The Be Clean Be Fit project successfully concluded its Eastern European Final Conference for Anti-Doping Practices, bringing together more than 30 participants from the fitness sector across the region.

💪 Be Clean. Be Fit. 🇪🇺

Recent research across 🇷🇸 Serbia, 🇲🇰 North Macedonia, 🇧🇬 Bulgaria, and 🇬🇷 Greece explored doping knowledge, attitudes, and self-reported use among recreational athletes — revealing important truths.

📊 Key Findings Across the Balkans:

• 🇬🇷 Greece: Highest self-reported doping rates — 32% past use and 20% current use among gym-goers.
• 🇷🇸 Serbia: Diverse substance use, including stimulants, growth hormones, and recreational drugs.
• 🇧🇬 Bulgaria & 🇲🇰 North Macedonia: Lower rates, but widespread lack of knowledge about anti-doping rules.
• 💡 Across all four countries, many athletes support clean sport in theory but hesitate to report violations in practice.

⚠️ Health Consequences of Doping:

• ❤️ EPO thickens blood, raising the risk of stroke and cardiac arrest.
• 💀 Anabolics can cause liver cancer, infertility, and psychological dependence.
• 💉 Insulin abuse can be fatal due to blood sugar collapse.
• ☠️ Stimulants and narcotics trigger addiction, hallucinations, and respiratory paralysis.

📚 According to anti-doping experts, over 80% of global doping violations involve the presence of prohibited substances, and up to 9% are linked to undeclared ingredients in supplements.

🌍 Let’s unite for clean, fair, and healthy sport — built on knowledge, ethics, and respect.
Together, we raise awareness in the Balkans for a doping-free future 🇷🇸🇲🇰🇧🇬🇬🇷 under the values of the 🇪🇺 European Union.

Doping is not strength—it’s weakness disguised. 🚫

It risks your health, destroys your future, and erases the spirit of sport.

True athletes don’t need shortcuts. They need discipline, passion, and integrity.

Every clean victory inspires. Every honest effort counts.

🌍 Together, let’s protect fair play, respect, and trust in sport.

Because the best performance is the one that comes clean.
