Broc, your troubles are over!
And leads you to believe the narrative that the producer wants you to believe?
I personally believe that a substance that gives you the ability to focus or focus more clearly
makes you ride better. To be more blunt, if it makes you better/faster that's an advantage.
If it doesn't make you better/faster why would you take it?
What about the guy that has a disadvantage of smaller muscles, he gets an RX for HGH shots.
He now has a better suited body that he can now ride faster. Is that an advantage? So the people
that say it's OK to stimulate the brain to be better but not stimulate the muscles to be better? I say
Hmmm. And doctors are not the holy grail just because they are doctors. They might in fact be part
of the problem because they have enough knowledge to enhance/fix a problem with chemicals.
It's not an easy answer but by the time they (the riders) get to that level you'd think they would do some research
about the rules of their career choice. You'd think that there is an actual list of banned substances.
Just think out loud here,
A common salve you use on a minor cut.
cheers
issuing TUEs for ANYONE whether or not they have actual ADD is a pretty slippery slope. Drugs can effect everyone differently and in the same way ADD has different levels of severity. How do we know that even someone with say mild ADD with the use of Adderall won't bring their cognitive ability above the baseline of a "clean" person. Its impossible to know. I'm thinking out loud and may be a bit harsh but maybe in the same way that I don't have the talent to ride pro mx maybe if you have severe ADD which needs a drugs maybe you don't have the tools to be a Pro Athlete either. We all have limits keeping us from our goals whether its lack of talent, attitude, body type or cognitive abilities. The whole reason people watch sports is to see people who are suited to these disciplines do amazing things they can't do themselves.
On a somewhat related note I found it interesting that everyone including Matthes thinks Anderson should be able to get medicine for altitude. If his body won't let him compete at altitude thats too bad! He loses points because he isn't able to cope! He's from New Mexico which I assume is hot. So if lets say Rollerball comes down from Canada and is severely affected by heat at Gatorback does he get to take something performance enhancing to improve his ability to cope? Where does it end? As far as Anderson goes and his altitude sickness have they thought about maybe training somewhere that is at altitude??? Isn't that part of the reason that guys train in Florida is so they can stand the heat in the same way?
yes their rules state that a rider "should" thoroughly read and understand what is in the product, but reading that much detail it can be easy to miss a detail or even miss something that is on the laundry list of banned substances.
Secondly, the substance he was popped for has been out of use for a long time, and at best would be difficult to find and not worth the danger of popping hot when there are newer substances that are legal that can be used.
No it hasn't. It is buyable today. It can be bought right now as 1,3 or 1,4 versions of "DMAA" or even the newer 1,5 and 1,6 versions of DMHA. Which are just Heptane and Hexane versions with different amounts of carbon molecules.
