    I saw that docu a while back and to be honest it was very one sided. They spent 54 mins talking about how harmful steroids and gave the one person who said he had been on them for years only about 30seconds.

    I don't take roids myself but I appreciate that when taken properly and as part of a strict diet and workout routine can provide great results. In this show they ignored all that and essentially said this will happen to you if you take roids. What they didn't say is that the main person in this docu Gregg Valentino was chewing them like they were sweets. Obviously your body will fight back if your doing that to it.

    So are ye suggesting a case could be made in favour of steroid use?

    I assume your referring to me there?

    In short not really. As I said I personally dont use them, never have, never will. That said there are a few on this board that do use them and responsibly so. Everything I knew about steroids was from a very one sided media but when you talk to educated people such as a few I could name that post here you get to understand the other side of the coin that the media don't like to promote. This is the same media in this country that not long ago on a very popular drive time radio show stated that creatine was a mind altering drug that had the same properties as cocaine and should be banned!

    In short I'm not going to say to you roids are safe or unsafe, thats for you to decide. I'm simply saying there is another view out there that actually has in most cases better and more constructive arguments.

    Gregg Valentino used a mixture of roids and synthol and yes your correct they are two completely different things.

    Well no anyone really.

    I don't know much about it but as you say my attitude is influnenced by the one side the media portrays.
    I wasn't trying to be high and mighty just wanting to know a bit more about the other side of the coin.
