Athletes are a group of people who take part in sports
for the entertainment of viewers. In sports the main emphasis is given on the
equality of every player along with the fair play. Though performance enhancing
drugs are legally but they should be avoided by the athletes most of the time.
Overdose of these drugs can even lead to death. Most of the study states that
sports improve the physical and mental health. So why to play with it?
It had been observed that most of the players do
develop unfortunate illness or injuries most of the time but at the same time
physical exercises have been proven to improve one's health. Apart from this
prolonged use of drug can not only restrict these athletes from performing
physically but also shorten their lifespan as well.
With recent stats it has been observed that more and
more athletes have started taking different forms of drugs. Many have been
caught doing this most of the time. Not only they take the PED's but also the
illegal drugs like marijuana, cocaine etc. Since professional athletes are role
models of many youths so if a professional athlete is indulging in these
consumption of drugs then the youth will also not restrict themselves from
doing such things. So student athletes should also be drug tested. Not only
this but they should also be made very clear about the facts that these PED's
and other illegal drugs are harmful for their health. Getting addicted to such
drugs at a very young age can generally
harm their health in a bad way. So if a student athlete is taking part
in some sport then the coaches and trainers should make sure that they get them
drug tested.
All these athletes should have a clear mind and should
generally not get under influence of such harmful things. These student
athletes generally represent their schools
so they should not try to ruin their school reputation by being a big druggy
or partying every weekend. Studies have proved that these student athlete get
addicted to these things very easily. For most of them this is just a mere form
of fashion. Drugs affect the athlete's performance. Not only this but it also
affect their team and teammates. So one should make sure that these student
athletes get drug tested before every performance so that they don't get
indulged in such harmful things so easily and that at such a young age.
