Anyone bothered to ask why they are scheduled at all?
We spend all of this time talking about elite competitive and, frequently, professional athletes using them, WHY???
Next thing you know, they're going to "schedule" websites...
WHY?
I suppose the side effects could be managed, but do you think your average gorilla juicehead with "bigorexia" is going to be smart about controlling when and how much he takes? Fuck no.
That is, I suppose, why they're illegal; they have costly side effects and cause a psychological dependency. I don't agree with banning them, but I can't say I approve of the way they're used by bodybuilders and competitors.
Obesity, Insulin-Resistance, Impotency, Diabetes, Cardiac, Auto-Immune...the list goes on!
This is not the way to approach this subject. Not all hormones act on the same receptors, not all hormones are synthetic and not all hormones aromatase.
And perhaps those lunk alarm videos are to protest a series of ads in which powerlifters and bodybuilders are portrayed as narcissistic morons. Having lifted in one of the most serious gyms in London for both groups, I can say this is most certainly not an accurate depiction.
Yeah, and those aren't the people in the videos.
Even if every single lunk alarm video was as you described, it wouldn't be sufficient to paint a picture of either the bodybuilding or the strength athletics community.
I missed the part where I tried to do that. Help me out?
The videos I'm talking about are the ones where someone sets off the lunk alarm and is politely asked to take a chill pill, and responds by trying to tear the building off of its foundation.
I thought it was well known that sharp breathing can increase strength for a short amount of time. Besides, sometimes when you're doing something really exhausting, you'll grunt involuntarily...
It's aimed squarely at the cardio and Zumba crowd who feel intimidated by people putting up significant weight.
