Product Description
Length: 30 min. Performance rights and Discussion Guide included. (Gr. 6-12, College) Steroid use is growing in popularity among high school athletes and non-athletes alike. Co-hosted by Kevin Sorbo, star of popular TV series Hercules and Andromeda, this program addresses the use of supplements and illegal anabolic steroids by girls as well as boys. In this special, teens from across the country discuss the media influence as well as pressure from coaches and friends as contributing to the allure of steroids for sports and self-image. We hear from an ex-user who describes how his use had devastating effects on his life. Medical experts, including the directors of an effective steroid prevention program, explain the dangerous side effects of and the misconceptions about steroids. We also visit a steroid prevention program in the Portland high schools where teens, doctors, physical trainers and a nutritionist show how to build up by eating and exercising the right way.
