Anyone knows that anabolic steroids are frequently blamed. If an athlete or a bodybuilder uses steroids and/or other doping products, he/she is called a cheater. Sportswriters report about such sportspersons as about those who have spoiled their reputation. Anti-doping officials put great efforts and spend money in other to catch athletes that dope. Even the government spends taxpayers’ funds and time in order to prove that some sportspersons have taken steroids and/or doping products. It is claimed that those who dope take unfair advantages in sports.
Numerous articles describe the war on steroids. But let see whether arguments against application of steroids are strong enough to prove that it is disgraceful to administer them.
It is affirmed that steroid-using sportspersons serve as a bad example for kids and young individuals. It is known that youth sees numerous sports stars that use steroids and other related remedies. As a result, young people desire to look and be as strong, as these famous sports figures. Furthermore, it is widely disputed about health risks connected with steroids. But if you are attentive, you can notice that these arguments are weak because hypocrisy reigns here.
Let examine the most frequently used arguments against usage of anabolic steroids and/or other related medications.
According to the first argument, usage of steroids is closely associated with certain possible health risks. Numerous articles warn about testicular atrophy and enlargement of heart which may occur on account of steroid use. However it may be true, let analyze our life. We eat unhealthy food, although we know that it destroys our health. Some individuals take antidepressants that are also very unsafe. We are also involved in other unhealthy activities.
According to another argument against steroids, steroid-using sportspersons have unfair advantages in competitions. They win because they improve performance with these drugs. Let see what happens in other areas, for example, in the world of entertainment. Numerous actors and actresses improve their appearances and performances in order to play several roles in movies. They also have unfair advantages over others with the help of several surgeries and other things. But they are not sentenced to suspensions.
While it is affirmed that steroid-using sportspeople send bad messages to young individuals that want to look like them and follow their examples, nobody mentions about the bad example of actors and actresses. Young girls also want to look like those they see in magazines.
While feds pursue sportspersons that take steroids, they have nothing to do with actors and actresses that act like steroid-using athletes.
It is clear that arguments against intake of steroids are quite weak. They display hypocrisy that reigns in our counterfeit world.
