“With athletes taking drugs all over the world, many believe that legalizing steroids will solve the problem. However, the consequences far outweigh the benefits and should therefore not be allowed at any level. This review examines whether performance-enhancing drugs should be approved in medically supervised sports and assesses the expected outcomes of such a scenario. Such a change in regulation should be strictly controlled because of the risks involved. The results of legalizing performance-enhancing drugs in competitive sports would be either useless or negative, and the undesirable aspects of doping control would not disappear. Athletes, including children and adolescents, who would like to engage in competitive sports would be forced to take additional and avoidable health risks. The “natural lottery” of athletic talent would only be partially compensated by the use of performance-enhancing drugs. It would also be complemented by another “natural lottery” of variable responses to anti-doping measures, combined with the ingenuity of doping doctors. There would be no gain in “fairness” (i.e. fairer outcomes reflecting the efforts made) for athletes as a result of the legalization of doping. Legalization would not curtail athletes` freedoms; The control effort would remain the same, if not increased.
Extremely complicated international regulations should be adopted. The “tortoise and hare” game between doped athletes and inspectors would persist because prohibited but unidentifiable practices could still bring additional benefits to the consumption of approved drugs. Public mistrust, particularly of athletes who have excelled, would remain, as it would still be possible for these athletes to rely on illegal doping practices. Doping involves exposing athletes to avoidable risks that do not have to be taken to increase the attractiveness of a sport. More importantly, the function of the sport as a model would certainly be damaged. There is no need to clarify what constitutes the “spirit of sport” and whether it can be changed. From a practical point of view, the legalization of performance-enhancing drugs in sport should not be considered, for the simple reason that it has no advantages, but many disadvantages. Not only would the playing field suddenly be level for all players, but it would also be at a higher level. Much of the observation of sport is experiencing the peak of human athletic ability, and legalizing performance-enhancing drugs would help athletes climb even higher. Steroids and doping help pitchers pitch harder, home runs go further, cyclists charge longer, and sprinters test the limits of human speed. Really, why ban the use of steroids or other performance-enhancing drugs? We should allow them all.
Not just drugs: gene therapy, DNA modification, quantity. “At the end of the day, we are beaten. We need everything available to keep us there. I think anything useful should be legal, because when you`re done, they`ll bend you and say goodbye. George pioneered the sports programs that fill the air today. He was the creator and. In addition, players undertake to dispel any suggestion that becoming a major league athlete somehow involves taking illegal performance-enhancing substances such as steroids. You don`t have to be a doctor to realize that steroids are powerful drugs that no one should fool. This is especially true for children and young adults, as medical research clearly indicates that illegal steroid use can be particularly harmful to them. Steroids are just an excuse or an easy way to get fat. People who use steroids are just lazy to work for it or earn it themselves.
I`m glad it`s banned in sports because it`s just stupid for people to use it! I`m in @miranda Malfavon – it should be illegal! Paradoxically, allowing drugs in sport could reduce economic discrimination. The cost of a hypoxic plane and tent is about $7000.29 Sending an athlete to a high-altitude training location for months can be even more expensive. This arguably puts legal methods of increasing an athlete`s PCV beyond the reach of poorer athletes. It is the illegal forms that create a level playing field in this regard. For many athletes, drug-free sports are not safe enough. If they have asthma, high blood pressure, or cardiac arrhythmias, exercise exposes their bodies to unique stresses that increase the likelihood of chronic or catastrophic damage. For example, between 1985 and 1995, at least 121 American athletes collapsed and died immediately after or during a training session or competition — most often because they had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or heart defects.34 The relatively high incidence of sudden cardiac death in young athletes led the American Heart Association to recommend that all athletes undergo cardiac screening. before they are allowed to train or compete.35 Taking these drugs could also be considered cheating. While there are many players in the sport who take performance-enhancing medications, there are still many who don`t. For those who don`t use them, they work hard for hours to become stronger for the sport they practice. Athletes who take them get the same effect in a much shorter amount of time and many of the medications they take give them more energy to train harder and longer.
They also don`t show the true abilities a player can possess. For example, if a baseball player is a weak hitter, but then takes steroids and exercises while he is taking them, he will get really big and strong and start crushing the baseball, then he shows the skills that drugs have helped him. A Tuft University study showed that steroids can increase home run production by 50%, showing that steroids are the reason that this weak hitter started crushing baseball. Steroids help people become stronger much faster than if they weren`t taking them. League officials would once again focus on the sport. Instead of worrying about who took performance-enhancing drugs and how long they have to suspend that person, they might worry about who hit a home run in the bottom 9th or who just won gold at the Olympics without worrying about what they did. to become so good. Performance enhancing drugs should not be allowed in any sport and the government should stay out of the whole fight with these drugs in sport. The problems with performance-enhancing drugs have multiplied over the years, but if the government stepped in and tried to deal with them, it would only give them another responsibility that they might not be able to take on. You can also take measures that are too extreme, such as throwing people in jail. In 2000, the competitive cost of a recombinant EPO test was approximately $130 per sample.31 This test is much more complex than a simple PCV test, which does not distinguish between exogenous and endogenous EPO.
