| Topic | Lol, so Klokov and 5 other russian weightlifters retroactively popped for PEDs |

To clarify, PEDs don't magically give you muscles and the effect is not so great that you can just take some and then be an elite athlete. It turns out the effect is relatively small and also that not everyone responds to them - i.e. you need to be genetically gifted for responding well to steroids also. It's just that a "relatively small" performance enhancement of like 10% is a colossal difference at that level. The issue becomes more nuanced when you have this situation: say you're a gifted athlete, you do everything right, you nail your training, nutrition, you really want the success...but every single one of your peers has all of those qualities AND they are taking gear that gives them 10% over you...you don't stand a chance. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg ...
