Steroids
Steroids right from their invention have been in debate
among the athletes and the bodybuilders for its use. Those athletes and
bodybuilders who wish to get superiority over their counterparts have a
tendency of using them. The ratio of using Steroids
is much higher in the bodybuilders as they have no obligation to anyone of its
use. Many bodybuilders find it difficult to decide whether to use the Steroids or not considering its side
effects with regard to their health. It is better to take the natural route of
bodybuilding rather than taking the route of using Steroids.
The
first reason of why the Steroids
based bodybuilding is not good choice is that as soon as the bodybuilders leave
the intake of Steroids, they face
the dilemma of muscle atrophy. This means that the size of the muscles gets
reduced. This is a very sorrow sight for bodybuilders and often they get
depressed by this. Apart from this, they also lose strength. One cannot take
the steroids all his life in order to have great muscles and enormous strength.
There has to be an end and when this end comes, then the dilemma starts and
they face muscle atrophy and face a reduction in their strength. It looks
similar like someone filling air in a balloon and then lets the air out of it.
So it is advisable that the bodybuilders do not take Steroids regularly rather they should choose a period of 6-10 weeks
and then have a break in it and so on.
A bodybuilder choosing to body build in a natural
way may not be able to develop that much Hugh muscles that the one using steroids may develop. Neither may he be
able to develop good muscles in very short time as the ones using Steroids do. But one thing is for sure
that the muscles they develop are durable and would last longer than those who
use Steroids. By choosing to body
build in a natural way, a body builder has to work hard upon his body to get in
shape. It develops a stable growth in his muscles and they last for longer
period of time but in order to be in shape, the bodybuilder has to work out at
intense level. Otherwise he would also get out of shape. The use of Steroids may give to instant results
but you will get them by endangering your health and for that matter, your life
expectancy time. The side effects of the steroids are many and all of them are
related to your health. You are endangering your life by using them. You get
more prone to cancer and the possibility of heart attack shoots up
exponentially. One can die of using anabolic Steroids without being prescribed to them by a medical specialist.
There are quite a few examples where people have actually died of it use and
several have been sent to jail of selling the anabolic Steroids. So it could be easily concluded that the disadvantages of
Steroids overshadow the few advantages that it has.
