No offence taken 1981Neil, I differ in opinion with you and feel that while almost all who take part in competitive bodybuilding are using steroids or have done, you can rest assured that some never have and never will.

Go ahead and use steroids if you wish, but to promote the idea that you must use steroids is morally wrong.

Yes, to win Mr.Olympia you must use steroids to compete with the other steroid users, which is why I suggested it be renamed Mr.Steroid

Calling them cheats is NOT wrong, it's very accurate, what would an athelete caught using steroids be called?

If you wish to emulate and have druggies as idols so be it, it would be good if they were stripped of every title they won since starting to take steroids (including Schwarzenegger) because frankly once they start using steroids they don't deserve them and should be outcasted IMHO, I'm not the only one to think like this either...

Protein shakes are not in the same league as drugs, not even remotely.

I can deal with it, pity and disgust go a long way.
