What do you think about the teen division? Should there even be one? Should it be drug tested?
 
I think so. Poly and and blood tests by independent agencies.
 
I think their should be a teen division, I mean alot of us, myself included started as teens...

As far as drug testing, there could be divisions for tested and untested, I think that is perfectly reasonable and fair...teens are going to use AAS as well, regardless of how much us older lifters would tell them not too, it is not preventable, now at the same time, would testing teens be a deterrent?? That might be something worth noting...
 
If it was sanctioned by the NPC, it would show they gave a damn about the health risks associated with AAS use. Adult males fine (the science shows its rather safe), but teens? I must say, teen testing would be good both as policy and politically
 
100 %

it unfair to alot of teen who compete in shows who are still natural

i train this one kid for the past 2-3 years now and he has done 4 shows...always finishing last place.
id say out of 2 of the shows if he was "on" something then he would have won...

so yes i agree with a tested and non tested class....
or teach the kids drugs arent always the answer and test them all

at such a young age aas isnt needed yet, so many kids havent reached their full potenital at 17-18 y/o
 
I agree with there being a tested and non-tested class/group/competition. Let the naturals have their show, and the chemically assisted have their shows. It will level the playing field and make it more fair to all who compete.
 
i don't like the idea of testing.....if they did, then the next argument would be to test ALL divisions at a show which would be costly and invasive to most of us competitors......i also think the teen division is not as popular today as it was in the 90's and possibly teens should be included in the novice division with no open teen category
