Comments Thread For: Krzysztof Glowacki Hit With Four-Year Ban By UKAD Over Failed Test in Riakporhe Fight

How is it irrelevant? It’s literally illegal to use steroids. Just because you compete in bodybuilding doesn’t make it suddenly legal.

It is literally totally irrelevant.

No PEDs are banned, illegal or prohibited to use in pro body building.

That's why there is pro body building, and "natural" body building (Where PED's are banned, illegal and prohibited)

I genuinely can't explain that in a more clear way. I can't help you any more than that.

I already explained how the differences between VADA and USADA could apply to Ngannou and to 24/7/365 testing. He visits Africa regularly.

Oh really? Is that a fact? How regularly does he visit Africa a year?

Are you saying USADA isn't a legitimate testing procedure?

And are you saying that fight by fight VADA testing is more sufficient than 24/7, 365 USADA testing?

Are steroids illegal in the UK without a prescription? Did you ever use steroids in your bodybuilding competitions? If so you would be doing something illegal which would make you a PED cheat. Right?

My understanding is that they are illegal to supply without a prescription, or manufacture without the appropriate license, but it is not illegal to the them.

I ain’t no professional on peds or anything t that matter but 4 years seems like really harsh
Knowing that not one is clean in this sport or that’s what I’m lead to believe , suspending the guy that long is crazy
Like you said , didn’t big Baby get two year suspension ?
Now that’s laughable right there

Hell, Miller was so juiced the last time that he got caught, you could get a contact dose from shaking his hand!

From the US Department of Justice website:

“Yes, it is illegal to use steroids without a valid prescription or to distribute them. Steroids are Schedule III substances under the Controlled Substances Act. Schedule III drugs, which have a legitimate medical function, may lead to moderate to low physical dependence or high psychological dependence.”

https://www.justice.gov/archive/ndic...l%20dependence.

Being a bodybuilder or not doesn’t matter.

Now, do bodybuilding organizations seriously test for steroids and does law enforcement make it a priority to go after bodybuilders? It doesn’t look like it.

Well, stick a fork in Glowacki, 'cause his career is done! To get popped AND lose, damn!

I think he's talking about the UK, where steroid use is not illegal.

Steroids are absolutely banned in every bodybuilding federation including the IFBB. The hypocrisy is that they just don’t test for them (https://ifbb.com/wp-content/uploads/...uide-2021B.pdf). They are also illegal to sell or distribute without a prescription but there are many ways around that. Law enforcement rarely focuses on that class of prohibited substances. The****utic use exemptions are easy to get and Dr’s become legalized dealers.

If that’s the case then it’s a different situation over there.

But I’ve seen IronDanHamza offering to “advise” several posters with his expertise. If they live in the USA hopefully they will do their due diligence and not just go running to buy whatever he suggests.

[Kreklo]

Any foreign affiliate of the IFBB and that includes the UKBBF is supposed to not allow use. It may be legal for personal use if obtained correctly, but it is still technically not allowed for competition in bodybuilding.

define "banned", because the pro body building circuit clearly does not grasp the meaning.
