What a tragedy.
I used to support weightlifting for teens, but seeing the kind of over supplementing juice monkeys that emerge, it's hard to. Gyms themselves contribute to the problem - they care about nothing more than to sell as many gym memberships as possible. I see people lifting weight like they are having a seizure and "trainers" walk right past without a second glance. If the basics aren't even taught, neither is supplement/steroid abuse.
I saw a redneck family come into a Vitamin Shoppe saying "Our son has been working out for 2 weeks now...what do we need to buy to make him bigger? I mean, not too big, but, you know, bigger..."
