Men often start exercising in their youth, motivated by a desire to enhance their appearance and tie their self-worth to how they look. According to them, the ideal man is strong, both physically and mentally. There can be no weakness, and the protection of the family and traditional values comes first. Their identity gets diluted in favor of bodybuilding, as a healthy lifestyle can turn into a destructive obsession. It starts with dietary supplements, but it is easy to cross the fine line between them and anabolic steroids, which are associated with a number of risks.
