Hi Marie.

But that's because, in my mind, almost every pro is using steroids.
We can't deny a lot of them use stero, can we?

No, we can't deny that. The pictures of this woman look much more like fitness model quality and not bodybuilder. I didn't look at all her pictures however so I might have missed what you are talking about. I agree she looks really good, but it would NEVER cross my mind she uses any steroids.

I do understand the mindset of women who decide to use them. For women it takes very little to make a big difference and they can take it by mouth, unlike men who, I believe have to inject it. I'm repeating what I've read, so I hope no one wants to take issue with this.

At one point, I don't see why some pros would work sooo hard to stay natural whereas their competitors take winnie or whatever stuff and get so much faster and greater results...

There was a show running on the TLC called "Supersize She." It was a documentary about a female bodybuilder from England who admittedly used steroids. I think they compete in competitions with other users. Natural bodybuilders compete in Natural competitions and are tested.

Galatia, I'm happy you're here, simple question :
have you ever been tempted to use stero? ( don't know if we can talk about this here !! sorry if not I'll stop)
|
Thank-you. No I've never been tempted to use steroids. I know me too well. I could never stop once I started. I'd never be happy with what I could achieve without them once I started using. And I'm scared to death of it. I'm not that knowledgeable about them, but for me it would be an addiction.....and I don't want to be addicted to ANYTHING! I did have a work-out partner once who kept trying to talk me into it, but I never once considered it. It's a very simple decision for me, NO.

and another question that will probably interest athena too : which fat burner is the best for women (legal stuff lol).
|
The only thing I've ever heard was worth it's salt is Ephedra/Ephedrine, usually used with aspirin and caffeine. It's in Primatene, but I think it legal again now, so it'll probably go back to being in supplements meant for weight loss. I can't use that either. I tried but it gave me really weird headaches, that made me think I was going to have a stroke. So now I've resolved myself to the fact that I will lose my body fat through diet and exercise.
