In this episode of Lifters League, they chat to Tim Piatkowski, a researcher in harm reduction for Image and Performance Enhancing Drugs. They discuss the social cultural influences and the pressure it puts on both men and women to enhance image and performance. They look at the current strategies in place to educate and reduce harm through peer-to-peer and support programs and we discuss how Tim’s research will help bolster the resources into these programs.
