Problems of Doping in Sport

Problems of Doping in SportDoping is becoming a genuinely serious problem, not and within the united states but around the world too. A lot people do not actually understand the term of doping well doping is when an athletic supporter takes a drug that improves his/her playing ability.So many athletes around the world countenance been acc employ of doing this which brings up the question.Should athletes who prepare been caught doping be allowed to keep their trophies and medals.A great employment would be weight lifters.There have many situation where weight lifters have been question to chance on if they used drugs to help them win.(The use of performance-enhancing drugs, or doping, by overlord athletes has been acknow directged as a problem since at least the 1960s.Since then there have been multiple cases where athletes have been caught doping (The number of records that have been broken has led to allegations of use of performance-enhancing drugs in sports. ).So its sayi ng that all these record holders are all being accused of doping..Which proves the point that athletes are using these drugs to win.Another example would be Lance Armstrong.Lance armstrong is a world famous cyclist who has won a record holding seven tour de france titles. Recently lance has been unsheathed of all the titles be possess come to find out he was doping.(Lance Armstrong, (born September 18, 1971, Plano, Texas, U.S.), American cyclist, who was the but rider to win seven Tour de France titles (1999-2005) but who was later marginal of all his titles after an investigation revealed that he was the key figure in a wide-ranging doping conspiracy spot he compiled his Tour victories.)(Alex Rodriguez admits to using performance-enhancing drugs while playing for the Texas Rangers).(Three-time Tour de France winner Alberto Contador is stripped of his 2010 title for doping).(The USADA bans sprinter Justin Gatlin for eight years after he tests positive for banned substances a sec ond time. Gatlin is also obligate to forfeit his 100-meter world record).(1996 Tour de France winner Bjarne Riis admits using performance-enhancing drugs to win his title. Race organizers tell him to return his yellow first- muffledfound jersey).Showing that Lance Armstrong is one of the many who have been caught doping. (Armstrong used performance-enhancing drugs-including erythropoietin (EPO) and human stickth hormone-and distributed drugs to other cyclists.)Not only has he been caught doping but also of distributing the drug to other cyclist, which mean there are more of them out there who have yet to be caught.Lance Armstrong a man who could of had a great career and could have accomplished a lot of good things decided to git and throw his career away. Not only that but the things he WORKED so hard for to get (his medals and trophies) got takes away from him in a instant, proving that athletes who use doping as a way to get an advantage should be striped of the tiles and tro phies.Now losing their trophies is not the only negative thing that comes out of doping along with the fact that you are teacher the younger generation to cheat but doping also affects you physically and mentally. Some of the side effects can be very little and some have been know to end in death.(Anabolic steroid abuse has been associated with a wide range of adverse side effects ranging from some that are physically unattractive, such as acne and breast development in men, to others that are life threatening, such as heart attacks and liver cancer.)There are still few cases where people have died doping. Results may vary depending on your gender, for example if you are a male the results can be (infertility, breast development, shrinking of the testicles,male-pattern baldness). Now for females results can be (anabolic steroids start masculinization. Breast size and body fat decrease, the skin becomes coarse, the clitoris enlarges, and the voice deepens. Women may experience exce ssive growth of body hair but stand scalp hair).Showing that doping once again will cause nothing but harm to yourself.What is the point of doping knowing eventually you will get caught, not only are they losing trophies and medals but now they are slowly losing your life.Now Doping can not only hurt you physically but it can hurt you socially as in the people and things around you.First off it can send a bad message to the younger generation, a lot of these kids grow up in bad environments and do not have much going for them so sports is kind of there way out of that harsh place and when they see their favorite athletes doping they are going to grow up thinking that it is okay cause that is what they grew up watching.(Alex Rodriguez admits to using performance-enhancing drugs while playing for the Texas Rangers).Alex Rodriguez is a very famous baseball player who played for the new york yankees and the texas ranger and is a really big icon to all the little baseball player. Now do you think they will react when they hear that he has been caught doping? They will probably think it is cool and indirect request to do it when they get older. Which is not the message the athletes want to be sending but that is how they will take it when they keep hearing about some athlete who got caught doping. Oddly enough some people in society believe doping should be allowed be allowed in sports because they think it will make it more interesting.(others believe that athletes should be free to improve their performances as they see fit and that sports would be better served if the drugs were legitimate and safe).These are the people who have already been poisoned thinking that doping is a good thing as long as it is safe which no doping is safe. Now there are some people who think it is dump and destroys the lawfulness of the game. (Many people support the idea that the use of performance-enhancing drugs weakens the integrity of sports).Which shows that a lot of believe t hat no good comes from doping.Doping is a serious that has been on the rise for a while now ,many athletes have been caught doing it and it can cause health problems. Some people have accepted that it is a thing and believe they should be allowed to do it and most people with common sense thinks it is dumb and should not be allowed. Answer this is doping worth it, knowing that it will cost all the medals and trophies they worked so hard to get and possibly even their life.
