Cheap Steroids danger

You've been going to the gym everyday and working your butt off. You drink protein shakes, eat loads of natural protein, do everything right, and see some muscle gain. Your happy. Then you notice the new guy at gym is getting big really fast. He only started eight weeks ago and he's putting on size like there's no tomorrow.

Obviously he's on steroids and your starting to wonder whether you should chuck in the towel or jump on the train. It's tempting. Why work so hard when you're only going to see mediocre results compared to the other guy.

Steroids do work, but are they worth it? And are the results guaranteed?

Hundreds of distinct steroids have been identified in plant, animals, and fungi. The steroids associated with muscle growth are called anabolic steroids.

They not only effect muscle tissue but various other organs as well. Testosterone is the most potent natural anabolic steroid.

Testosterone is primarily secreted in the testicals of males and the ovaries of females. On average, an adult's male body produces about twenty times the amount of testosterone of an adult female's body.

The side effects of using anabolic steroids vary depending on the kind of drug, dosage, duration of use and individual sensitivity and response.

To be straight with you, there are more stories and myths about steroid effects than you can poke a stick at.

So if you think you can handle that, then you're all set... Well, not really.

This is what is called "roid rage".

A case study published in the Australian Medical Journal (165:222-26) reviewed the evidence concerning the effects of anabolic steroids on the mind.

The case centered on a 29-year-old bodybuilder who beat his wife to death using a weapon described as a claw hammer. While he committed this horrific act, his four children were in another part of the house.

This man had used steroids off and on for years, and seven weeks before the murder, he had used a steroid stack consisting of Winstrol-V and sustanon, both injectable steroids. A later urine test showed that he also used Valium, a muscle relaxant and anti-anxiety drug.

This doesn't mean if you take steroids you are going to lose it and become an angry incredible hulk. But it definitely rings warning bells.

That means they will go through withdrawal when they stop using. They can feel sick to their stomach, have headaches, sweat a lot, feel dizzy and be depressed.

When steroids are sold on the street or in a gym, they are often mixed with other things which only increases your risks.

Several Olympic athletes have lost their medals after they were tested and found to have used steroids to bulk up.

That doesn't necessarily mean your chest and biceps are going to pop out of your shirt first. There are some cases where users experienced very little gain on their chest and massive gain on their shoulders and traps. Who else wants to become the next hunchback? Not me.
