The chi-square and z-tests of proportions were used for comparison between the groups (p < 0.05).Results83.2% did not use, 9.1% formerly used, 3.4% currently used, and 4.3% intended used AS. The prevalence of former or current AS users was 16.9 and 6.5% among men and women, respectively. The prevalence ratios were as follows: 1) 2.6 male users for each woman; 2) 3.3 individuals aged 30–44 years and 2.8 individuals aged 18–29 years for each individual aged over 45 years. Beginners were not interested in using AS, but individuals who had trained longer had higher prevalence of AS use.ConclusionsThe gym environment encouraged the use of AS owing to aesthetic appeal. Thus, suggesting the need for actions to prevent abusive use of AS considering the practitioners profile (practitioners were young, university and single).

Objective: to characterize the profile of bodybuilders regarding the use of ergogenic resources and to relate it to body self perception. Method: a quantitative, cross-sectional study carried out at two-city fitness centers in Minas Gerais with structured interviews using a questionnaire and the set of silhouettes. The analysis was by the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS15.0), General Linear Model of repeated measures and Pearson's correlation. Results: the practice of bodybuilding, in both sexes, was due to improved health. Most said they perform physical activities and consume supplements without medical or nutritional guidance. The most commonly used is the protein, being that men consume more, compared to women. Conclusion: there was no evidence of self-image changes related to the use of supplements, despite the lack of orientation. Descriptors: Self image; Anabolics; Dietary Supplements; Health Promotion.
