Hi i was looking at some sci body builders in the US and being a body builder before my sci and having used steroids prior to the sci i would not even think of doing it now down to the fact of not knowing how the side effects would effect my body now it is paralised but i was wondering looking at these guys who are by the looks of the quality and maturity of there muscle and size are on steroids, does any body know what kind of effects this may have on the organs when they dont work as well as they should

Just wondering if any 1 knows?
And only assume they are on them by the way they appear because of expeariance of the use i had prior to my sci.

Haven't used them, but I can only assume(YEA I KNOW) that regardless of your situation if they are abused it will have negative effects. I don't know why being a para would change the way that they effect you or your body in any way.

I think that in my case i believe my body has been through enough and i would not want to put any undue stress on it any more than i have to,not some thing i thought about prior to the sci as you dont expect it to happen i just wondered if there was a greater risk for people like our selves i dont have a problem with others doing it thats there choice and as for abuse the ammount a body builder has to take to make gains is more than the steroid was made for but still any 1 that does go stupid only has them selves to blame,regular blood tests go hand in hand with steroid usage or at least it should do and regular off cycles as well to detox your system but still back to the question about more stress on the organs in an sci person than an ab any 1 know any thing about it?

Curious????? :)
