Is Anabolic Steroid use in Poland as popular among the youth as in the States? Some of the football hooligans sure look like they take them

Ive never used a public gym in Poland but in the UK most of the Polish guys were on and sold steroids. I'd say its a little more common here than the UK, most probably a lot cheaper too.

The only one worth buying is creatine IMO, all the rest are not much better than baby formula. You just cant beat the right foods.

Absolutely as i said above you cant beat the correct foods, it all depends on what youre trying to achieve then the diet should coincide with that. If muscle building is your aim then you need to consume lots of protein. I would recommend protein shakes as a supplement for those that cant afford the meat.

I have only bought one tin of protein shake in my life.

I have tried protein shakes for about 4 months and it's just a waste of money i bought the most expensive ones, and i doubt there was any protein in them just calories. There's nothing better than real food, real food's got natural protein and nutrients that haven't even been discovered yet. As for steroids you can really damage your body permanently, it will all look good when one is still young but in later years it will all come out.

Rubbish its all about moderation, Schwarzenegger was on steroids and large doses at that for 7 years, probably more. Lou Ferigno (aka The Hulk) still looks pretty good too, thats dudes been injecting and popping pills for decades.

The main problem is the heart, its a muscle and therefore grows with the rest of the body, stop taking the steroids the heart reduces in size and efficiency then the pressure on the heart is massive.

All depends on the cut, Fillets around £50 a KG in the UK here its £15, Sirloin's next followed by Rump - thats it for steak cuts, ooh i almost forgot and rib eye. All the other beef cuts, top side, silver side etc.. (ideal for roasting) fairly cheap. Pork on the whole is cheaper though.

Wroclaw Boy: The only one worth buying is creatine IMO Does it actually work? i work out but I'd like better definition. Supposedly it adds lean muscle and repairs the muscle cells faster, so you're not sore the next day and can continue to work out. But is that true? or it just give you a false sense of well being and hurts you by not getting enough rest to heal properly?

I think Steroids are way too expensive for the average Polish person.

Maybe a few Polish athletes take Steroids.

But, I doubt many Polish hooligans take Steroids.

Even in the U.S it is expensive. I heard it can be up to 2,000 for a 1 month cycle in the U.S

In Poland that is like 1/5th of a Year salary. How can they spend that?

I have heard even people who lift weights in Germany complain that they can't buy simple Whey Protein supplements because it is way too expensive.

If Germans are not buying Whey Protein because it is too expensive? Then I highly doubt many Polish Hooligans are taking Steroids.

I think it is just in the Polish blood to get very big.

The Hooligans from Siarka Tarnobrzeg are extremely muscular. My family comes from Tarnobrzeg I am am extremely muscular & I never have taken steroids. My dad was muscular at my age & he never even lifted weights. My Irish/Italian friend took steroids & lifted weights for about 10 years now.
My dad at that same age was more muscular than him without ever lifting a weight.

I think it is just genetic

The Siarka Tarnobrzeg Hooligans are huge & I am even more huge HAHA Maybe a few in Warsaw or Krakow might use Steroids. But, I find it hard to believe Tarnobrzeg a small area in South Eastern Poland would have much steroid use.

It is possible with the right genetics. Some people have a lack of myostatin & that makes them super muscular.

Of course High Testosterone can build alot of muscles.

Alot of Poles are naturally stocky, muscular & robust.

Creatine doesn't do too much. It helps but nothing like Steroids. But, Even on Steroids you still have to work out & use your muscles.

Steroids is no miracle worker. I have seen some very scrawny people who have taken steroids.

True Mesomorph body types are naturally built, and easily build muscle.

PennBoy Endomorphs build muscle easier. It is just harder for them to become cut. Mesomorphs build muscle & stay cut pretty well. Ectomorphs have trouble gaining anything.
