Show transcript
Athletes with a 'win at all costs' mindset may use PEDs to improve performance and gain an unfair competitive edge. Anabolic steroids are used to increase muscles mass, train harder and recover from exercise quicker. Beta blockers reduce anxiety and muscle shakes, which can be beneficial for precision sports. Stimulants impact the central nervous system to reduce fatigue, increase alertness and improve reaction times.
