Drug testing in amateurs?

You seem to be missing out the two very important words he said. "unusually ripped or has seriously too much energy"

UNUSUALLY.
Do you need a ****ing dictionary to understand what he meant by that? As in, muscles bulging out there sockets looking like this twat - http://www.isteroids.com/blog/wp-co...roid-abuse-causes-psychological-disorders.bmp

All of the above also applies to TOO MUCH ENERGY.

Theres a point where everyone gets gassed, if someone is throwing haymakers and 100 punch combinations for three rounds straight and is still breathing fine by the end of it, something is up. bye:hi:

 

They test in UK amateur boxing. The lad who won the Scottish heavyweight title in 2010 failed a test for nandrolene and was banned for life. Another who won in a lighter weight failed a test for cannabis and was banned for 2 years (so he turned pro)

 

Yeah in most countries (atleast developed ones anyways) they will test for national championships but it's simply not affordable or realistic to test at all the club shows and minor tournaments.

 

I was just playing devils advocate to his post, but I stopped bothering him. But YOUR POST is just ******ed! You have no idea what steroids do. They do not turn you into a ****en superman but in your dream world, they do. Honestly if you are REALLY good, 3 rounds is nothing!!! Oh did this come to your mind too- steroids do not have to be used to having bulging muscles??? Oh wait, nevermind I forgot steroids are only used by HULK type men. How bout you go read a book with your ignorant post.

 

right. well devil advocacy aside, it isn't like they test for only steroids. you should have a read through the world anti-doping agency banned substance list. there's a shitload of things banned, and for various performance enhancing reasons. I for example have sinusitis, and about 1/2 the things I can use to help me fly to an event on an airplane without risking blowing up an eardrum, I cannot take. I had to get it ok'd and signed off on to just take a few drops of Otrivin before jumping on board, so as not to worry about finding myself caught as some sort of drug cheat come fight time.

 

I understand. Thanks for sharing your experience! My training is getting much more serious so I doubt I will touch anything right now. I may drink when a fight is over but that's about it. I have weight to cut.
