 | | The DELTS project | People are increasingly using performance and image enhancing drugs (PIEDs) to help them meet their ‘body-image-related goals’. This includes substances such as anabolic-androgenic steroids to increase muscle mass and strength, and the use of weight-loss drugs for fat burning purposes.
Mainline is part of the DELTS project. This project aims to promote healthy behaviour and harm reduction in recreational sport. Two e-learning tools are to be tested during this project. The project is a collaboration between partners in five different European countries.
