Saltin basically saying Kristen Skjeldal must have been microdosing EPO.
Here he is talking about the values published by Dagbladet in 2001:

Somehow I doubt bringing Skjeldal into it will make the Norwegian side calm down.
Here he is talking about the values published by Dagbladet in 2001:
- Kristen Kjeldal (sic) would have needed to be at 3000 meters above sea level in five weeks and then take the test at that height to get to the values. But no one can train at that height.
- If you combine these mens values, with the normal values - it is well above the normal default values. I doubt that's normal values. It is well above 14.5 to 15 who had been normal.
- They've probably done something. It has, I think so.
What is it they have done?
- The easiest is the low-dose EPO. At that time they had just learned how to do.
- Facing one there on 17 to 17.5, up to 18 as some have, then it is manipulated in some way, says Saltin.
