Alexander Povetkin took the banned PEDS to either ...

Oh god even the moderator is a moron. Does nobody know wtf this medicine is used for? Jesus H Christ surrounded by morons.

 

Yes, they are. :yep

 

is it hard being this re****ed? Literally a 15 second Google search disproved everything you're spewing. Can we get a ban on everyone too re****ed to Google anything before posting? atsch

 

That dude is on the god damn SAUCE

 

"Meldonium was added to the World Anti-Doping Agency’s banned substance list in January, and since then, over 170 athletes have tested positive, with 40-plus coming from Russia. The drug aids in carrying more oxygen to muscle tissue and would help keep an endurance athlete fresh."

Let's compare this to blood doping.

"Blood doping is the practice of boosting the number of red blood cells in the bloodstream in order to enhance athletic performance. Because such blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the muscles, a higher concentration in the blood can improve an athlete's aerobic capacity (VO2 max) and endurance."

Troubling that Povetkin has a PED in his system.

 

The substance was only banned in January, 1st. His team's claim that he used it in September only and given his heart condition, it could be a simple mistake on his part. The drug only increases stamina and doesn't really aid weight or building muscle tissue?

 

Little evidence Meldonium increases performance, which is why it has never been banned until now (political reasons), manufactured in the 1970's (in Latvia, a NATO ally) atsch

Boxers have died in the ring, son. Cheating in a sport like this one is an even more profoundly heinous transgression.

 

I'm quite certain that The Professor knows you're wasting your time posting on that alt, young grasshopper.
