Are steroids always bad in terms of bodybuilding/wrestling/sports?
Steroids are not always bad, but abusing them is. For example, I’m asthmatic. I’m on a medically perscribed, inhalent steroid for my lungs. Doctors may use them for helping a patient recover from certain surgeries. It’s when they are abused that they become bad. Some people use steroids meant for race horses. Now imagine that. A horse is much bigger than a human. Animal steroids are not even for the right physiology, but some people will use them anyway, just to look buff. Other times, doctors hand them out, or write perscriptions to abusers. Take the Chris Benoit case for example. Law enforcement thinks he obtained steroids through his doctor. Like any drug, abusers build a tolerance to it. Their body adjusts to accomidate the drugs, so they need more and more to acheive it’s effect. So yes, there are good things steroids can be used for, it’s when things get out of control that there is a problem.
