A Failure of Perspective


Tweet

The “Health” section of the BBC News web site is my browser home page, so it was impossible to miss this headline: “Bodybuilder scarred from steroids.”

Hoo-boy…here we go again…

Anyone considering using steroids to bulk up may want to think again after seeing pictures of the horrific scars suffered by one young bodybuilder.

German doctors were shocked at the extent of the massive, deep ulcerating sores on the chest and back of the 21-year-old man.

After antiseptic and antibiotic therapy the wounds healed but left permanent scars, The Lancet reported.

You might want to pause before clicking that link, btw…the pics aren’t very pretty.

Steroid Use in Pro Sports

The Facts about anabolic steroids in sports

Hello folks, welcome to my new blog. Although I am best known for my writings on nutrition, weight loss, supplements, and bodybuilding, I also like to comment on larger issues, in this case, drugs in sports.

As some of you know, the “Mitchell Report” came out in 2007 and named names as far as steroid use in pro baseball. Those who may wish to read the entire report can see the URL below1. Of course anabolic steroid use goes MUCH further than baseball. If anything, baseball is a sport that has minimal steroid use compared to other sports. If any of you ever read the book that broke the baseball steroid story entitled Game of Shadows: Barry Bonds, BALCO, and the Steroids Scandal that Rocked Professional Sports., yours truly is quoted on page 46 of that book2.

Back to the Mitchell Report…

I was interviewed by Senator Mitchell’s group about this issue during their research, though I have nothing directly to do with pro baseball or any pro baseball players, but I am well known for my expertise in this area.
