America concerned about obesity problem, now concerned about teens getting "buff"?

[ry ry]

http://vitals.nbcnews.com/_news/2012...build-muscles#

So what is it going to be? First America was concerned about childhood and teen obesity, and now we are concerned that more teens are working out and trying to get fit?

Read the comments, some may rustle your jimmies...

Here is an excerpt though:

As for Creatine and other forms of powder based steroids or testosterone additive, these could change a persons rage and thought process if not taken in a very controlled environment.

Creatine...not even once.

My guess is uninformed.

I like how they group amino acids with growth hormone.

I edited my post because I misread it.

But 1 in 20 teens taking steroids? I don't buy it.

1 in 20 teens taking something they think is a steroid? I could see that. Guy gets on NO-XPLODE and thinks he's on steroids.

Or maybe:



5% of girls surveyed answered (e) to that question.

On a cold Friday afternoon, I had come home from school. I had been thinking of the gym all day. I was hungry, didn't have any lunch. In fact, I didn't eat because I spent the money. For the past month I was saving up for something. Something special which I bought at GNC. I was surprised they didn't ask for ID; I was pretty sure the cashier noticed how nervous I was. Anyways, my mom asked my how my day was when I got home, but I ignored her. I have more important things to do. I run to the bathroom and unpack my bag. In my school bag is a white plastic bag from GNC. I open the bag, first removing the receipt and flushing it down the toilet to get rid of the evidence. My heart was racing now. I unpack the creatine monster from the bag.

I wonder what people will be asking me when they see that I will be 50lbs heavier. Should I say I was just eating a lot? I remove the label from the tub and tear it into a thousand small pieces. I flush that down the toilet, too. It is time now. I run up to my room when my mom ask me what I am holding. I panic, sweat drips down my forehead and my teeth chatter. "Mom, it's just for a school project". "What project?" "I don't know mom I just started it!". A tear runs down my cheek. I run upstairs and open the creatine, scooping upservings into a clear water bottle. What have I gotten myself into? I fill it with water and drink it. There is no turning back now. The creatine monster is inside me now, it will control me. What should I do if I die? I cant let my family know about this.

I open the creatine tub and throw it all out the window; a white cloud of mysterious dust sparkles into the wind so graciously. I feel the substance taking control of me; I am now the monster. I walk downstairs, its time to work out; time to get big. Now I worry, I don't want to get too big; people will think I use steroids. I do use steroids. No I don't. Creatine. All I see is the weights now, I am almost downstairs when I hear "Do you want a cookie I just baked". I know I do not have time for this **** now. "No mom I do not want a cookie" I walk in the basement and drop to my knees before the weights, tears running down my cheeks. I turn to the right and look at myself in the mirror. Oh god, what have I done?

This might be the dumbest fuking thing I've ever read in my life.

What the fukk do you expect?


The amount of desirable women is declining. Obesity is to thank for this.

What happens with a shrinking population of desirable women, and in increasing population of men?

They compete harder to get action.


I see this in my college gym all the time. I'm a senior now in college. With each passing year, the gender ratio gets skewed more and more. Now, women are getting pushed further and further into the corners of the gym - basically only staying on the cardio machines, or in the corners on the stretching/abs mats. A few women will hit the vagina machine or the prone leg curl machine, but most of them get creeped out by all the guys checking them out.

Most sororstitutes now prefer to opt out of going to our FREE gym (loaded with all the machines and equipment you need to get fit), and end up paying for gym membership at nearby Equinox gym. This avoids all the attention they get from beta men. But, its less motivating to go to a gym off campus so more girls now just dont work out at all. Paying for off campus gym membership quickly becomes an exercise in futility. They end up working out less overall.

In my house on campus, alot of the girls eat JUST AS OFTEN as I do while on a bulk. It's disgusting. I'm go to our open kitchen almost every 2-3 hours to eat more food and I see the same girls there over and over again. They already get attention from men, so they don't care how the food affects their figure. And I don't even need to mention how unhealthy the food is they choose.

The problem with CBS, ABC, FOX, CNN, etc., who NOTICE these changes in the young population is that they never ask the question "Why" ? It goes unstated that these articles are also misattributing supplements - you can't equate CREATINE with sterons, nor can you equate PROTEIN POWDER with sterons. But can we blame the laypress? They are broscientists, and they're just reporting on a trend they notice.

At the end of the day, boys are trying to attract girls, and girls are trying to attract alpha males. With less sexually marketable girls around, more boys are trying to fit the alpha ideal in any way they can.

These phucktards grouping creatine with AAS. I bet these are the same dumbàsses, that think you can turn fat into muscle.

[DrZeusss]

powder based steroids.....












































































brb doing lines of deca

[KnockoutXX]

Another example of how these articles neglect to answer "WHY?"

“We definitely don’t want to be taken as trying to send the message that exercise or eating in a certain way is bad,” Eisenberg says. “There are many good things that go along with those behaviors, such as general fitness and health. We’re concerned that when achieving a certain physical appearance is the driving force, those good behaviors might give way to less healthy ones in the future.”

So WHY, NBC, are teenage boys now trying to reach certain physical appearances in droves? Again, in the end of the day, boys want to attract girls.

with less desirable women, more men try to reach the most aesthetic physiques they can.

AWARE me on where i can get powder based steroids. FUKKING RETARDS SHOULD NOT BE AUTHORS.

YES MAD

Those numbers concern Dana Rofey, an assistant professor of pediatrics in the Division of Weight Management and Wellness at the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh.

“I always tell my patients’ parents, you can never underestimate your role in terms of role modeling,” she explains. “I have two young daughters myself. Sometimes I have to stop and explain to them why I’m working out. Why I’m doing all those ab exercises.

brb grouping aminos and creatine with HGH
