Does this rise coincide with the increased popularity of Crossfit, or is it the influence of the look of the pretty boys of the likes of Geordie Shore, TOWIE etc, or is it the strive for the Mens Health look??? With the efforts of WADA, I doubt it is likely to be down to competitive sportsmen/women

I'd say in most hardcore gyms, there will be more people using peds than people not.

Its the way things are nowadays. Everybody wants the look and they want it now. The more people that use them, the more normal they seem to the up and coming generations. It will only get worse IMO

It is a rise in steroid users realising that they don't have to pay for needles.

Rubbish!

It is what the media has done to society making it appear that the social norm it to have a six pack and decent size guns. THAT is what turns average people to using gear, just like it's the reason why young girls starve themselves to try and attain an unattainable waif life body

Better look back where and when everything has started . Some people made millions and Arnie became the face of the muscle fashion . Good marketing .

so what were the judges, judging before arnie competed? the era of when he was around mdiea was taking off globally so the combination of the two probably contributed to the attatudes in media circles of what people should asscertain to in there opinion.
