Many bodybuilders and actors use steroids to get incredibly ripped bodies but that s a very dangerous trend. Generally, steroids help in providing proteins and prevent the effects of cortisol in muscle tissues resulting in greater muscle mass. This in turn helps you build more defined biceps, triceps and six-pack abs. Steroids are usually derivatives of male hormones like testosterone and are usually taken in an oral or injection form. Some of the common ones sold are andro, clenbuterol, clen, primobolan and decadurobolin.
