Should I use anabolic steroids?

June 16, 2017 by mramino

“Steroids work outside the body, nutrition works with the body.” A factual statement by the late Leroy Colbert. AAS(Anabolic Androgenic Steroids) are very popular.

No injuries to report in my 20 plus years of weight training. I credit being injury free to always emphasizing safety in my workouts. Ego lifting, a type of lifting we see on a constant basis in gyms worldwide, will eventually lead to injury. Although it’s done mostly by men, there are many women who try to impress with the extra poundage as well. As I stressed in one of my previous posts, focus on health, unless one is powerlifting, or olympic weightlifting, it makes no sense trying to determine what one’s one rep max is or trying to imitate the many reckless ‘Youtube stars’ who use terrible form when demonstrating lifts.

It happens every day: people join a gym and have no idea what exercises to start doing.
