With every passing year, the bodybuilding world has seen major changes- be it the evolution of modern exercises to gain muscles or the overuse of ster**ds in recent times. Many prominent figures in the sport continue to use PEDs to ensure that their physiques remain as shredded as they want to be.
However, there are some who still continue to use the platforms they have to spread awareness about the side effects of the usage of PEDs. The reigning champ of Men’s Classic Physique, Chris Bumstead, is one such reliable icon who recently shed light upon a major side-effect of ster**d intake.

In a recent video uploaded by Valuetainment’s official YouTube account, CBum shared his opinions about the drugs, recalling a 17-year-old boy who approached him to seek his advice on ster**d consumption. When asked about his take on it, Bumstead said that the abuse of PEDs can destroy or dump one’s natural testosterone for a lifetime. Moreover, he added, that usage “can make you infertile.”
Revealing how side effects may vary from person to person, he detailed the health dangers associated with it as well. According to Bumstead, usage of PEDs can lead to more risk of heart disease, and an increase in cholesterol, and not just that, it can even affect one’s liver and various internal organs. “It can be very damaging especially when abused,” Bumstead said.
The five-time Olympia winner, who counted so many horrible health dangers that can be caused by the overuse of these drugs, had once highlighted the fact that ster**ds can only help with limited enhancement.

Bumstead was once asked about how drugs were the only thing needed to make it to the top of the bodybuilding sport. Answering the question in the negative, Bumstead said, “I mean it’s proven because if you guys really knew how many people take steroids and look like crap, It’s a very high level of people.”
He further added, “Of course, it can excel you to a higher level.” However, he added how the intake of ster**ds will never help and can only lead to a certain amount of enhancement. According to the bodybuilder, the goal should be hard work, dedicated training, and consistency. In a candid confession, he also revealed how he had taken lesser amounts of PEDs over the year and learned to “be more consistent and efficient with my nutrition I’ve learned how to push myself harder.”
