Was linked to this couple year old video of John Tomac and turns out among many topics, he has a few anecdotes about drugs in cycling and EPO in particular. Anyway, mentions his view on when he felt EPO was already influencing road racing he was involved in. Those specific comments are around...

And others that are STILL prepared to moan on and on about Armstrong's transgressions from 15-20 years ago every time there's a news article about him. Also equally ready to ball-wash for their own hero as well. Different strokes for different folks.

Re: Re: The confusion may have stemmed from one of your quotations on the previous page - the quotation function made it look like Sam's words were attributed to you. Reading back far enough, one can see it was Sam's words, not yours, but might not be evident to someone not reading back far...

I’m not sure what a discrepancy would mean and didn’t make any suggestions that it would indicate anything nefarious – only that it could be an area of discussion should it have existed. I was only suggesting that maybe a large discrepancy is an example of a scenario that might fuel some...

I could be wrong, but I wonder if people might be suggesting that if there was a drastically different type of heart rate response in the testing vs the leaked heart rate data - that that might be of interest. If the testing showed heart rate data upwards of 185 or something like that as an...

Just bumping these questions since we've had some recent participation by acoggan, alex, tucker, merckx. Any of you have any thoughts on the body composition questions above?

Re: What does peaking properly look like? What are the actual steps involved in that?

Re: Re: Froome/Sky notes: Bilharzia which uncharacteristically went undiagnosed and then not properly treated for considerable amount of time, making Froome an outlier in this area and not aligning with a team driven by marginal gains, rigorous sports science and close monitoring of their...
