41名业余健美运动员在苏格兰西部的体育馆被问及健身药物的使用期间，1984年1月至1985年1月。41人中有8人（19.5%）曾使用药物来增强体质和提高成绩。主要使用合成代谢和雄激素药物，但也使用利尿剂、甲状腺素和人绒毛膜促性腺激素。那些服用药物的人，在所有情况下，都服用了药物组合。药物剂量通常远远超过通常推荐的剂量，尽管在研究时没有严重的副作用。如果这种经验是典型的全国性的，它将代表大量的滥用药物的健美运动员。在任何情况下都没有任何医疗监督。
Forty one amateur body builders in a West of Scotland gymnasium were questioned about body building drug usage during the period January 1984 to January 1985. Eight out of 41 (19.5%) had used drugs to enhance their physique and performance. Anabolic and androgenic agents were mainly used but diuretics, thyroxine and human chorionic gonadotrophin were also used. Those who took drugs, in all cases, took combinations of drugs. Drug dosage was generally much in excess of that normally recommended, though there were no serious side effects at the time of the study. If this experience was typical nationwide it would represent a significant number of body builders abusing drugs. In no case was there any medical supervision.
