that's not how they work. do you even know the difference between an anabolic steroid and an adrogenic steroid?

Steroids do not increase or improve "fast twitch" muscles. This a long ago exposed myth. Fast twitch fibers cannot be isolated by any compound.

Why do sprinters use them?

Further, bats aren't light. Is it your position that steroids don't increase core strength? Because if they do, it allows you to move said bat through the zone quicker because your body doesn't have to strain as hard to move the mass. Or if you don't want to improve batspeed but just power, you can use a heavier bat. At that point pure physics come into play - heaver bat = greater ability to drive the ball.

So what is it, sport? Do steroids not increase strength? Do they not improve the effectiveness of fast-twitch muscles?

Are they essentially just super-sized Flintstones vitamins?

You're a fantastic argument for the perils of steroids.
What perils? Do tell. How many deaths a year do we have in the United States are from steroids? Big fat ass ZERO. Second, try sticking to the discussion instead of personal attacks. It's just a cover for not being able to argue intelligently on this topic.

Second, steroids don't improve hand eye coordination. If you can't hit a curve ball because your hand eye coordination doesn't allow you to, no amount of juice in the world will improve that, no. Period. Can you hit the ball harder? Sure. And my question is WHO GIVES A ****?

How does it impact your life in a negative way?

When a baseball player takes steroids does a child in Africa die or something? What am I missing? What part of a baseball player taking something has a negative effect on your life? Just answer that. YOUR LIFE.
