While discussing the risks of taking steroids, he proposes safe ways for athletes to achieve the desired physical fitness.

Masoud Ghadirian advises athletes who want to improve their physical fitness and health to avoid using steroid drugs and growth hormones of any kind. Nowadays, many athletes who begin bodybuilding exercises to improve their physical fitness and health quickly decide to use steroid drugs and growth hormones.
Such athletes may begin using performance-enhancing drugs for one of the following reasons:
Masoud Ghadirian believes that proper nutrition, exercise, and rest are essential for bodybuilding success. He claims that bodybuilders do not need to use drugs to gain muscle and burn fat; instead, they should concentrate on three factors: nutrition, exercise, and rest.
Bodybuilders who want to compete in professional competitions must achieve maximum muscle growth and fat loss.Therefore, they should only use steroids under the supervision of a doctor or a knowledgeable trainer.
Using steroids and growth hormones can result in irreversible side effects.Moreover, excessive or improper use of these drugs can pose serious risks and damage.
Ordinary people who exercise for health and physical fitness should never compare themselves to professional bodybuilders who compete, because they aspire to compete in professional competitions, despite the obvious risks.
He says, "Some young people believe that taking bodybuilding drugs and supplements is the most important factor in professional athletes' muscle growth. This is a completely false belief because using bodybuilding drugs and supplements without focusing on proper nutrition, exercise, and rest does not result in muscle building and growth."
Masoud Ghadirian enjoys assisting in the reduction of the prevalence of addiction, depression, and other diseases in Iranian society.
Many young people in Iran may be discouraged from continuing to exercise because they believe they will not be able to build muscle or achieve physical fitness without the use of sports supplements or hormones.
Masoud Ghadirian, on the other hand, constantly emphasizes the importance of proper nutrition in physical health and bodybuilding progress.
He says his goal is to help and guide young people and sports enthusiasts of all ages to live a healthy and happy life, which will help to reduce the prevalence of addiction, depression, and other diseases.
Masoud Ghadirian, a well-known and well-liked Iranian bodybuilder, also advocates the use of safe medicinal plants.
On his Instagram page, he frequently recommends that athletes use natural herbal substances to maintain their cardiac and hepatic health.
He also suggests that young athletes consume more healthy foods and vitamins rather than sports supplements.One of the possible reasons for his popularity among Iranian athletes is that bodybuilding is not a business for him; rather, he is concerned with athletes' health.
