Forty one amateur body builders in a West of Scotland gymnasium were questioned about body building drug usage during the period January 1984 to January 1985. Eight out of 41 (19.5%) had used drugs to enhance their physique and performance. Anabolic and androgenic agents were mainly used but diuretics, thyroxine and human chorionic gonadotrophin were also used. Those who took drugs, in all cases, took combinations of drugs. Drug dosage was generally much in excess of that normally recommended, though there were no serious side effects at the time of the study. If this experience was typical nationwide it would represent a significant number of body builders abusing drugs. In no case was there any medical supervision.
1984年1月至1985年1月期间,对苏格兰西部一家健身房的41名业余健美运动员进行了关于使用健美药物的询问。41人中有8人(19.5%)使用药物来增强体型和提高成绩。主要使用的是合成代谢和雄激素类药物,但也使用了利尿剂、甲状腺素和人绒毛膜促性腺激素。所有使用药物的人都同时服用多种药物。药物剂量普遍远远超过正常推荐剂量,不过在研究期间没有出现严重的副作用。如果全国范围内都是这种情况,那么将意味着有相当数量的健美运动员在滥用药物。而且在任何情况下都没有医疗监督。
