Why you should stay miles away from anabolic steroids

Posted on

Anabolic steroids are known to give athletes a competitive edge over their peers, and over the years, have found their way into modern-day sports. Besides being illegal, anabolic steroids are outright dangerous and can have many long term side effects, and affecting your health adversely.

Why you should stay away from it:

One of the major reasons we work out is to look good and have an attractive physique, but one part that often gets overlooked is that we also workout to maintain good overall health and a live a good quality of life. While anabolic steroids are known to provide gym-goers with instant results, one needs to remember that these shortcuts come with a price and more often than not, they can cost you your health. Some of the many side effects are liver and kidney tumours, enlarged heart, hormonal imbalances, elevated blood pressure, just to name a few. Given these known side effects, one needs to ask themselves, if it is really worth risking their lives, just to look aesthetically pleasing? Besides, the gains that you make when consuming steroids will almost completely go away, once you stop consuming them, which would then result in you wanting to continue consuming them for a prolonged time.

Opt for a healthier option:

Instead of flushing your hard-earned money down the drain, and messing around with your health, it is better to invest your time and efforts in coming up with an effective workout plan and focusing more on your nutrition. You can even invest in protein supplements, protein bars, creatine etc., which over the years, have been proven to provide athletes achieve excellent results, without any side effects and protein supplements are known to help boost one's immunity and help you in recovering faster after a strenuous workout session. If you find that you are unable to stick to a certain diet, then consult a nutritionist, who will prepare customized meal plans, that you can enjoy and stick to.

It's all in the mind:

While achieving an attractive physique might be your goal, remember that how you get there and achieve your goals, is as important as the end result. While you may want to achieve those goals faster, you need to remember that it is your life and health that is at stake. You need to take up fitness as a challenge and once you start seeing results, use that as a motivation to push you further. While it is easy to opt for an easier route, the joy and satisfaction that one experiences by sticking to a disciplined and well-planned nutrition and training regime. In fact, not only will you start seeing visible changes, you are surely going to leave everyone around you impressed.

 

No matter what your fitness goals are, you should, at all costs, refrain from using anabolic steroids, as no fitness goal is greater than your health.
