Good vid on barbell shrugged about it (you tube).

They get tested twice per year.

must be copping a hiding

Thanks mate.

Likely its copping a hiding from CF's legal team actually. They're meant to be quite vicious.

“In 2014, CrossFit will expand out-of-competition (unannounced) drug testing. This means that any registered CrossFit competitor can be tested at any time during the year for any reason.” -games.crossfit.com
In 2014, as in previous years, all tests will be conducted by WADA staff in accredited facilities.'

yes, but who decides tests?

 

[High Road]

Is there a better link? I can't seem to enlarge the mirror big enough to read it

 

[Neddysmith]

Who would have thought.....drugs in sport....

Remember when I said testosterone suspension, hgh and oral steroids would be the best way to beat a test?

 

[spartacus]

yes, and remember when I said it is increasingly harder to beat the testosterone test.

That is why 1225 athletes got caught on test in 2012.

 

[Goosey]

I keep thinking how incredibly stupid and irresponsible it is that people continue to openly discuss taking illegal drugs on a public forum.

Nothing personal....

for suspension?

 

[spartacus]

they don't test for test suspension.

They look for T/E ratio 4-1 or higher, and do blood tests for esters and other signs.

maybe you need to read what I posted again

 

[spartacus]

maybe you need to stop pretending you know how to beat drug tests.

You don't.

 

[lkt004]

Even at IOC level the tests get beaten all the time, the tests are basic and can only pick up known drugs, lots more money in illicit chemistry than there is in licit chemistry.

Not really wanting to discuss it, but knowing the chemistry behind the tests is not that hard, and a good chemist should be able to work out ways around it.

 

[spartacus]

ok, but top athletes who earn millions, surround themselves with so-called experts, and still get caught.

It is indeed getting harder to cheat.

 

[lkt004]

Assuming they use HPLC-MS, which cannot pick up identify previously unknown compounds, they don't have the funding to investigate EVERY compound it picks up, just the ones they are testing for or are in their database.

Sure, it's hard, and getting harder, but there ARE ways to beat it, just depends on how much you want to pay and how big of a risk you are willing to take. Did Lance Armstrong test positive once?

 

[spartacus]

jury out on Armstrong; accused by some of having tested positive once, but suggested there was a cover up.

Spartacus how do you test against testosterone suspension?
