cfcjim Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 They were doing this in the 1980's/90's before the olympics... old and really sadistic way to dopeEG female athlete back then.... She's more of a man than you'll ever be...
Shebeen Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 They were doing this in the 1980's/90's before the olympics... old and really sadistic way to dopeEG female athlete back then.... that looks more like testosterone doping. They really should just scratch all the women's records and start again. And not just talking East Germans here(although being German they did it best). Flo jo had one amazing season, set in reachable records and then retired in her mid twenties. Just after they announced out of competition testing.....
Nancy Drew Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Hormonal and other changes in pregnancy affect physical performance. In the first three months it is known that a woman’s body produces a natural surplus of red blood cells, which are well supplied with oxygen-carrying haemoglobin, in order to support the growing foetus.[1] A study of athletes before and after pregnancy by Professor James Pivarnik at the Human Energy Research laboratory in Michigan State University has found there is a 60 per cent increase in blood volume and that this could improve the body’s ability to carry oxygen to muscles by up to 30 per cent.[1] This would have obvious positive effects on aerobic capacity. Other potential advantages are obtained from the surge in hormones that pregnancy induces, predominantly progesterone and oestrogen, but also testosterone, which could increase muscle strength. Increases in hormones like relaxin, which loosens the hip joints to prepare for childbirth, may have a performance enhancing effect on joint mobility.[1] Several world records have been set by female athletes shortly after giving birth to their first child.[2][3] This is accepted as a natural and unintended event.[2] Thanks, I understand the 'theory' behind the concept, but I'm saying that it's impractical to put into practice. Most pregnant women in the first trimester can barely keep their eyes open from exhaustion, let alone go break world records on the track... and doing so between bouts of nausea and vomiting. I have my doubts.
Jaco-fiets Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 When I thought that the motor doping at the cyclo cross world champs was crazy, this takes the cake. http://www.snopes.com/politics/sexuality/doping.asp In short, ladies get knocked up, use the boost in blood levels for the 3 months then abort and compete with higher blood levels. Apparently there are rumours that this is happening in SA for running races. *The only doping thread that cannot get derailed by Chris Froome lynch mob Oh ok! So Froome just moans like biatch then....
