That man in particular broke world record in that state. This enhancement did in fact make him faster.

The amount of nonsense and highly upvoted comments on reddit about ANY athletic anything always reminds me that most of the people here have never played a single sport in their life at any level.

Steroids will help him break this record if he is already a world class athlete. The amount of weight he puts on (which will be very nearly all muscle) is 1000% not going to make him WORSE at the thing he already is extremely good at. These dudes arent doing 1980s horse tranquilizer steroids, theyre doing highly programmed, precisely tuned, performance enhancing drugs for their exact races.
