Should I take steroids for my P.E. class?

Post Reply New Topic

NO! Steroids would f**k your body up at your age. I have never taken steroids, but I don't see them as bad, as people make them out to be as long as they are used properly. When men get older their testosterone gets lower. THat being said if you are 15 you do not want to take steroids. You are way too young and neither me, nor you know how to use them. What you want to do is eat plently of protein and fat and lift weight or some other physical exercise if you want to be strong or fit, depending on your goals. At 15 your testosterone should be very high anyway, if your going through puberty.

What the what?!?!?! THose who fail at PE fail at life? What bonehead jock told you that? I virtually send them a punch in their shriveled, caper like testicles.
I failed gym in grade 9 and now a successful nurse. Gym doesn't mean crap. Steroids won't help you anyway, your problem is the social aspect. Reading body language in sports, and learning rules. And they are right, it's participation.
As an out, my aspie lil brother just did weights instead.

I really wish I could have done weights instead, I was always unusually strong for my size. But I was a girl, they taught me I shouldn't even be using my upper body strength too much, let alone lift weights.

If you ain't strong enough to do well in PE class, what makes you think you can be strong enough to come face-to-face with a drug dealer (when you got Asperger's as well)?

Wow, everyone's got good points. I work with teenagers - and vividly remember being one - and being a godlike, faultless being among students is laughable. Nothing can make you into that. And PE? C'mon, not much stock is put into it. Just talk to your teacher, or even have your parents do it. Teachers, weather it seems like it or not, have a heart.

I believe in Phy. Ed., most of your grade should come from participation. I think grading based on skill is totally unfair.

As for steroids, they really f*** up your body. Yes, they may make your muscles bigger, but they don't make you more flexible, coordinated, or have more cardiovascular endurance. They can also make your penis shrink, make you have bad acne, f*** up your liver, all sorts of nasty things. You're better off not taking them.

Ok, first of all, you're only 15. If you take steroids now, then it will SERIOUSLY mess up your hormones. If you were maybe 25 years old and were trying to become a professional bodybuilder then that would be a different story. But you're only 15 dude... They don't just immediately put 50lbs of muscle on your body as soon as you take them. And in no way will steroids make you better at sports or stronger overnight. Steroids are made to increase the speed you build muscle. They basically alter your hormones making it easier and faster at building muscle by lifting weights. They're pretty much useless if you're not lifting weights. But it's your choice, if you don't mind injecting needles in your muscles and don't care about your health, then go for it. I'm sure you'll regret it later.

I would not recommend it. Even if they do make you feel stronger physically (for a short time, that is), they may have negative psychological effects.

Wow, no no no no no. Steroids have way too many health risks to be worth it even when you use them for something like professional sports.

Also, those who fail at P.E. fail at life? When I applied to Georgia Tech, I didn't see anywhere on the application that said "How many pushups did you do that one day in gym freshman year?" or "Did your serves ever go over the net in volleyball?" Sure, it may be embarrassing, but put it in perspective: in around three months, you'll be done with this class. Is that worth anger issues, shrunken testicles, and possibly even manboobs? If you think gym is bad now, imagine how much worse it would be doing all this and being made fun of for your boobs.
