The phenomenon of doping in amateur and recreational sports is marginalized. However, its scope is greater than in professional sports. This is due to the fact that the use of steroids, hormones and other prohibited substances is constantly increasing, most often by people who attend gyms and fitness clubs. The purpose of their use is not related to the desire to achieve a specific sports result. It is mainly aimed at improving one’s physical appearance. This practice is accompanied by the interest of organized crime in the production and distribution of such drugs. Its nature requires a strong criminal reaction and the involvement of properly trained state services and agencies.
