Paper Summary:

This paper first takes a brief look at how drugs are used all over the world and then focuses specifically on the use of steroids in the world of sports. The paper explains what anabolic steroids are, gives a brief history of steroid use, and describes the negative side effects.

From the Paper:

"Steroids have been a very common form of drugs used in sports today despite the fact that athletes are regularly tested for doping and are immediately expelled from events if they test positive. The question that arises is why would athletes use steroids when such tactics simply kill the whole spirit of competition. To compete means to show you are more skillful and better trained for a certain sport, however with steroids this purpose of competition is destroyed because the winner has won not due to his own ability but because of certain performance enhancing drugs."
