==== Anabolic/androgenic steroid use ====
This period also saw the rise of [[anabolic steroid]]s in bodybuilding and many other sports. More significant use began with [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]], [[Sergio Oliva]], and [[Lou Ferrigno]] in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and continuing through the 1980s with [[Lee Haney]], the 1990s with [[Dorian Yates]], [[Ronnie Coleman]], and [[Markus Rühl]], and up to the present day. Bodybuilders such as [[Greg Kovacs]] attained mass and size never seen previously but were not successful at the pro level. Others were renowned for their spectacular development of a particular body part, like [[Tom Platz]] or [[Paul Demayo]] for their leg muscles. At the time of shooting ''Pumping Iron'', Schwarzenegger, while never admitting to steroid use until long after his retirement, said, "You have to do anything you can to get the advantage in competition".{{citation needed|date=November 2014}} He would later say that he did not regret using steroids.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.cbsnews.com/news/arnold-no-regrets-about-steroids/|newspaper=CBS|date=February 11, 2009|title=Arnold: No Regrets About Steroids|access-date=August 13, 2013|archive-date=November 6, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131106123539/http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-250_162-676684.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

To combat anabolic steroid use and in the hopes of becoming a member of the [[IOC]], the IFBB introduced [[Use of performance-enhancing drugs in sport|doping]] tests for both steroids and other banned substances. Although doping tests occurred, the majority of professional bodybuilders still used anabolic steroids for competition. During the 1970s, the use of anabolic steroids was openly discussed, partly due to the fact they were legal.<ref>{{cite web  |last=Theunissen|first=Steve | name-list-style = vanc |title=Arnold & Steroids: Truth Revealed|url=http://hjem.get2net.dk/JamesBond/www/artikler/steroidemisbrug/arnoldandsteroids.htm|access-date=February 27, 2007|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031008172601/http://hjem.get2net.dk/JamesBond/www/artikler/steroidemisbrug/arnoldandsteroids.htm|archive-date=October 8, 2003|df=mdy-all}}</ref> In the [[Anabolic Steroids Control Act of 1990]], [[Congress of the United States|U.S. Congress]] placed anabolic steroids into Schedule III of the [[Controlled Substances Act]] (CSA). In Canada, steroids are listed under Schedule IV of the ''Controlled Drugs and Substances Act'', enacted by the [[Parliament of Canada|federal Parliament]] in 1996.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-38.8/|title=Consolidated federal laws of canada, Controlled Drugs and Substances Act|first=Legislative Services|last=Branch|date=September 19, 2019|website=laws-lois.justice.gc.ca|access-date=January 24, 2020|archive-date=April 8, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220408213707/https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/c-38.8/|url-status=live}}</ref>
