hmm. i find it rather scary that supp companies are tarketing the adolescent market for anything.

Have you seen a muscle rag in the last 5 years? EVERY supplement company is targeting teens.

That's one of the reasons I stopped modding at another board.

Of course, they miss the underlying issue. The cause is the win at all costs attitude we are instilling in youngsters. It is the same attitude that gets them on gear.

no i haven't looked at a muscle rag (aimed at men) ever i think. *lol*

but yeah, i definitely agree with you tho. vera scareh.
