If it is of benefit to attack, attack. If it isn't, then don't. Very black and white for everybody to understand. The only reason Aru was neutralised was because of Porte who is BFFs with froome. Porte is an idiot. If it was reversed i would bet money Froome wouldn't have neutralised the...

Re: .......

FWIW My Hematocrit flew up initially but over time came back down to it's normal level which surprised me as the Docs want you to give blood a few times a year to control it to reduce cardiac risk. I am sitting at low-mid 40s and by that you would never pick i was doing something and i have been...

Proof of what? Riders in the hard doping era were tapping high numbers. Bloodpassport are under 50 and here people have posted data from riders in the low to mid 40s in grand tours. Or is that not correct and you say riders now are well over the 50 limit?

Dosages are small. Pros are not.dropping like flies. Areas outside cycling that involve drug use as pretty much standard have guys taking 1-2 grams/wk. Pros used to use a maximum of 200mg/wk Deca at best. Even test no more than 250mg/wk required. The risk was when they boosted haematocrit to...

Re: Mechanical doping: first rider caught You are right that perception can be hit or miss. When i was off the bike for almost 6 months i rocked up and crushed my old group. To them it looked like everything was dandy and i must have just trained hard. However from my view i just did a climb...

Re: Re: Problem is with this stuff is they are targeting a paid athlete so surely they need to tread carefully? I'm not sure what data you guys want to see but for me it gets pretty alienesque when you factor in i am untrained. I have seen numbers put on here of only a few percent but the...

Thanks for all the data and comments, very insightful. At the end of the day the guy and those around him lied for over a decade. You can't trust the data because it's leading you to a different result to what he achieved in the real world. Therefore the data is bad, especially his claimed race...

You can easily get Lance's weight lower. My 68kg numbers uses the same BMI that Jan Ullrich had (21.7) yet Lance was skeletal in comparison to 'Big Jan Ullrich'. Today's pros are high 19s but they are painfully thin so use a BMI of 20.5 and it spits out a weight of 65kg. His pre weight loss...

The bodyweights stated for Lance are crazy. Maybe i'd believe it as a fat offseason weight but not a race weight. Ben Johnson, same height, fatter than Lance here at 79kg. Lance would be in the region of 68kg race weight. If you use 68kg as his weight how do all your calculations look?

So touchy? You forgot to add Tren on your list. Forget cutting steroids, it's all the same thing. You swap compounds for when you are doing contest prep, not when you are cycling. Just wondering have you juiced before or been around in those circles within sport or do you hold a masters in...

Yes this thread is focused on the top handful so the line in the sand relates to their performances. I think it's obvious they are not assessing doping status accurately when 'clean' riders are beating or matching the top known doped riders times. A top GT clean rider is not going to come...

This is the part i never understand. Why is it that we should set aside everything we 'do' know in case an event arises that we have never seen before?..... 7 billion people on the planet yet we can't draw a line in the sand because the 7,000,000,001 person born could be 0.5% better than...

Wrong. Hit your natural muscle size peak, go on AAS and get bigger. Stop training for years, shrink back down, go back to training clean and you will reach a size larger than your original natural peak. Also if you choose to go back on AAS you will find you need less than previously to reach...
