Ok and im sure ur not the only one who listened. As far as the Olympia u really dont think pros are using PH's do u? I mean maybe some tried something but theres no PH out there that beats any of the oral AAS, and definately none that beat the injectable so as far as the olympia goes that wont impact it at all. IDS raid was for a reason other than producing steroids it had something to do with immigration or something like that, i mean they where seizing things like muscle cars and other sketchy **** from that place. And i would bet that was done just to try and demonize the people producing these things. Plus in niether the IDS or the BB.com raid was anyone arrested. They are mearly trying to make news to get support behind banning these supplements.
Now are they going to make the laws harder? Yeah they probably will, i mean theres no point in making a law if u can just get around it (like the companies did the first time).
Could this be the end of PH/DS on the open american market? It very well could be.
Are people going to stop taking steroids now? I highly doubt it, all thats going to change is that people are going to be using the old school stuff. And to be quite honest if you are careful and plan well i dont see anything wrong with that. The old school stuff has been around for so long almost evey side and precaution is known about. The toxicity of most of the oral AAS (anadrol aside, if your going to take anadrol u should really know ur sh!t) are less harsh on the liver than things like superdrol or the old m1t, and have been used for so long they are dosed more accurately and better understood how to work them. Not to mention the injectables (and im speaking for test only i havent tried decca, tren, winn, eq or anyother injection) bypass the liver and are actually healthier, cheaper, and allow for more sustainable gains, and in some cases depending on the PH have lower sides, and even some of the sides are a positive (such as for test ur libido is thru the roof, more confidence, etc, etc).
So congrats u are correct they are having another ban. NOTHING is going to change except what type of steroid people take, and if they are afraid of needles and dont want to do it, then good maybe people will take diet and training more seriously before they hop on steroids, it will get rid of all these retarded threads about drinking while on cycle and all those other stupid things like "OMG I CANT GET AN ERECTION" Threads because people dont even know what a PCT is. It will make everyone who wants to pursue bodybuilding smarter, more efficient and more disciplined.
Im not saying im happy about the ban and i think its another ban that just shows us how far away we are from legalizing hormones for recreational use, however there will be some benefits from this, one of which will be putting more of an emphasis on diet and training and i think most people will think a lot more about getting to their genetic potential before they have to pin.
