Serious human beings without major hardships in life aren't using drugs, alcohol, or tobacco. This shows a weakness of personal discipline if nothing else.
And most athletes aren't modern day Lawrence Taylors.

I think drug use among athletes is actually very common, in particularly coke, you have seen top tier athletes like Cameron Munster and Brandon Smith flaunt it on their insta.
Professional athletes in North America and Europe are regularly tested for performance enhancing and recreational drugs.ZIMDOGGY wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 8:52 amI think drug use among athletes is actually very common, in particularly coke, you have seen top tier athletes like Cameron Munster and Brandon Smith flaunt it on their insta.
I know from friends who have witnessed that coke use amongst pro cricketers and rugby players is extreme.
The reason is pretty clear.
The buzz is top notch and it is 'healthy' and clean in the sense it doesnt affect athletic performance, put on weight (like alcohol) and it is out of your system the next day.
Alot of fitness type influencers will not drink but do coke as an alternative, it is pretty widespread.
i dont do it myself because anything that gets sniffed directly to your brain creeps me out, and I do know one girl that developed a severe life altering addiction. But i know people that see coke as no different than a friday night beer, affordability aside.
Of course, but they can get away with it with coke.eugene wrote: ↑Sat Jan 27, 2024 5:17 pmProfessional athletes in North America and Europe are regularly tested for performance enhancing and recreational drugs.ZIMDOGGY wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 8:52 amI think drug use among athletes is actually very common, in particularly coke, you have seen top tier athletes like Cameron Munster and Brandon Smith flaunt it on their insta.
