It would seem that people who favoured tested sports are quite happy with the way Armstrong has been treated and the winging and whining is coming largely from those in favour of drug taking.


Spot on.

I agree. Play within the rules and hope that if others are not doing the same they are caught.

That said it opens up another can of worms. The one I am thinking of is that many rules for tested comps, to my knowledge, do not actually ban you from using PEDs. What those rules say is that you can be tested. So you can have people who deem the rule to be "I can use PEDs in this sport so long as I do not get caught".

Is a guy who does this still worthy of the same respect? Does he still deserve to win? Simply for applying that kind of logic to the rules? All tricky stuff and the failures in the system will continue for as long as the testing is a joke or guys can get around the systems in place.

What should be done? Test everyone in a tested comp. Every week if necessary. Make the tests cheaper. Whatever it takes to clean up these sports.

What can be done? Probably not a lot and certainly not what I suggested lol

What absolute crap, if that's how you justify being a drugs cheat then you are clearly naive and bordering on stupid.
You cannot compare the effects of a good diet and gear.


yea u can lol i have plenty of teenage spastic mates who use gear and don't eat, and they look awful and are weak as piss.

It makes a difference but the person still has to work hard and be genetically gifted. Gear alone will not make someone bench over 200 or deadlift over 300

l


WADA code, which all proper tested sports sign up to specifically says

"2.1.1 It is each Athlete’s personal duty to ensure that no Prohibited Substance enters his or her body."

That seems pretty clear to me.

Wanting it by any means necessary and willing to go to all lengths I presume?

Because just "wanting it" and not being willing to do some of the, lets me be honest now, common knowledge things that you do, isn't going to get you there all the time, is it?

Your a determined guy then. If I was a coach, give me the guy that will give everything over the lazy talented guy who just doesn't want it enough. Genetics are only useful if you have the right mentality to push beyond your limits.
