Any activities in sports should come naturally, using performance-enhancing drugs to enhance their performance is against the value of sports, Sports should be fair play and not an energy booster, I am never in support of using performance enhancers and these are my reasons.
Firstly, using performance enhancers can bring Unfair advantages to the opponent:- Drugs can significantly enhance physical abilities, giving users an unfair edge over competitors who choose not to use them. This is called cheating to me because you have an edge over the other your opponent which is supposed not to be so, sport is a game and one person is meant to defeat the other person but it should come honestly, For example, a student that cheats in an examination and got the highest score how can such student defends him or herself if he has to defend the result or represent the school in a competition, but a student who read and pass can prove himself anywhere and anytime. This undermines the principles of fair play and equal opportunity.
According to my research, using performance enhancers can be dangerous to health, it has health risks, Performance-enhancing drugs can have serious, long-term health consequences, including cardiovascular problems, liver damage, and mental health issues. Why use it when they know it is bringing them closer to their grave, sports should be about fitness and not the other way round by using performance enhancers to boost out your energy in other to perform well. We all know that the advantage can be good for a while but the side effects will be worse and will not have a remedy, I can never be in support of using performance enhancers.
It can lead to addiction, it is just like a case of someone who is addicted to smoking before eating, such a person will never know how a meal is delicious unless he smokes, the same goes with performance enhancers, they will be addicted to it and can never perform any task unless they use that, it reduces their level of reasoning and hard work, it makes them feel useless unless they use it, without using it they can never think straight.
In my opinion, I would say there should be a restriction on using performance enhancers, their lives are at risk by using, and also they are not the ones performing the duties they ought to be doing because the enhancers are working for them, it will weak them as time goes on and this can bring down their career.
No one loves to be cheated, so doing this is called cheating, it is a dishonest way of bringing your wealth together and can never be accepted, even using performance enhancers is against the ethical principle of sport, which I know will never be allowed.
Sport should be fair play, honesty, and putting in your best for a better result not by cheating others, honesty should be the key because of the little ones who are watching them as role models.

Imagine all these negative side effects of using these drugs, still with these knowledge,most of them still pay deaf ears, I also support the ban measure.
I strongly agree with you, biko. Using enhancers is a form of cheating and should not be allowed in sports which is supposed to be a fair play.

Don't know...
I feel like asking...
Which kind of sports are you into?
I don't mean watching, I mean participating 😅
I think aside the addiction drug intake for these purpose cause, it also limits ones capacity...
While you know taking it would boost you up, there would be less reasons of challenging oneself to work hard and thereby causing limitation.

Performance enhancing drugs may be working for the users as it helps them be active and do well in sports but the long term effect is disastrous to the health.
