STEROID USE
Steroid use has been known to have several side effects carried with them. Some side effects contributed to steroid use are heart disease, liver cancer, stroke, acne, baldness, decreased spem count, gyneocomastia, and dependence. Steroid use can also make a person increasingly angry and very hot headed. People who use this drug coin the phrase "Its my body!" The problem with this is that it may be their body but the effects that these drugs can have on a person will not only effect the user but also their family and friends.
Greg Valentino was an avid steroid user who eventually came to have the largest bicepts ever. Valentino started bodybuilding at the age of nineteen. Starting of he worked and trained as hard as he could. Down the road he was introduced to a substance called synthol. Valentino had already been taking anabolic steroids for growth but was not satiafied. Synthol is an oil substance that is injected into the muscle where it coats the muscle fibers and when the muscle contracts the oil hardens which increases the size of the muscle. Injecting a foreign subsatnce straight into the body it is very dangerous, which Valentino found out.
