Be careful!

Taking BP drugs when you have normal or low pressure can kill you.

BP drugs are a favourite among successful suicides - induces sleep, coma and death by heart failure. I've seen the reports.

Stay away - riding a bike faster isn't worth playing with your life.

I've got no intention whatsoever of taking anything for my BP other than a drug prescribed by my doctor, just wish I didn't have to take any drugs.

I know that - didn't mean your good self. I was just posting in general to any young or Masters hotshot that thinks they may be onto something. :)

interesting^

either way, for Wiggins and Froome we can be pretty darn sure that their success on the road isn't down to the use of legal substances.
If it were, several things would remain unexplained, including but not limited to:
- Wiggins' aggressive response to doping questions
- Wiggins' anomalous blood values in 2009 for which JV had to pull out the good old calibration error excuse
- Wiggins' love for Lance and disregard for whistleblowers
- Froome's need to invent diseases
- Froome's retroactive TUE
- Froome's love for Vino

ow, most effing definitely.

Still: i guess one might be tempted to argue that, hypothetically, their transformation may have been down to the discovery and use of strictly legal substances, such as the one described by the OP, or by Danielovchick above. I would then counterargue that such a hypothesis would leave the above six points totally unaccounted for.

Good point. But as far as legal substances go, their colleagues had the same access, but only those two went from zero to hero* a bit late in the day.

* I realize that's a bit hyperbolic - but only a bit.
