and two other policemen.
Those that wanted to purchase steroids contacted the Philadelphia police officer via internet. So, customers ordered needed steroids or/and other related medications. Then these products were shipped to the clients.
When orders arrived, Keith Gidelson informed his clients per handy. He called them or sent messages. That’s why it was easy to bust this illicit drug chain. The Philadelphia police officer talked to his clients about anabolic steroids and other related products quite openly. As for his co-workers, they discussed about steroids among them, utilizing several terms.
Such anabolic steroids, as Testosterone Enanthate, Trenbolone Enanthate, Nandrolone Decanoate, etc. were distributed by the police officer and his co-conspirators. These products were obtained from China and Europe. Then they were sold to those that ordered them per internet.  
The police officer will be probably sentenced to imprisonment in January 2013.

What leads those that possess steroids to legal problems?

Several bodybuilders are caught possessing anabolic steroids and other illegal preparations because they make certain mistakes while possessing these drugs. For example, a bodybuilder intends to apply performance-enhancing drugs. He finds a safe online pharmacy and places an order for certain medications. Then he pays for the order. The order is sent. The bodybuilder arrives to a post office and takes the package that contains the medicines which have been ordered by him. Everything seems to be successful. The package has not been intercepted. The products have not been seized. This man takes the drugs and drives home.
Of course, this person can’t wait until he arrives home to begin his cycle with these preparations. He wants to be at home, take the medicines and look in the mirror and see desired results. Thinking about possible benefits and improvement of appearance, this man violates traffic rules. He exceeds speed because he desires to arrive at home sooner. Moreover, this bodybuilder has another problem. He has a suspended driver’s license. When policemen see that he has violated any traffic rule, they stop him. The police officers see that this person has a suspended driver’s license. They search the vehicle. So, the policemen find that this person possesses steroids and other illegal drugs. This man gets legitimate problems. His hope doesn’t become real. He gets problems instead of desired effects.
 Let take Michael Vazquez of Kenmore (New York) as an example. He had a suspended driver’s license while violating traffic laws and possessing steroids. Thus, he got legitimate problems. Since he violated certain traffic rules, he was stopped by policemen that saw that he had a suspended driver’s license. When they searched this person’s vehicle, they found that he possessed steroids, needles and syringes.
So, if you possess steroids and/or other related drugs while driving your car, don’t make such mistakes! Don’t violate traffic laws! Avoid driving with a suspended driver’s license! So, you can avoid legitimate troubles.

Indian authorities did nothing in order to control sale of steroids

Distribution and administration of steroids without a doctor’s prescription are claimed to be illicit in India. But illegal sale and usage of steroids and other related preparations prosper in this state. A lot of athletes get these preparations at pharmacies and supplement stores and take them in order to enhance muscles and performance.
When Indian National Team’s athletes tested positive for prohibited substances at the 2012 London Olympics, attention of authorities was drawn to pharmacies and supplement stores. Local police officers decided to search pharmacies and supplement stores regularly in order to control illegal sale of anabolic steroids and other related medicines. After certain raids several drug stores and supplement stores had been shut down.
Lately police officers searched a pharmacy and two supplement stores located in the southern part of India.
The Parola Pharmacy located in Valancherry was searched by police officers. As it was learnt, steroids and other related products were sold at this pharmacy illegally. Nandrolone phenylpropionate was one of steroids which were identified by police officers. Several other steroids were sold illicitly as well. So, this pharmacy was shut down.
The Health World supplement store located in Kottakkal was also lately raided. Law enforcement officers defined that Methandienone, Equipose, Testosterone Undecanoate and some other steroids were offered for sale at this supplement store. So, it was shut down too.
Another supplement store that was raided was the AM Nutrition store. But it was not prosecuted because no any steroids were sold at the store.
Law enforcement officers plan to continue raids. Certain drug stores and supplement stores may lose their licenses for illegal sale of steroids and other related drugs.

Why do athletes want to be subjected to Tommy John surgery?

High school athletes are ready to do a lot in order to enhance their muscles and improve performance. While several sportspeople try to increase speed, baseball players put efforts in order to increase throwing speed.
What do high school athletes actually do for this goal? You probably know that many sportspersons administer anabolic steroids in order to add muscles and increase performance. But administration of steroids and other related medicines is not the only way that seems to be efficient for several athletic needs. Some high school athletes want to have the operation ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) reconstruction which is also known as Tommy John surgery.
Actually, high school athletes don’t know about several aspects linked with Tommy John surgery. They base their conceptions on the case linked with the baseball player Tommy John who got UCL damage during a baseball game. After the damage he was very unhappy. He thought that didn’t have any chance longer to play baseball professionally. This man visited the surgeon Frank Jobe. The physician operated this person successfully. After the operation Tommy John came back to baseball. Tommy John’s further career was very successful. Tommy John won a lot of games. So, this surgery was called after this man: Tommy John surgery.
When high school athletes find out about Tommy John, they want to become as excellent players, as he was. They believe that the operation promoted winning because the baseball player won more games after the surgery than before. However high school athletes may suppose correctly, they have certain wrong conceptions about this operation. They think that they may be operated in absence of any damage and improve their performance. But high school athletes don’t take into account that no one can return to playing baseball soon after such surgery. Certain period of time is needed to get recovery. Moreover, it is necessary to take in consideration that certain dangers related to Tommy John surgery. They may suffer from irreversible stiff elbow. Several other dangers are also linked with this operation.
Thus, high school athletes don’t comprehend the essence of this surgery properly. When they have elbow pains, they visit their doctors, trying to convince them they should be probably subjected to Tommy John surgery.

Arnold Schwarzenegger couldn’t stop laughing, when he read report about steroids presented by his mother-in-law

Maria Shriver didn’t get pregnant during the first three years of her marriage to the famous American bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger. Her mother was in trouble. Since the bodybuilder took steroids, she feared that these products could cause infertility in him. That’s why Arnold Schwarzenegger’s mother-in-law presented a scientific report about steroids to her daughter. The report enumerated possible negative reactions of steroids, including infertility.
Arnold Schwarzenegger claimed that he saw this report on the desk of his wife occasionally. So, the bodybuilder read it. The bodybuilder laughed a lot. The bodybuilder affirmed that his mother-in-law was out of control.
But the bodybuilder’s mother-in-law troubled without any reason. Her daughter and Arnold Schwarzenegger became parents of four kids. Moreover, Arnold Schwarzenegger got a kid as a result of his extra-marital relations. So, it was obvious that steroids didn’t have any negative impact on reproductive system of this person.
Do steroids produce infertility in male consumers? These preparations suppress natural secretion of the hormone testosterone. That’s why men who take these preparations may have infertility. But it is important to note that this undesirable effect is not permanent. When men stop using steroids, their natural production of testosterone is restored. Thus, this unwanted reaction disappears.  
The autobiography written by Arnold Schwarzenegger reveals many interesting aspects related to steroids. This bodybuilder applied steroids during his competitive career. Anabolic steroids helped him to succeed. Application of these remedies was not forbidden in professional bodybuilding, when Arnold Schwarzenegger competed.

Risks linked with steroids are not taken seriously by many people

Timothy Armstrong of the World Health Organization states that anabolic steroids are dangerous for public health. While these preparations are frequently abused by sportspeople, bodybuilders and ordinary individuals for increase of muscle mass and energy, they may have negative impact on physical and psychological health of users. Unfortunately, dangers related to these medicines are not attended seriously. However many specialists warn that these preparations may lead to dangerous side reactions, numerous individuals continue to administer them for athletic needs.
Timothy Armstrong puts efforts to protect public health. He has presented a speech about intake of steroids at a conference organized by the chairman of the International Olympic Committee Arne Ljungqvist. Thus, Timothy Armstrong helps to eliminate illegal usage of steroids.
As for Arne Ljungqvist, he tries to fight against application of steroids in sports. According to the chairman of the International Olympic Committee, application of steroids represents a moral problem. Those that administer doping products don’t compete fairly. They take unfair advantage over those that don’t apply these preparations. So, they act improperly.
Undoubtedly, Arne Ljungqvist is happy that Timothy Armstrong is also against intake of steroids. He confirms that anti-doping agencies should work with the World Health Organization more closely. The united efforts will be able to eliminate usage of performance-enhancing drugs from professional sports.
Timothy Armstrong states that anti-doping agencies should have direct links with law enforcements and customs officers. If they work together, their fight against illicit deals connected with steroids and other controlled substances will be more efficient. They should inform each other about persons that have something to do with illegal medicines. So, they will be able to reach their goals.

Steroid user murdered little girl

Audrey Allen, an 18-month old baby, was killed by Joshua Allen Kruzik.
The little girl was murdered because she cried in the middle of the night. Joshua Allen Kruzik, an US marine, a friend of Audrey Allen’s parents, decided to spend weekends at their friends’ home. Before he came to their place, he was at a local bar where he drank much alcohol. He had to care about the little girl, when she cried. But Joshua Allen Kruzik beat the baby too cruelly. As a result, the little girl got multiple serious head injuries. She died at a local hospital.
David Kohn, the defense attorney for the murderer, claimed that steroids were responsible for the abnormal behavior of his client. It was said that the murderer used anabolic steroids. Before the incident he tried to discontinue applying these preparations but he was not able to do it. David Kohn stated that anabolic steroids produced “roid rage” in Joshua Allen Kruzik. He couldn’t not control himself and beat the baby. According to David Kohn, Kruzik was unconscious. However David Kohn confirmed that Kruzik was ready to assume the whole responsibility, he added that he was not guilty.
The little child’s parents also confirmed that the murderer administered anabolic steroids. The mother of the baby said that she had syringes at her home. Thus, she injected Kruzik with steroids, when he came. Certain other persons also claimed that he took steroids.
It is strange that anabolic steroids are blamed in this situation. Are these drugs responsible for the crime? Remember that Kruzen has been drunk, when he has murdered the baby!
It is not clear whether this defense strategy will work.

Just correct usage of steroids promotes getting muscles and endurance

However natural bodybuilders put efforts to manifest that they can be as muscular as consumers of steroids, they fail to do it. Even those that have suitable nutrition and hard workouts can’t gain the same muscle mass and energy like consumers of steroids. Gains which can be acquired because of suitable usage of steroids and other related remedies are much more significant than those which are obtained through natural methods.
But you should know that steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs can’t enhance muscle mass and energy, if users don’t have intensive trainings and proper nutrition. However steroids have ability to promote getting muscles and endurance, it is not sufficient just to use these medicines. Steroid users must not be lazy persons. Otherwise, they will fail to obtain desired effects. If steroid users don’t train hardly during application of performance-enhancing drugs, they may get additional troubles instead of positive effects.
Those that are going to use steroids in order to add muscles and increase endurance should plan their trainings and diets. It is important to train hardly. Nonetheless, it is necessary to consider that muscles don’t grow, if they don’t have any rest. That’s why it is necessary to have well-planned workouts. Trainings and time of rest should be rotated suitably.
Moreover, it is required to plan which kinds of exercises should be performed. Your heart must work suitably, if you desire to increase your muscles with steroids. That’s why cardio exercises should take place 3-4 hours every week.
Another aspect that should be taken into account is nutrition. Muscles can be enhanced, if enough protein is consumed. Steroids and other related drugs can’t increase muscles and add strength without usual physiological processes. Keep in mind that steroids don’t work magically! They act through stimulation of natural processes which occur in the body.
If you want to increase your muscle mass and energy with steroids, you should study and follow several guidelines linked with nutrition which are useful for achievement of these goals.

Which doses of steroids were used by Arnold Schwarzenegger?

Arnold Schwarzenegger took anabolic steroids. These remedies promoted winning. The bodybuilder admitted that he succeeded because of these remedies significantly. But he also said that other competitive bodybuilders applied these products too. The famous bodybuilder was aware of the fact that all top athletes and bodybuilders administered anabolic steroids. If Arnold Schwarzenegger had not applied doping products, other bodybuilders would have had unfair advantage over him.
However the prominent bodybuilder admitted to administration of steroids, he never apologized. Administration of these drugs was not forbidden, when Arnold Schwarzenegger competed. Application of steroids and other related medications didn’t represent any problem in bodybuilding during that time.
Arnold Schwarzenegger noted that he didn’t know about risks linked with intake of these medicines. But he also added that earlier bodybuilders didn’t apply increased measures like current bodybuilders.  That’s why it was not dangerous to administer these products.
Today it is necessary to take into account that athletes and bodybuilders take very increased dosages that may have negative influence on health. Intake of increased doses normally causes severe permanent side consequences. That’s why Arnold Schwarzenegger is against usage of steroids for performance-enhancing effects. Doses that were applied by the celebrated bodybuilder were lower by 20 times than those taken by current bodybuilders. That’s why Arnold Schwarzenegger cooperated with International Federation of Bodybuilders against application of doping products in professional bodybuilding.

Illegal users of HGH usually take also anabolic-androgenic steroids and recreational drugs

Human Growth Hormone (HGH) has been originally introduced for clinical needs. This medication is indicated to cure kids with growth disorders and grown-ups that experience deficiency of growth hormone and associated disorders. But this product is frequently abused. A lot of weightlifters and other sportspersons administer this medication for athletic purposes. Under laws of several countries, including the USA, purchase and intake of this product for non-therapeutic purposes are considered to be illicit.
Although this medicine is illegal without any prescription, it is not difficult to obtain it. HGH is widely available at online drug stored. Moreover, steroid dealers sell this preparation. Since the price is not increased, many athletes have possibility to buy it.
Those who use HGH illegally abuse also other preparations. They are not limited just by illegal usage of this drug. Which products are also abused by consumers of HGH?
Certain scientists decided to conduct a study connected with illicit intake of HGH. They enrolled 230 weightlifters aged 18-40 into the research. The experts could define that the most of these weightlifters took not only HGH but also anabolic-androgenic steroids and insulin-like growth factor-1. Furthermore, many of them took recreational drugs, such as cocaine, ecstasy, etc.
Which dangers are faced by those who administer enhanced dosages of HGH prolonged period of time? Unluckily, negative results resulted from enhanced dosages of this product are not studied sufficiently because health care providers usually don’t prescribe high quantities.  Increased doses are commonly used by those who apply this preparation for performance-enhancing effects. But it is known that usage of increased quantities during long period of time may lead to dangerous negative consequences. This preparation may affect different systems, including endocrine, respiratory, cardiovascular, etc. It is necessary to be very cautious because enhanced measures of this preparation are associated even with cancer.

Corticosteroids lead to post-op bleeding

More and more children are subjected to tonsillectomies. The number of surgeries in children younger than 15 years old has enhanced essentially.
After tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy kids may have vomiting and nausea. Thus, health care providers direct applying corticosteroids during operations in order to reduce these post-operation adverse effects.
Unfortunately, while corticosteroids reduce risks/severity connected with nausea and vomiting, they are associated with several other troubles. They may produce bleeding during and after tonsillectomies. Late studies have manifested that the number of complications after tonsillectomies has increased during some last years. Since number of tonsillectomies becomes more increased, complications appear more frequently too.
Several specialists decided to determine whether bleeding occurs after tonsillectomies because of corticosteroids. They tried to find out whether there is any significant difference in appearing of bleeding between kids who use the corticosteroid dexamethasone during tonsillectomies and those that are not given this drug. Thus, the scientists enrolled over 300 children in the study.
Results of the trial have displayed that bleeding of the levels I and II are enhanced by 5% in those who are given a single dosage of dexamethasone during tonsillectomy.
So, corticosteroids don’t increase the risk linked with post-operation bleeding obviously. However scientists doubt about safety of corticosteroids used during tonsillectomies, they don’t increase severe bleeding events significantly.
