[QUOTE="wormwoodathletics, post: 343343, member: 43616"] I don't like criticizing anyone and I hope that you will not take this as criticism but do you really believe that supplements are not good? And if you do have you ever taken ibrueprofen for pain?...A lot of people ridicule supplements but then they're the first to reach for pain medication or cold medication when they have the flu... If you understand what supplements are and their benefit to athletes you would know that our food supply is completely deminished of the vital minerals and nutrients that we need and that's the value of supplements. Also there are supplements that occur naturally in food that we don't get enough of based on the training that we do so we need the supplements to make up the difference. I could on and on but hopefully you get the point. All that being said I'm not trying to get you to take supplements or even change your view of supplements I respect and support your right to not take supplements but I don't think it's cool to criticize those of us that take and benefit from supplements. What you said...... "Quite clear and simple. All supplements should be banned. Or even better, ridiculed out of town. The average player is already too fit for his own good. And the morbid, neurotic pursuit of more power is little short of fascist perfectionism." ..... just isn't cool!!! [/QUOTE]
