  Seems like there is censorship on this forum - the post on steroids has been deleted.
  
  This is a subject that need to be openly discussed - education is what is needed other wise you will end up 19yo taking them without any knowledge of what they are doing.
  
  Here are two points to start with.
  
  You shouldn't even think about using them if under 25 and have at least 5 years of serious training under your belt - I mean serious training!
  
  I am no promoting their use but if people are going to use them let educate them.... maybe they wont use them after being educated.

  I think marco deleted it.
  
  I only edit nonsensical posts by people(like you know who) or stupid threads that are not of any value.

  sorry if i have been bringing out an old topic, but i really think there should be education on this subject, better than keeping things in the dark. but there's no need to be evangelists, just informing us is enough. =)

  ok... but are you ready for the truth....????
  
  When used in correctly.... (this is the important part)
  
  None!
  
  In fact they can extend life!
  
  There has NEVER been a death related to anabolic steroids.... don't believe what you hear in the media. Much of it is propaganda out of the US.

  erm i tot will get hair loss?
  
  and i've heard that if u stop exercising if u take it,
  
  ur muscles will become like flabby flabby like dat?

  haha....
  
  mmmm...... no
  
  Hair loss is a possible side effect - if not used correctly. You have to know what you are doing... hence the reason for this thread.
  
  Please read above about min age and training duration before even thinking about them.

  I'm 24, and I have only few yrs of non-serious training, and I don't think I will possibly ever take steroids.
  
  Steroids are like shortcuts, and feeds on humans' laziness. Because of that, many people over-dosed (i guess) leading to the many problems.

  Even if you don't take steroids and had muscles, they will become flabby too when you stop exercising. This is not mainly due to steroids I think.

  Many people have said that steroids are the easy way out....
  
  funny thing is everyone single person I know who has used them as said that its not a easy way out because now they have to train so much harder - the steroids help them recover from the training session but they have to do the actual work first.
  
  Good on you going the natural way - hope others follow your example.

  I just think that training for "show" is useless. It's one's own health and fitness. The side-effect of steroids are still rather unknown, and I rather stick to other means of recovering =D

  Seeing steroids have been around for over 60 years compared to 80% of the drugs on the market today that have been around less than 10 years.
  
  Can name names but one recent drug approved by the FDA killed 20,000 people.
  
  Let's keep to just the facts in this thread and not opinions.
