fandacious Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Can any doctors out there comment on this? It seems there is a flaw with HCT testing. If you test immediately after strenuous exercise, then your hct can be upto 10% higher. So lets pretend i'm upto my ears on EPO and I get tested. I can tell them, "sorry, I just finished training". isnt that a bit silly?
fandacious Posted April 24, 2009 Author Posted April 24, 2009 no not at all.. I can just claim I had strenuous exercise
TNT1 Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 Maybe ask David George next time you see him... He was rested while riding for Barloworld for having a too high level...
fandacious Posted April 25, 2009 Author Posted April 25, 2009 no i'm just curious. if strenuous exercise results in higher hct, why even bother testing riders after a race?
