In this video I'm discussing the effects of steroids: good and bad. About me: I'm a Canadian natural pro bodybuilder and internationally-qualified powerlifter with a BSc in biochemistry/chemistry and a passion for science. I've been training for 15 years drug-free. I'm 5'5 and fluctuate between 160 lbs (72kg) (lean) and 180 lbs (81kg) (bulked). UTL COMMENT:- It's the weekend let's take a (small) break from full-time politics! Interesting video and ALOT of truths about steroids. I have never done it. Best to do everything naturally. Plus - I would NEVER TRUST anything injectable anyway. Even Pfizer makes growth hormones!!! In my mid-50's and I have recommenced my journey into physical fitness....unvaxxed and free. But I look and feel 40. People guess me at that. So sometimes you may see the odd health related video on this channel. Health is super important to be prepared for what's coming.... Cheers.
