These are not the type of steroids athletes sometimes abuse, and at recommended doses, do not get absorbed into the body enough to cause any significant side effects.
Zhang Xian Qian,
Ex-Olympic Swimmer

Anabolic steroids facilitate the growth of skeletal muscle, which led to use of the compounds first by bodybuilders and weightlifters and then by athletes in other sports.
Athletes who have used anabolic steroids report a significant increases in lean muscle mass, strength and endurance, but no studies have shown that these drugs enhance performance.
Anabolic steroids are banned in most sports, any athlete found using them is usually suspended for long periods and stripped of any titles they may have gained whilst they were using steroids.
Todd Porter,
Gym Attendent

However, these steroids are not the same as those that are sometimes abused by athletes or as the drugs than can produce side effects in people who need to take steroid tablets for years at a time.
These are not the type of steroids some athletes abuse, but are rather related to steroids produced by your body every day.
Often times when athletes have been using steroids and have experienced huge gains, they expect to keep the gains after they come off of their cycle.
