    Boxers using Supplements is it cheating?

    Alot of these boxers are using supplements and some even steroids!

    Combine that with natural talent sutch as james toney or roy jones and shane mosley does that give and unfair advantage?

    Mosley said he took creatine
    I believe vargas took creatine
    and list goes on!

    I take a supplement but I do not think it is an enhancer its call ERGOPHARM gf-pro its whey protein isolate I mix it with water and take it first thing in the morning and after I workout it really helps my muscle recover been on it for a week.


    Anyone here believe in supplementing are you for it or against it?

    steroids is cheating supplements like protein, creatine, etc..is not. Creatine is a substance found is raw meats, its a form of protein. Now steroids is a hormone thats totally different.

      You've gotta be kidding me. Creatine is a compound of three amino acids. I'm calling Ali the biggest fraud/cheater ever, I hear he took Vitamin C to avoid colds.

        amino acids are found is proteins, like eggs, meats, etc..creatine is found in raw meats like beef red meats. amino acids/creatine/protein are all linked.

            your not going to see instant gains from supplements, they just help you get the vitamins and nutrients your body needs, if you eat right you really dont need to take them, but eating right is like boiled chicken breast, rice cakes, stuff like that..thats why alot of people just rather take the easy way and take supplements.

              This might be better in the training and nutrition section, but either way:

              Glutimine: helps muscles recover faster after a workout. I used to supplement with this, but its usually included in most whey protein mixes.

              Creatine: some people have success with this, some dont. I find it helps to combine this with dextrose or other simple sugars to force your body's insulin to push the creatine into the blood with the sugar.

              Any whey shake, daily multivitamins, etc are all good as well.

                  no..but steroids makes you stronger and makes you more aggresive and also helps you absorb punishment and also makes you recover quicker so you body grows faster.

                    ^I said in my first post combine steroids with natural talented boxers such as james toney, and so forth! I believe steroids doesnt help in boxing cause you need stamina and endurance and steroids is good for quick bursts.


                    now what about supplements?
