SETS & REPS: ON THE STEROID ISSUE

Q. I really enjoy the editorials about steroids. Everybody who enters the Arnold Classic bodybuilding physique event breaks the law if they are using steroids. Why Arnold puts his name on this event and endorses it, is beyond me. Maybe Marty is 100% right and it’s just for money, yet Arnold does not need money that way. By the way, have you ever wondered why Congress has never investigated professional bodybuilding and drug use?

A. Who is to say how much money anybody needs? Criminally, if not functionally from a drug test, no one is guilty of using steroids until a court of law proves so. They are legal with a medical prescription, but it has to be for an approved medical purpose such as a low blood cell anemia. (In order to be a better bodybuilder probably does not apply). But, any so-called guilt towards Arnold and any 'association' is just name calling. Congress is not interested in small sports and activities that are not unionized, not on television, or in major newspapers. You can't order steroids from a legitimate entity such as the New York Times, but anyone can get them on the internet which is still 50% drug and porn sites. Unlike baseball, nobody is pressuring Congress about pro physique competition. My thesis that no one cares about bodybuilding, appears to be valid.
