I just watched “Bigger, Stronger, Faster” on the weekend and while being initially skeptical as to the balance of reporting, I was surprised by its fairly objective view on steroid abuse. The most interesting focus of the doco is when the Christopher Bell attempts to draw the line between performance enhancing drugs and prescription / legal drugs. This provides and fascinating comparison and shows the line is more blurred than you may first realize.
This doco is not directly about my favorite topic, ie fitness strength training, or elite fitness, but it does explore some of the reasons why people capitulate and turn to performance enhancing drugs for greater muscular gains. As you may have guessed from my background and my Super Smash’r Fitness Program, I’m anti drugs of any kind as I believe you can get all the fat loss and muscle gains if you are committed to following a proven training formula. Fitness Strength Training is such a formula.
