Over the last year, anabolic steroids and performance-enhancing "supplements" have been big news and they have been for some time. This year alone, Barry Bonds broke major league baseball’s home run record. Floyd Landis lost his Tour de France title allegedly using a testosterone-enhancing chemical and now Marion Jones returns all five of her Olympic medals from 2000. Were they cheating? What is the straight talk about steroids?

The Moynihan Institute has a good, if not irreverent take on the issue. Read it here.

No one will confuse me with someone who "juices". Just take a look at the numbers I post here!

Squats/Deadlifts DE @ 50% 1RM

Squats: 150# x 10 x 3
Deadlifts: 205# x 10 x 2

I had a little time left before I had to get on to other things so I tossed in a few Good Mornings for good measure.

Good Mornings: 65×10/95×5/115×3/125×3/
