Week 3 - Drugs and Doping

What do you think about taking drugs generally and their use in sports?

People who practice sport in high level dope to increase their performances but it's not good for health.

The doping is very important in high level sport and it's very damage because it denature valours of sports.
It's very important because the high level puts an enormous pressure on athletes, and a lot of people want to became the news stars in sport. To have glory and money athletes putting their health in danger. For exemple Amstrong in cycling, he has all win but he had a cancer and I think doping is one of the reasons for what he which he got sick.

Hi everyboby !!
Don't take drugs and others stuffs, because for your healthy it's not good and i can say very bad !
If you want to have a big arms and legs, the doping is not good so please take a vegetables, move your body and take a big smile !!! Smoke and drink alcohol destroy your body ! So like me ... Don't take gugs and doping !
Good day

We could believe that the doping is exclusively reserved for the boys because in the media only the men are quoted but disabuse you! As say it goes shopping "sport fémina" when that this ask the question " we don't care that the women take drugs ". Indeed, there are almost so many women as men who are on drugs.

like emile I take no drugs and no alcohol. Yes because for me alcohol is a kind of drug, in fact if you take alcohol you change the way of thinking about the things and the way of spiking but it's just my point of vue anyway . I think evrybody will say that to take some drugs is really bad and i will never do that ( that's my case ) but I have some friends and they take a little bit drug . they tell me that it permit them to forget there problems and they fell good . Me I prefer to don't and problems that better

drugs and doping are very bad for health. First, they cause changes in the body. The individual is no longer master of himself. During physical exertion when we boosted the sport does not control his effort. It can also be inconsient what he does. Drugs and doping sanctions shipments a sporting competition is prohibited if it gets caught.

Good point.

First of all, I find that the doping is far too present at the sportsman's of high levels and nevertheless new business doesn't stop appearing. However it was predictable because certain substances increase strongly the physical and mental abilities of the sportsmen and because for them the most important is to win even if these substances can have consequences on their health. It is sad to see that because the sport stays before any a game, a leisure. Finally, I don't see how we could prevent them from taking drugs because their desires to gain are so much tall, I think that the drug will always be present in the sport.

to my mind, the image of the doping in high level sport is in cycling. I think it's impossible to make the tour de France without doping. 21 days, 200 km by day, 45 km/h on average... Physically impossible. Lance Armstrong, 7 victory on the tour, took of in 2012 by doping. And the team "SKY" dominate the tour since 3 years, all the sky dominate... It's very strange and it's bad because, there is no more pressure on the yellow jersey... So the doping is very bad for the healthy, and it's unfair because everybody is not doping or not with the same dose.

Hello, first of all I am against the drug and the doping. The drug has of heavy consequence on our body and thus is very bad for a sportsman. Then, I find that the doping in the sport is something inadmissible, he distorts the sport and the sportsmen using this method become cheaters. To conclude, the drug and the doping are not compatible with the sport.

We are going to talk about drugs in racing cycling with the example of Lance Armstrong. We know today, many of racing cyclist used drugs and win different cycle race. There racing cyclist are unmask without drugs several years later. Lance Armstrong for example, won 7 tour de france before controller of drog unmask him. After Armstrong unmask he lose his 7 tour de france but nobody has taker his title. This is for me inequitable that many of racing cyclist won title with drugs and there are unmask several years later because for others racing cyclist it is unfair and inequitable so they can win. Racing cycling is a sport inequitable because of drugs are too present in this sport and controls should be more present for unmask cheaters.

Drugs are always xith sport, you can't talk about high level sports without talking of drugs and dopping. In some countries like New Zealand, dopping is authorized beacause of the show (money). In others countries, autorities can close their eyes like in USA for american football, again here for the show.I don't take drugs, and i never dopped myself, because i think this is useless and that doesn't represent sport's spirit. But i'm not gonna tell you that i don't drink alcohol because i do and it's funny ( I like to drink and to throw up with friend like true BROS!! ).

We can notice that in many sport, there is numerous sportsmen who use products to improve their performance. But most of the products are drugs. And the doping in the sport is forbidden.

I think doping and drugs are two things that are bad for athletes because this is kind of product damage to them (health). I think too these products are bad because for me, drugs and doping take off the sport charm. Indeed, sport has taken a large-scale on a financial level and the athletes have to do spectacle and they must too adress the needs of spectator.

I think drogs and doping existing because there are a lot of money in sports and for win this money the sportmen are ready to put in danger their career and their health

The athletes have such a pressure and such demands from people who always ask more and more performances that they have recoursed to doping. But, how can we be proud of ourselves and happy of our victory when we have cheated ?
On the other hand, the doctors who agree to prescribe those products do acts contrary to their job. They put in danger the life of high-level sportspersons for money whereas their role would be to dissuade them.
Now, I'm going to talk about drugs. At the beginning, individuals consume drugs by curiosity, to fit in a group or being influenced. But that can quickly become a dependence especially people who have an uneasiness. The drugs enable them to forget their problems but it's a ephemeral solution.

*an ephemeral solution

Doping is an important topic actually in the sports world. Indeed many athletes trying to improve their performance by doping as it is contrary to the values ​​of sport. It is a practice totally banned but some athletes take the risk despite the sanctions that may fall.

you are too perfect for this group.

Take drugs is really bad for the health of the athletes but somes drugs improved the performances and the athletes is better this is doping and this is forbidden by all the federation but the scientific search all the solution for make the invisible doping and the athletes who used dope is better and he cheats, for me this pratice is very bad because it’s for the money and no for the sport

Why the doping is a subject so present in the sport ?
Indeed as said it suzy the doping affects as much the men as the women. But I think that the pressure is in high-level sports that certain sportsmen think that it is the only way to be able to drilled in this environment. But take drugs have many consequences on the body but also for the high-level sportsmen because take drugs it’s to cheat!! To conclued doped it is the worst thing which a sportsman can make even if he thinks that it is the only way to arrive there yetthe only means is to train.

Today the sport is based in performance, money,... So for achieve this goal people take drugs or
doping product. However, doping products are not all drugs, it exist lot of types of doping products. Some just to lose weight are prohibited. Media pressure,the bait of gain, grows sports to take doping products. But it's not a solution. Some people have due stop her career, or to put in stand-by during many years. So don't touch these products

The sport allows to surpass itself in physical tests and to give the best of oneself. Unfortunately, certain sportsmen take substances doppantes illicit to allow their body to be more successful. These substances such as the drug or others destroy us the health. DON'T TOUCH TAKE SUBSTANCES ! Furthermore by taking drugs we can lose our status of sports player.

I think sport is a pleasure. And when some athletes begin to take drugs, there is not pleasure but just the desire to be the best and to have a gold medal at any price. When an athlete takes some drugs, it's not respectful for his sport, for his health and for the other athletes.
