Athlete And Steroid
Thursday, February 1st, 2007 Subscribe To Our Feed
Every athlete has the strong desire to have an advantage over the opponents. This desire exists in all sports, at all levels, in every country, every time and everything is decided during the competitions. Hard work, practice, talent and skills are increasing power, ability and speed.
Some athletes are using steroids hoping to improve the performance, their aspect and there are many stories involving well known athletes taking substances containing steroids. Player has died as a result of taking this kind of drugs, in most unfortunate situations. Some are collapsing and died during the trainings or competitions. In Olympic competitions, there are some athletes who have had their golden silver or bronze medals taken from them. The use of steroids in not only illegal, but it is also producing many serious side effects.
Athlete and steroids are not a good combination, the anabolic steroids use is a permanent risk for the athletes. Athletes are tempted to increase their strength and mass. There are sports where weight is important (rowing, box, wrestling) and athletes are often using diuretics. Some athletes are trying to replace normal diuretics with anabolic steroids.
HGH (human growth hormone) is working in a similar manner with steroids; it is produced by the pituitary gland and is vital for normal development. HGH is similar to steroids, in excess leads to muscles development on excess and increase in bone mass.
As everybody knows, there are many important risks when athletes and steroids are combined. Athletes are tempted to use steroids, to win without hard work, skill and talent. The temptation is always present because the rewards of shattering records are important: great contracts, advertising opportunities, glory.
The actress and actors are using surgery or other procedure to have a youthful glow; the athlete and steroids seem to have the same effect, searching the way to make their product more attractive and efficient.
Some people may ask if the athletes using steroids are only trying to find a way to improve their performances. But we must consider also the message sent to the public. The adults can have the necessary knowledge to avoid the use of steroids, but the adolescents can be tempted to follow the athletes’ bad example, using anabolic steroids. The danger to very young athletes is really important, because their bodies are not yet developed completely. The youngest athletes temped to use steroids can face the danger to sacrifice their life or their health condition.
The athlete must playing fair and the take care of their safety and health in the same time. Athlete and steroid is not only illegal, but it is against the natural way to compete. Athlete and steroids is the combination that leads to easy success, quick and without hard work, but this is not the fair way to become the best. Is a quick and easy success the best price for making his health in danger? Are the steroids the best way to follow to stand out, athletically and physically? Athlete and steroids are only the combination that leads only to a seriously damaging the body, to be disqualified and have the entire career destroyed.
