Same reason you get a ticket when a cop catches you go over the speed limit, even though everyone does it.

Doping in some way or other, but ALL of them have been doping.

Galen Rupp probably isn't

I forget what it's called but there's a way to put more oxygen into athletes blood before a race, blood doping I think.

Dr. Lame Norton is natty

You literally can't hide it, you have to bribe the anti-doping agency. The sport industry is incredibly shady.

Maybe he did something to piss them off? Maybe he got sick off their greed and their increasing demands on him. This happened to a Russian marathoner. She was bribing the Anti-doping agency and one day got sick of their increasing demands so they decided to out her for it. Lance must've done something to piss them off because there is no way he could have gone on so long without being caught unless he was bribing someone.

I'm sure you know red blood cells are what deliver oxygen to the muscles.

Blood doping increases the number of red blood cells in your body giving you that extra kick and aerobic ability. The downside is your blood becomes thick like dirty oil and you need to run it out or else you risk cardiac arrest and with an already low resting heart rate that's a real danger to athletes.

An alternative is EPO. This promotes the production of red blood cells but can also lead to cardiac arrest for the same reasons.

If an endurance athlete dies of heart failure it's probably because he was doping to some degree.

Galen Rupp's trainer is the infamous Alberto Salazar so it's safe to say he's doping.

Lance didn't have to bribe officials. UCI officials were covering for Lance because not only was he making a lot of people money (Nike, Trek, Specialized, Oakley) he was promoting the sport in the coveted North American market. The powerful few didn't want Lance to fall but then John Landis got caught and blew the whistle.

It's apparently easy to cheat the system since the means to cheat are years ahead of the systems designed to catch them.

Otherwise you fake a condition like asthma and get a TUE which will allow you to use a steroid to treat it. It's basically legalized cheating.

You'd be amazed how many athletes have asthma and need a prescribed steroid to let them compete.

steroids increase red blood cell production

more blood, more endurance

How come sprint runners have these bodybuilder tier physiques? Wouldn't all that excess torso bulk be useless hindrance?

The manlet in blue just beat Usain Bolt.

He is 5'9 and under 160 lbs

>>42406226
They need to be explosive, distance runners don't look like bodybuilders

>>42406351
Explosive legs, but why huge bis, traps?

>>42406372
Because your upper body support your running. Since sprinters can shit on conserving energy, they exaggerate the fuck out of the arm swing.
I gues.

>>42406372
Bis from the arm swing training, traps from power cleans to build explosiveness

Your body also functions as a whole. The stronger each muscle can contact when needed, the better. This is why most athletes train everything.

>>42403273
Michael Phelps was definitely juicing. Russia only got shit for it during the olympics cos "muh russia"

How to get those quads without steroids?

I'm an elite athlete (I get paid..barely) who has competed at televised events and can guarantee I'm natty but I'm also not known at all
But I get what you mean, I know a few guys who are far better than me in their respective sports who I strongly believe are natty
Whether the likes of Bolt or Phelps are is another story
I think most basketball, soccer and other highly skill dependent games would be

Bolt is old and it really wasn't a great time

>>42410352
Kek. You obviously don't know what corticosteroids do, Or that anabolic steroids do more than make your muscles bigger. Tons of athletes dope and use TUE's. But the only benifit steroids for asthma give is to alleviate inflamation from asthma.

>>42410540
>Or that anabolic steroids do more than make your muscles bigger.
Yeah, it makes your organs bigger, restricts blood flow, increases appetite for no reason etc.

Just lol if you think literally any endurance athlete (the ones that are most likely to use corticosteroids) are using anabolics (cyclists, cross-country skiers, footballers being notable examples)

>>42410566
Endurance athletes are going to be using stuff like erythropoietin. They arent using corticosteroids unless *spoiler* they actually have an inflammatory disease *spoiler*. The small performance enhancement that you get would be completely underminded by the slew of sides from high doses of something like prednisone.

ITT - below average losers convincing themselves anyone with talent is a cheat. This type of thread is why this is the worst "fitness" forum on the net.

Hi Bloho

>>42410739
In the big leagues, not only do they have talent but they're also roiding. You can be talented and not roid, but you won't be able to compete against those at the top that are reaping the benefits of both.

>>42410739
Another summerfag that's oblivious to the world of sports. It was hilarious when Lance Armstrong came out and admitted to PED usage. The delusional fan boys were crushed.
