Some amateur and professional athletes take anabolic steroids to help them "bulk up" or build strength. The health risks of this practices are extensively documented. Apart from health considerations, how do you feel about the use of chemicals to enhance athletic performance? Is an athlete who takes anabolic steroids cheating, or is such use part of the preparation that is required to succeed in competition?

Personally, yes I feel that taking steroids is cheating. Its giving you an "unnatural" edge. An athlete that takes steroids will develop more muscle mass than the athlete that doesn't. Also steroids increase aggression which could definitely edge out the "clean" athlete. It's also really unhealthy and can lead to a shorter life. A true athlete will work for their strength and be the natural human they are rather that an "enhanced" animal. This question is all about opinion so its depends on what you think, this is just my opinion.

Hope this helps!
