That's not what in think body building is about. Body building to me is about getting a healthy body, healthy mind. I can't see anything rewarding about taking these drugs.

To me it gives me the message that "I don't care about my health, i'll do anything to get big".

I am not saying that your comments do not have any credability as there is a bit of truth to your statement although only when applied to a few people here certainly not all and you haven't made that distinction.

For example have a read of my posts and please tell me that I am not interested in my or others health or HAckskii for that matter.

For someone as new to the board as yourself, criticising the community you just joined, is not a way to win friends,I am sure you knew that when you made your statement.

So can I ask, what qualifies you to be so judgemental?

You say its not what you consider bodybuilding to be about, but what experience do you have?

Do you have any evidence to substantiate your claim that steroid use is saying ''I dont care about my health and I will do anything to get big''

I actually agree with the aboe statement when applied to many of this years new joiners to the board, but that is why the moderators and others with more experience, try to steer noobs away from AAS and onto a path of natural health. If people insist they are going to use AAS regardless of our warnings, then we advice them how to do it safely, taking as many precautions as possible, read the numerous PCT threads, supplements threads in particular my vitamin thread

I think you will get flame grilled for starting this thread, you don't know us well enough to judge us, and your statement was innacurrate, however, I think what you have done is a good thing as it will highlight a few important points to the new joiners.

Thanks for that post Stanco......

Just one thing, as you are so sure that steroids are detrimental to health please can you post some links to information you have studied to back this point up?

Which post's on UK-M, from senior members, lead you to your sweeping 'I dont care' statement? Agreed some new members have that logic, but they are not encouraged they are pointed in the right direction.

I use steriods, and I see myself as healthy, as does my doctor.

Also one last point, steriods are only discussed in the steriod section so if you dont agree with it then dont go in there.

There are plenty of boards where steroid use is not talked about.

There are drugs in every sport and thats what you have to accept. There are guys who will rinse the gear and not pay attention to their diet and training but thats just the way things are. As for rewards, personally the rewards for me are

1. I like the way my physique looks
2. I love the feeling of being on stage and looking like a freaky muscle beast
3. Gear aside I am one of the healthiest people you will come across, i don't drink or smoke or do recreational drugs and my diet is spot on.
3. I get loads of chicks

Bodybuilding is about getting a healthy body and mind yes but competitive bodybuilding is an extreme and at any professional level you have drugs

Do you think every cyclist in the world uses EPO for endurance? of course not but cycling is a healthy pursuit.

And every person who does athletics doesnt use THG etc but this was used at the Olympic level.

No one on this board says that steroids are a healthy pursuit but not everyone on this board uses gear. Also if you look at www.uk-muscle.com a site I also mod on there is no discussion about steroid use there but none of the natural guys there will slate gear users as they understand that to reach a certain ideal physique you have to use.

Oh BTW to any members who feel the urge to insult this guy for this post, dont cos I'll immediately edit your post and send you an infraction. This is a discussion board and I wont accept ganging up on him because he has raised a sensitive topic.

Cheers

Also agree with others replys.................

Just like to add that I too dont smoke, drink, do recreational drugs and also have a good diet.

I also attend gym 4 times per week, do cardio in my house 6 times per week (While most "Normal" people are sleeping) and tend to get involved in other outdoor / active persuit's.
While most normal people were watching TV, sleeping, going to a pub resturant, cinema etc I have been working hard in the gym.

So, in comparison to 99% of the population I am EXTREMLEY fit and healthy.

RALMAO

carpe diem

your views are accepted stanco but i am proof that the moderators and peeps on here always steer you in the right direction, i only came here to get info on steroids but they have all changed my mind and told me to get a good diet and put on natural weight before i even consider steroids,i feel now is the right time to say a big thankyou to all of you whom have pointed me in the right direction " THANKYOU ALL"

LEWIS

if it was not for the advice i have been given on this site due to it being open to conversation, i would be in a lesser health state than i am now (also would my friends as they wuld have listend to my logic), on many occasions i have been pointed to the right direction i would have been taking the steroid without any guidence - now i have guidence - which is surley better for my health.

Maybe we could do with a "natural" MOD on here?
