Thats how you know

 In the book the history of Mixed Martial Arts, Jim whiting does a good job explaining the rules and makes it easy to understand the rules.  He even shows pictures on some of the rules. Some people don’t like them and some people like them and the people that don’t like them have to deal with them. If the people break one of the rules they loose automatically or get a caution a caution means if they do it one more time they will loose. Because of the rules I think it makes it safer because in football in just 2002 died and 1,465 boxers died in 2007, and in 2008 only 2 mma fighters died in the history.

 The thing is that in mixed martial arts is the way you win is if the reef calls it, or technical knock out ,knock out, tap out , or the coach throws the towel in. These  are some of the rules I found on a website head butting because theirs not suppose to be any shoots to the for head. Eye gouging so you don’t blind you impotent, pulling hair that’s not a move at all its point less. Spitting disrespect to your impotent and its just discussing. Biting gross and not a move at all, fish hooking bad hurts and it is not a move.the bock help me with the types of classes like wrestling and the book help me know moves if i wanted to ever join MMA. I also recommend this book was good for MMA fighters and other wrestlers and boxers. i like the rules it wouldn't be fair if their wasn't any and i like how it turned out. 

 Punching or kicking to the groin that hurts and could destroy the body part, strikes to the back of the head and spinal area could paralyze if hit their. Strikes or grabs to the trachea could hurt really bad and damage body. Cant throw your opponent  out of ring or cage. Running out of the ring or cage. Purposely holding or grabbing the cage. Putting hands in glove or trunks. Pulling or holding opponents gloves or trunks. they train very long hours and days of training also they eat at least seven meals a day from working on fighting and lifting.

 Mixed martial arts is probably one of the toughest sports you train almost every day and the training is really tough.  But you have to be tough to be in it since…  Some one has been one death in it but he didn’t die in the ring he died in the hospital. MMA is a tough sport no doubt I don’t know if I could ever do a sport like it.

Steroids

  Since steroids are bad for you the government made them illegal so people don't hurt themselves. Sadly, people still take them and its not good for them and they are going to pay the consequences. Since it`s  illegal it helps to have people not take them but they still do and for that shame on you. in the book Gym candy, Carl Deuker the author wants us to know about steroids and how bad they are for us.

One of the things Deuker tells us about steroids and how  they are bad for you and illegal like in the story . The effects of steroids there are some good effects like it makes you look stronger every were in your body but it doesn't really make us stronger .  It also has bad effects for you like... If you’re a man it makes your genitals smaller and it could also give you breasts. It increases chances of cancer and it messes your nipples up like it makes them bigger and makes them just look nasty. It gives those who use steroids really bad acne on our back and chest It gives you bad muscles and it destroys them all of those things they said in the story.

Steroids can also mess up your career like what happened to Berry Bonds the baseball player .If the coaches find out your taking steroids they might suspend or even kick you off the team. In the story,  Gym Candy, the main character took the steroids and the coach almost found out. The coach said he would have had to suspend him if he was caught using steroids.

Their  are different kinds of steroids. Like there are pills and you have to take them allot like they said in the story and their is some ejecting ones and its nasty you have to eject them in to your butt so often. Its just not good and it`s recommend not to take them it will always end up bad in the end.(maybe make this the first body paragraph so the reader knows a little bit about steriods)

Some times people need to take them though. Like the doctor recommended kind. One of my friends need to take them. and a long time ago my old care giver was in a car crash and the doctor said she needed to take them. I almost had to take them because i had bronchitis and if the stuff the doctor gave me didn't work I would have had to take them.
