Steroids would fall under: intentional consumption of drugs not prescribed by a registered medical practitioner.

and the f***nuts doubled my premium because of my very high BMI.
I feel like I am being discriminated against, because a BMI is no indication of how healty a person is. So basically they give annorexics discounts because of their low BMI???
that plus BMI puts people as overweight and obese very easily... heck I think most people on this forum would atleast fall into the overweight catagory...
anybody else got this shit from them?

I had the same issue - doubled premium based on BMI. I ranted at my broker, who took it up with the head medical advisor for my life insurer. I went for an appointment with him, and he took one look at me before deciding to drop the penalty. The fact that he had a higher BF than me might have played a role :lol:

As spike says, just provide them a certified bodyfat test then everything is perfect after that...

At this point in time I’m only on Male Hybrid Ripped which I guess is a hunger suppressant and a light oral. Would this be picked up in a medical or can I continue my course and not worry?
Are the testing you for drugs?
Detecting specific anabolics is not easy, and honestly too expensive for most people to give a fuck.
I would guess, should your T be really high, or LH and FSH off with high levels of T, maybe they would care or ask questions?
I would be very shocked if they did in depth testing but am interested to hear if anyone knows?

Won't get picked up and you can continue your course.
