From Yahoo Sports News, IRT Basso suspension:

"I have the impression that every now and then we lose sight of the
issue at hand," said the Italian Olympic Committee (CONI) antidoping
prosecutor Ettore Torri. "We don't have a problem with the cyclists,
the problem is with the people that induce them to make use of doping
products and tell them where to find them."

So why aren't we granting amnesty for confessions, if there's "no
problem" with the riders, and they're really after the suppliers/
enablers? --D-y

Because it's more fun this way.

Has it left you seething in righteous indignation? Is it because you
think Davey would like it?

Just my rather convenient way of cooling off for the summer, and
avoiding some increasingly unconvincing semi-combovers. My hairline
would sorta play peek-a-boo with the remaining lock of hair growing from
the top of my forehead.

Very sad,

Perhaps its time to come out of denial and try and make some money
instead. I'm sure a LIVEDRUNK(tm) franchise selling steroid laced
cocktails at gyms and health clubs would make a fortune, especially where
the clientele comprises body builders.

I'd bet that there's more money in selling "organic" smoothie type
drinks mixed with amphetamines and other effective weight loss stuff
to the women, especially after tey all drop 10 or 15 pounds after a
month of pounding them, and then they're hooked.
Same theory slightly different product and target. Maybe go with the
ultimate gym "juice" bar.

Well, if you want organic, how about a milk bar like the one in A
Clockwork Orange? Can't get more holesome than that. 🙂

"Most of the data available is veterinary, and it
reveals a lot of bad reactions in rats. After taking
the drug, their hearts started to stiffen. So it seems
safe to predict that clenbuterol in high doses when
taken by humans increases the risk of strokes and heart
arrhythmia."

Invalid inference of stroke risk.

"Having messed with an user's natural metabolism, the
drugs seem to lose their efficacy almost as quickly as
they helped shift excess pounds. Jackie Warner has seen
the body backlash first-hand. "A friend on clen lost
weight, but after a while the drug stopped working,"
she says. "She was just eating tuna and told me: "If I
eat anything, I just blow up.'""

That's one of the things they took into account at least as early as
the eighties when the really "ripped" look started to be mandatory in
BB. Skipping the issue of drugs for a second, all the diets and pre-
contest training plans where based on cutting and cycling calories so
you had some, relatively, high calorie days to try and prevent the
body from going into conservation mode. The other keys were to add in
much more cardio twice a day, reduce the weights and time between
sets, and increase the reps to almost turn it into circuit training.
It worked as a package, but drugs made it massively easier too for
those who used them, they thought we were idiots for not going the
most effective route.

Now there would be an interesting study. --D-y

The study didn't do a followup to see if any of the damage was
permanent. Think about this for a minute - exercise causes increased
heart size and reduced heart rhythm. If you are a steady and fit
cyclist and you are admitted to the emergency room for ANY reason you
have to make sure they understand that you are an athlete and DO NOT
PRETEND THAT SOMEONE THAT RIDES more than 40 miles a week isn't an
athlete. The symptoms that they are looking for are increased heart
size and reduced heart rhythm in patients over 40 which indicates -
heart failure.

The point here being that saying that exercise damages organs etc.
means very little unless it is serious and permanent.

I was just going for a hint of legitimacy IRT "the health of the
athlete". I don't know of any long. studies but then I haven't looked,
either <g>.

Just a foot in the door is enough.

That's the problem - I was handed a bill for $40,000 because they put
me in the ICU when I showed up with breathing problems caused by
poison gas. They poo-pooed the gas problem I was telling them about
and put me on all sorts of machines because of the low heart rate.
Luckily the admitting physician had written down that I had told them
several times that my heart was good and that it was my breathing that
was a problem. My lawyer managed to get them to cancel the charges.
But he cost damned near what the hospital bill was.

In case you missed it - it is the non-perment and non-serious damage
that causes your heart to increase in size and volumn from exercise.
Everything has to be seen in perspective - even the idea that runners
actually damage themselves from running long or exceedingly hard
distances.

I've had a few medicos remark on what they heard through the
stethoscope. At least, back when I was a younger dog, out there
gathering mileage.

Runners do damage themselves, eventually. All of them. At least the
knees. That's why we bike, right? --D-y
