Lance, tell them to go “off themselves”! better yet, just act as thought they don’t count!


8/31/2012


                The guardians, (USADA) of the “clean athletics for today” just passed judgment on Lance Armstrong the winner of 7 Tour de France bicycle races. He will be stripped of all his races winnings in the Tour de France races for “performance enhancement drugs (never verified by drug testing protocols in 12 years of competition) so where is your scientific data to prove without a doubt that Lance “cheated” by injecting a miracle substances that will make you a winner.  Bottom line, you cannot, nor he would have never completed 7 Tour wins without rejection if he had a bad test results. Here is a shocker! If you did not have a valid positive drug test on Lance in over 400 tests, then what about the other competitive bikers that also passed. You just validated the sport as corrupted. Note: several of Lance’s snitches are still competing or will be able after a short ban, as long as they rat out Lance.

                Lance Armstrong is a uniquely talented athletic who has one the highest recorded VO2 uptake, and critical work capacity, so he has the genetic profile to be where he was, and no drug can trump that. Beyond his physical prowess, he beat cancer and now successfully raises millions for cancer research and education. If he used drugs he they could not have been that present in his system or he would have failed drugs tests. Drugs or no drugs he is still going to win.

                I am old enough to be involved in both endurance and strength sports competition over the years, as an amateur, who could perform at competitive level. As a competitive athletic in ultra running(100 mile race time in less than 16:hours), I used  some drugs to keep inflammation in check for the hours of running  that allowed me to compete, not beyond my genetic capability, but to sustain my performance so my body will not breakdown anymore than necessary. The people I competed with, also did the same thing so, if one is “using” you can bet your sweet ass everyone else is also using.  Here is the big secret of sport performance……it genetics, plain and simple and no drug is going to make you the champion that day and beyond. The gifted athletics need at times drugs so they will not physically degrade. And can no longer compete due to physical breakdown of the body especially during training.  It’s all about pushing physical limits and still performs to get to the winner circle in one piece and recover.  

                Lance , tell them to stick-it where the sun don’t shine and at the end of the day they will never be able to replicate whatever you do in biking, or  sport you peruse. Tell the” snitches” and “haters” to eat shit and die as the only part of lance they have ever seen, is your back.

            My training today was a 1 min. work sets, 1 min rest sets, for one hour. (Warm up does not count)  20 min on bike rollers( speed work)

            The exercises used today were a little more stressful for a min, like kettlebell thrusters, heavy DB pressing, Kettlebell long cycle, heavy dumbbell row, and GHD sit-ups barbell deadlifts. Also put more emphasis on the striking of the heavy bag more forceful.  30 exercises in the routine. It’s like doing mega WOD

Yesterday I did 30 on bike turbo for intervals and 30 mins of barbell power cleans and DB squat cleans.

Ken, they need to publish their findings if they are going to strip him of his titles. Easy for me to say, but I wish he went through with the case. Eye witness testimony is only part of the the evidentiary process. The number of clean tests is an overwhelming amount of data in his favor.
