The male hormone testosterone has synthetic derivatives known as androgenic-anabolic steroids (AAS). They have powerful physiological impacts on people that might improve sports performance. The majority of laboratory investigations, according to a study of the literature, did not look into the actual AAS doses that are now being abused in the field. As a result, those studies might not accurately depict the (unfavourable) consequences of steroids. The short-term use of these medications by athletes has been shown to improve strength and body weight, according to the scientific literature that is currently accessible. Strength increases of about 5-20% of initial strength and weight increases of 2-5 kg that might be explained by an increase in lean body mass have been seen.

Participating in sports can enhance a person with a disability's physical and mental health, as well as their functionality and anxiety levels. In spite of this, a sizable portion of people with disabilities are inactive. The literature on the experiences and perceived health advantages of sport involvement for kids, teens, adults, elite athletes, and veterans with disabilities will be synthesised for the first time in this review. Understanding these occurrences will help researchers better understand the advantages and health benefits of sport involvement that are unique to each population. By promoting these advantages, researchers want to increase participation rates and, ultimately, improve people's health.
