      This is the first time I have logged on to current.com . If this is the limit of their "investigative journalism" I wont be coming back much. Anyone with any knowledge will know that a woman using steroids is just a dumb idea. Women's bodies cannot handle that level of testosterone. She also took Clenbuterol, as Daniel_Schultz stated. This is not a steroid. It is a Bronchodilator. She also took it stupidly. You start with a small dose and taper up, and then when you stop you need to taper down. Yes there are people who abuse steroids. But just look at the list of possible side effects from over the counter and prescription drugs. If AAS were regulated properly it would make it safer.

    • spiropant (3:54) is otherwise known as clenbuterol, or "clen" which is a strong stimulant that bodybuilders use to shed fat, it is not a steroid, although she probably doesn't know this.

      The weight gain would be largely attributed to holding water from the stress caused by not taking appropriate cautions when using clen, and she had trouble sleeping because of it as well.

      There was no evidence of what her diet was, or how she trained, if at all. I cant really see how this made it on the air.

      What she did was very foolish and dangerous, and it seems that very little research of what steroids are or how they work was done.
