Lance Armstrong / Test question

[simbh]

Another thing that always amazes me is this . I remember that thread(poll) on Triple H , saying , Do you think Triple H juices ? There was a pretty big concensus on he does among the IM readers. For me , Lance is to endurance drugs as Triple H is to Steroids.

Let me explain : Because Steroids give obvious enhance physical appearance , people tend to say easily someone will juice. This is the complete opposite of endurance enhance drug (epo for example). If someone is on those kind of drugs , well those drugs help is overall cardio vascular performance but will have little to no effects on his physical appearance. This is why , a lot of people are more likely to say that someone like lance is 100% clean and someone like Triple H would be 95% likely to juice.

Tell me MTN WARRIOR , when you voted on that poll (if you voted if you didn't) what did you pick ?

Correction , his worst oppenent has been Yan Ulrich which is not french but german ... The French have never done that great on le tour de france .

what the hell? it's Jan Ulrich and i know he's German (i never said he was french), i wouldnt consider him his worst opponent. in the last tour Armstrong was tested more by one of Jan Ulrich's teammates than by Jan. and most of all by a spaniard. And anyone who follows the tour knows the french consider it sacred and dont want an American winning. oh yea it was a french guy who co-held the record for most wins bernard hinault (5) albiet not consecutively and a frenchman has one the race 35 times since the race started.

I remember when Greg Lemond was all the rage.

If it weren't for the U.S. the frenchies would be speaking German...

I didnt vote. My point is, just because someone is good, doesnt make them a juicer. If that is so, that means anyone who has ever done good is a juicer, Babe Ruth to Wayne Gretzky. That is an asinine belief. If you were ever an althete or in a job where physical performance was what you were paid for, then you would understand what dedication and love for a sport or a belief is that could give you the drive to excel. Maybe you have not been in that position. I dont know what you have done, but that would be my uneducated guess, just like it is your uneducated guess that Lance juices.

I doubt lance does anything illegal to enhance his performance. I can only assume that he is very fond of life after beating cancer. I doubt he would do anything to put his health in danger.

Lance wins because he trains harder than anybody out there.he trains solely for the tour de france while other riders will train for all the other races as well. Lance is driven more by competition than by any other athelete ive seen

Lance

Lance was a hero way before he lost his "left nut" or had surgery to remove cancer from his left testicle that had a tumor on it the size of a tangerine. Now where's the science???

I was just thinking about this... Lance only has one nut, so his Test production is probably shot naturally, right? But he keeps winning the Tour, meaning he has to have a ton of manliness in his loins, though where does it come from--Doctor administered test? If so, how is that legal in his sport and by the IOC?

Or, since he has only one nut does he produce more estrogen and that's what gives him the endurance, as science has told us women will soon outdo men in the marathon?
