Would the supplement industry completely collapse?
or would popular bodybuilding sites all start selling gear with all their other stuff?
Would any kid pay $80 for a supplement if he could get testosterone for much less?
-
if they get away with charging 80 bones for shit they are going to charge a lot more for something that works
i imagine all the supplement companys woudl just start putting stuff that works in thier boxes and just jack up the price
-
if they didnt have side effects, then yea.
-
Many people would never use gear even if it was legal because they could not pin themselves.
-
Didn't Know they were Illegal Ooooooooooooooops could be I read somewhere on this site that some old IFBB Pro come Rep says Nobody cares.Tell that to the DEA.

Competition brings prices down.

I remember when I was 16 my uncle told me all I needed supplement-wise was some protein,amino acids and a sold work ethic and the muscles would come ....I didn't listen and I wasted 100's of dollars on worthless crap over the years. (except protein powder, of course).
I was lucky in that regard, having a older responsible male to influence me in the right way. Unfortunately you got thousands of clueless teenagers that would shove a needle in their backside if they knew that their arms would grow a few inches within weeks....and they could very well fuck their lives up in the process, no doubt about it.

seriously?

it could, i am very uneducated on the matter but how many labs are there that would mass produce and sell and be approved for sale in north America. i for real don't have a clue as to how many pharmaceutical company's there are the would be allowed to sell. i imagine its like most things, a handfull of rich guys pulling the strings on 6 or 8 major company's....it would actually be interesting to know...although this is getbig so i imagine someone will post a link on how lizard people control the whole pharmaceutical racket
-
seriously?
imo, yes, although it is not an issue for me.
-
Alot of jacked dudes. Then what will be the point when everyone is huge
-
seriously?
Of course, people are fucking pussies nowadays. I've had so many people ask me if they can just take steroid pills and avoid pinning all together. I know tons of guy's who've been juicing for years and still get friends and girlfriends pin them every other day because they're too pussy.
-
Switznegger, You add nothing to an intelligent conversation. Why don't you just sit back and listen for a while!
-
Nice thread idea. I think the supp industry would disappear. People would finally have access to something legal that works.
-
then supplements might actually work? :o
-
personally, i think with their supply chain, forum membership, aaccess to signed athletes, and loyal buyers, they'd just start selling gear. They already have the infrastructure in place.
Granted, almost nobody would still buy the fancy designer supplements they buy today. Protein would still sell, but aside from that? I dunno...

The supplement industry would not disappear imo, steroids are drugs and drugs do have side effects and many people would still not use them if they were legal.

Ha! That's funny.
-
you would still have some that were cautious because they were just illegal.
and then you would have guys scared to pin themselves eating dinnabol in arnoldeque proportions!
i also imagine supp companies would just run their version of it and begin to water it down.
-
I'd stick to training "won hundra purcen nachural". Roids being illegal is just one of the reasons I don't care for them. To me, using drugs is like cheating. That body you built on them, is just an illusion....would you cheat your way through College? If you didn't work for it, is it really worth anything?
I have limits, and I'm okay with that. Some people are bigger and stronger (drugs or not), some are smarter. We all have something...
Most Steroid users I've known were weak (mentally and sometimes physically). They used cause they didn't have the work ethic, or they just couldn't hack it. So they took the shortcut.
If nothing else, I get the satisfaction of knowing that at my gym, I outwork most of the users there. I'm nothing special, but I bust my ass. Sadly, these guys have no heart. I earned everything I have......whatever that may be.
I'm trying to lead by example....how can I (a grown man) tell my kids not to do this or that (drug wise) if I used? And for vanity's sake of all things?
-
I don't believe the sup companies would go under. As long as there is advertising and naive people....they will prevail (to some degree).
-
They would come up with supplements that would work. (mixing it with steroid powder for instance)

True,some people are afraid to use creatine even

Under a good sports doctor's direction, steroid sides can be controlled.

They would be manufactured by pharmaceutical companies, sold in licensed pharmacies.
You would need a prescription...

Goodrum would still look like shit.

Doctors,here anyway,know fuck all about steroids
-
You need to define the question "If steroids were made legal tomorrow..." better.
-
I would inject testosterone for life if it were legal.
-
"If steroids were made legal tomorrow" I wouldn't use them.
-
there are many countrys that steroids are legal in that sells as much supplements just like any other country.
UK for example.

The one I went to did, in detail...He would dose athletes and bodybuilders. His waiting room was something to see.

The price of gear would go through the roof supply and demand problem would take place and most people wouldnt be able to afford it
-
Steroids are legal.
They mean over the counter, without a doctor's supervision or control....
Actually, even a doctor with the law set up the way it is cannot prescribe steroids for the purpose of bodybuilding...
-
If AAS were no longer a controlled substance and legalized across the board, so many morons would ruin such a great thing. Some people wouldn't use any moderation or follow instruction and cause major damage to their bodies (i.e. 'hey ephedra works, lets take over 100mg a day!'). The line, "more is better" would be in effect.
And how long would it take for a couple of geeks that overdo AAS to go to jail for beating or killing their girlfriends and then blame it on AAS. The media would run with it and AAS would be illegal all over again.

my doctor is going to put me on test to help control my diabetes. Apparently it improves insulin uptake and regualtes blood sugar. I would rather take the shot once or twice a week or even eod instead of some retarded topical test gel or patch.

As long as you can still lift 2000lb stones for 10 miles, then it's all good. 8)

Prediction: In 2 months we're going to be seeing some updated Keggy pics where he's a swole MFer.

I'll bet on a 225 X 112 deadlift video before we see that feat.

Tell him what you want then. Maybe bring up that gels and patches can rub off on other people, like on your woman in bed. Or mention absorbtion irregularity and you'd prefer a proven dosing system. Btw, sustanon stings. Ask for enanthate (used) or cypionate if that's the US alternative (haven't used).
I would inquire about short and long term HPTA impact if I were you, including sterility issues.

Stark would have a heart attack.
