1) Anabolic steroids are synthetic substances similar to the male hormone testosterone that are prescribed to treat medical issues but are also used illegally to build muscle mass. 2) Early Olympic athletes were known to ingest animal testicles before competitions in an early form of doping, and modern doping with steroids has been occurring for thousands of years in sports. 3) Men who take steroids illegally often develop feminine characteristics like grown breasts and have decreased sperm counts and testicle shrinkage, while some high-profile athletes like Lance Armstrong have been accused of orchestrating doping rings in their sports.

Anabolic Steroids?

2. What are Anabolic Steroids?
Anabolic steroids are synthetic substances similar to the male hormone testosterone. Doctors prescribe
them to treat problems such as delayed puberty and other medical problems that cause the body to make
very low amounts of testosterone. Steroids make muscles bigger and bones stronger. They also may cause
puberty to start and can help some boys who have a genetic disorder to grow more normally.
Anabolic steroids may be taken as a pill, as a shot into a muscle, or as a gel or cream rubbed on the skin.

3. Anabolic Steroids History
Anabolic steroids did not receive a worldwide audience until the 20th century but the use of pure testosterone
can be traced back to the original Olympic Games; keep in mind, it is the hormone testosterone for which all
anabolic steroids owe their foundation. Early Olympic athletes, those we may call the fathers of modern
athletics were known to ingest animal testicles before a competition; sometimes for extended periods before
their meet was to take place. It is doubtful our forefathers understood what they were doing but they were on
the right track. One can’t help but wonder who first thought of this novel idea and the idea of eating raw animal
testicles is enough to make any stomach turn but as now the same could be said then; if there is an advantage
to be had people will find it and grab hold. If we take it down to its bare skin and bones, “Sports Doping” has
been going on for thousands of years.

5. Anabolic Steroids in the news
The latest doping scandal in recent hockey history has reportedly hit the Russian under-18 squad the day before they were
set to depart for Grand Forks, N.D., to play in the 2016 U18 World Championships, which begin next week.
According to AllHockey.ru, a large portion of the Russian U18 squad has tested positive for meldonium, which was added to
the banned substances list by the World Anti-Doping Agency as of Jan. 1, 2016. Shortly after the news broke, U18 coach
Vitaly Prokhorov told R-Sport the “team will change,” and added he had been fired by the Minister of Sport and would not be
with the club at the competition.
Along with speculation that the U17 squad would take the U18 team’s place in Grand Forks, the U18 roster was erased from
the team’s website. And though the Russian Hockey Federation hasn’t made an official statement regarding the reports,
Russian U17 coach Sergey Golubovic confirmed that it would be his club travelling to North Dakota for the tournament in
place of the U18 team.

6. Lance Armstrong
Former cycling champion Lance Armstrong had blood transfusions during races, administered testosterone to himself and team-
mates and orchestrated a 'code of silence' in the sport by threatening whistleblowers, doping investigators have alleged.
In a 200-page report, Armstrong is also accused of threatening to fire USPS team members who did not use performance
enhancing drugs and is said to have paid $1million into the Swiss bank account of an Italian doctor alleged to have helped fake
blood tests.
The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency said in a statement: 'The USPS Team doping conspiracy was professionally designed to groom and
pressure athletes to use dangerous drugs, to evade detection, to ensure its secrecy and ultimately gain an unfair competitive
advantage through superior doping practices.'
The programme was described as being 'organised by individuals who thought they were above the rules and who still play a major
and active role in sport today'.
The Livestrong Foundation (stylized as LIVESTRONG) is a United States nonprofit organization that provides support for people
affected by cancer. The foundation, based in Austin, Texas, was established in 1997 by cancer survivor and former professional
road racing cyclist Lance Armstrong.

8. American football Anabolic Steroids history!
Skill positions such as wide receivers and defensive backs have not grown at the same rate as the 300-pound
offensive linemen, but they have gotten much stronger and faster. Every major college and professional sport has
seen their own trend of increased muscle mass and strength. Athletes have gotten much stronger and faster over
the past few decades, but this has to be expected with advances in sports nutrition and a stronger focus on
strength and conditioning within organized sports now starting at a younger age. Now, these factors are involved in
today's athlete being bigger, stronger, and leaner, but I do believe that performance-enhancing drugs have played
a role in these improvements as well. Use of anabolic steroids in the NFL is well documented during the 70s and
80s. Steroids were not banned in the NFL until 1987, and the league did not start handing out sanctions for positive
steroid tests until 1989.

9. What happens when women takes anabolic steroids?

10. My thoughts about Anabolic Steroids!
I don´t like anabola steroids and never will. I don´t think it´s fair play for those who train hard and lose
because of cheating. To prevent this I think we should find a judge who can´t be bought for any money and
hates anabola steroids as much as I do.
Or I think it mayby works if all samples ar shown to random people who are told they gonna be judges for a
day and they get to look at the samples. The biggest reason that many take anabolic steroids i think are
that you are to lazy to eat properly and train right.
