Maybe they just don't skip the gym? For a lot of people the gym is a relaxing "third place"[1] that they truly are sad to miss for a period of time. I'm sure some percentage are augmenting, but it is surprising how common it to see people on social media declaring that people with the slightest bit of definition or muscles as steroid users. [1] Should we call it the "second place" in the era of WFH?

>For a lot of people the gym is a relaxing "third place"[1] that they truly are sad to miss for a period of time. Not at all in my case. In my youth gyms were places for hooligans, _heavy_ steroids abusers, low end criminals, and thus places to avoid. Then spent some years in Germany where gym contracts are famously predatory and abusive, again a place to avoid. Only around 2 years ago had found a civilized place finally. Starting to visit regularly meant to actually overcome some traumas.
