Don’t use steroids if you don’t need them: Lee Priest
The bodybuilding veteran had confessed that PEDs are common in every athletic industry. However, the winner of Iron Man Pro also pointed out that other sports do not mention the frequency of steroid use. “You won’t go on an NFL page where they’re discussing steroids… This linebacker is so big because he’s eating 10,000 calories doing a bit of deca,” Priest said.
He pointed out that in other sports industries athletes from different sports have their gold medals taken away if they are found guilty of taking steroids after investigation. However, the priest also said that bodybuilding is the only industry where the use of steroids is freely discussed. However, he also revealed the fact that educating bodybuilders on bulking up is extremely important. So, he said, “It’s like these people think the only thing missing, that’s stopping them from being great are drugs.”
