Roid Busters is a steroid education program for high school, middle school, recreation department, and league coaches, parents, and athletes. The program discusses what steroids are, how they work, how they are taken, reasons for their use, and warning signs of abuse. Other ergogenic (performance enhancing) substances are discussed as well as the most common nutritional supplements that athletes take. Sports nutrition and sports performance training are reviewed because a proper diet and proper training can provide tremendous results without the use of these dangerous and illegal substances.
