I am Steve Turano, welcome to this episode of Body Performance. Today I want to talk about Anabolic steroids. If you are walking to any gym in America you are going to be exposed to somebody who is taking anabolic steroids. What are anabolic steroids? They are real medications offered by doctors to people who are very sick but one of the main side effects of steroids is that the increase protein synthesis, which means they increase your bodies ability to make muscle. This is why body builders take them so they can grow muscle in a much faster rate. They are a myriad of negative side effects associated with steroids. Hair loss growth, acne, any wide variety of cancers but the most important thing is you need to be aware of is that the benefits of steroids go away when you stop taking them.
I do not care what anybody says; when you stop taking steroids you lose all the strengths you gained and all the muscle you gain you will not keep one ounce of either. So need to be aware of these, when you see some moron in the gym lifting the 20 pounds weights and it is huge and you are lifting the 25 weights and it is huge then you are lifting the 50 pound weights you are not quite as big as him and you are wondering what are you doing wrong. You are not doing anything wrong; the different is you are not taking the easy way out. Steroids make things so much easier. This is why you cannot advice from a guy or a website or magazine that promotes to use steroids because people do jot understand how to get in shape without this types of drugs, do it naturally. You keep your muscles a lot longer and be a lot healthier. Love your body. I see you next time.
