Muscular Development Online Magazine - IFBB Enforces Drug Policy!

The IFBB has always maintained that it has a random drug testing policy in place that all active athletes are subject to. Until now, it was always thought that this rule was just some phantom policy that was placed "on the Books" to look good for outside parties. All that changed today when I was contacted by an IFBB athlete in good standing who was sent a registered letter that informed this person that they were selected for a random drug test. As a result of this selection, they had 72 hours to report to a designated testing facility where they were required to submit a urine sample for analysis. The letter also explained that a failed drug test would result in suspension from the IFBB for a designated period of time. Furthermore, all test results, whether positive or negative, are being kept private; apparently to prevent embarrassment and/or loss of future potential income. Failure to provide urine samples within the designated 72-hour period is being considered a failed test.

I was reading this over at Muscular Development. I'm sure it is a result from the public media, but out of all the sports out there, pro-bodybuilding obviously uses steroids.

Obvious to you and I. I bet if you surveyed 100 random people over half would say "I dont know" or "probably not".

There are guys that are obviously using at my gym and the vast majority of people think they are 100% natural and just take a lot of "supplements" its sad.

Yea there's a guy who, during his bench workouts, goes 315+ for all sets with the biggest moon pie face ever...then every 12-15 weeks it goes away :think: then comes back. He must just cycle sodium. The guy is about 6'0"-6'2" and goes well over 250lbs while maintaining a rather lean physique i'd say between 12-14%BF at about 22years old.

I could see how people would think that.

Actually my brother picked up a fitness magazine this past weekend that had an IFBB pro on the cover and said to me, "Does he do steroids ? He looks like he might."





......:rofl:

haha yea or girls that I talk with see me looking at muscular development and say "I think he may be on steroids but IDK he works or real hard and takes a lot of stuff" Or just the "fitness" guy in muscle and fitness girls would never think they use anything hormonal.

Fact is i'd guess close to 80% of the people in fitness magizene do or have used some sort of AAS/hGH

Or even MMA thats where I hear a lot of arguements of those guys being clean, O i guess it is humanly possible to be 5'10" 225lbs at 7% bodyfat and maintain that without any hormonal aid. No man in UFC would use :gasp:

no one ever said it was for anabolics....they know better. Why do you think it just says drugs? haha if anything its for all the crazy painkillers, mental, addictive things, etc etc....
Also, it is all talk. They wont monitor a pro, i wouldt be suprised if the IFBB themselves just asks them to come in and sit there for a few minutes, release them with the "ok clean"
It is supposed to be random and many talk is the Weider gang wont get touched....so it may lessen the competition.

IFBB and bodybuiolding has become ridiculous as of recent with all this garbage talk. The olympics doesnt help much either....watch how fats it clears at least a month+ after the olympics.

Damn, my friend was telling me about this in the gym and I didn't believe him. I still don't believe they will be doing any actual testing for steroids. 100% of those selected for testing will be positive for steroids.

Yeah a lot of those people in the ads, fitness magazines, competitors, etc are on something, AAS, HGH, Clen, some kind of perscription antagonist that makes them focus.....


Athletes are gifted, however they are not super-human, and these drugs offer an edge that is too good to be ignored.

Even with as much testing as they do for the Tour De France, I bet many of those cyclist are drugged up as well.


Not to sound shallow, but there is no reason NOT to take drugs, esp when serious cash is on the line.


If you are a lousy athlete, then drugs will give you an edge and maybe make you a little better.



If you are an exceptionally talented athlete, then drugs will allow you to dominate your sport and be the best.


There is no such thing as being 'too good' at anything. I've never heard anyone say that they are sick of being too damn good.


If I were a professional athlete and did the sport as a living, I'd take so many drugs and be drugged out of my mind that I wouldn't even know my name.

I agree with Brolic. Nothing is going to change. The policy was in place before and still is. There are ways around tests which all pros know. Plus like the article mentioned, the tests are kept private, so if someone fails, the IFBB can just ignore it, treat it as if the person passed, and continue along as it always has.

I disagree. The majority of people in my gym feel that everyone bigger than them is juicing. The general public doesn't understand the idea of proper nutrition and training.

why would a top pro sell roids..??
To make money. I think it was several years ago when he got caught selling gear. The more recent happenings I believe are more of him being linked to suppliers, labs, and dealers, etc.

They can take random drug test from 20 guys and only test 2 or 3 and say they tested 20 of the top guys for the media. As for which substances they are testing for I would be interested to find out. My guess is that they will be testing for things like pot, opiates, and other narcotics so they can say they did a "drug test"
