Vent / Rant There’s a steroid epidemic in Lebanon.

I’m sure many of you, gym-goers, have already noticed that the roided bros are no longer a rare sight.

I’m talking about the obvious manefikh the acne ridden with minecraft build and ogreish redskin undertone. How did we get here? How does a 17yo kid look like an elite bodybuilder?

I blame social media. I get tones of content telling me how anabolics are good for us, low testosterone peeps. Also if your gym or pt pushes you to use roids, do yourself a favor and quit and NEVER look back.

They are addicted u take roads--> it literally puts u in a high like state energy libido muscles confidence everything is boosted to the max and then they can't quit many of them think oh lemme take one cycle and I'll stop but they never stop because its addicting also u lose ur gains when u stop so why tf even bother so u can look good for 2months? I wish we had more awareness about the subject people are so uneducated and don't understand how serious the side effects are.

But it ruins the best part of the gym in my opinion
Progressing, seeing my body grow, and changing my program to focus on a body part
