Yes. In the United States, most anabolic steroids (i.e. those not prescribed by a licensed physician) are controlled substances under the Anabolic Steroids Control Act of 1990, an amendment to the Controlled Substances Act. Other countries have similar laws. Violation of these laws is often grounds for termination of employment under typical employment agreements.
It depends on the country you are in but generally anabolic steroids are illegal unless you have a prescription from a doctor. Most modern countries they are illegal, in Thailand they are legal, and in the UK the law seems to change a lot, they were at one point legal for personal use but i believed they have now changed it to a class c drug. Doctors don't provide anabolic steroids (anabolic meaning muscle growth, which only has one use to build muscle)

There are a few types of steroids such as cortisone, prednisone,anti inflammatory or anabolic androgenic steroids. Most steroids require not only a legitimate medical use, but a legitimate doctor's prescription. After those 2 requirements have been met, purchase, use and posession would be considered legal. The term "legal steroids" is also used in the bodybuilding community to make reference to a unique group of supplements/chemicals that can be legally obtained, used and posessed. Most of these legal steroids are "clones" or molecularly enhanced derivitives of an original anabolic steroid. Google, Yahoo and even youtube has a wealth of information on this subject.

"Steroids" is a drug. Like many drugs, if used in a right way, it can help your body.

Also, most people would not be "OK" with the decision to use steroids with the intent of making yourself better at a sport.
If hes not currently, he definitely has been. I'm afraid to reach such levels you need to be on anabolic steroids plus have good genetics, good diet and train hard. Unfortunately most sportspeople have used steroids and often admit it once retired, as its the easiest way for them to exceed their genetics.

Yes, Ronnie Coleman most definitely is a steroid user. It is physiologically impossible to become that size without continuously cycling androgenic anabolic steroids. He also uses Human Growth Hormone which would explain his elongated abdominal reigon. He does diet properly and has quite a hardcore workout routine, but its with the aid of anabolic steroids.
Anabolic refers to processes in the body that build and repair tissues, typically resulting in growth and development. It is often associated with the use of steroids to enhance muscle growth and strength.
