Body Building Steroids have been used in bodybuilding since the early 50's and since then have been the common denominator between all the massive guys you see in the magazines and on stage. Big name bodybuilders like Arnold have even admitted to using them, not that it wasn't obvious already. It is with an old pro wrestler named Rick Drason who used to work out with Arnold and some other big name bodybuilders. It isn't uncommon for a pro bodybuilder to use steroids year round and even at doses of over 1000 mgs of testosterone weekly. Most of them, even at this dosage, experience very few side effects. Bodybuilding is not the only professional sport where steroids are being used consistently. Swimmers, Rugby players, Basketball players and especially pro Football players are often using steroids. Football great Lyle Alzado, who publicly blamed his cancer on steroids and growth hormone, claimed that 90+% were using while he was in the game. While this number may seem a little extreme, it is certainly within the realm of reality.
