  • Not really. Testing for anabolic steroids, human growth hormone, and EPO would be sufficient. Random testing would not be cost prohibitive, and it might serve as a deterrent. i think masters (of all sports not just swimming) should help set the example for elite and kids to NOT dope. and do it by top 3 + random and all record breakers. part of the record submittial is your test when someone at age 45 goes as fast as they did at 22.....in the 200 fly/400im/800free.....yeah right
