This is what Floyd Landis alleged. Can a doctor on this forum comment on this notion that some walk around with hormone levels only obtainable to most via doping? It would seem there is a natural human range.
Just to clear - What they found in Landis was synthetic testosterone. Not naturally occurring. Unless the test was tainted - there were many documented flaws in that particular lab.
I am not sure just why it is inconceivable to so many that these swims are clean. Popov's record was 8 years old. VDH's record was also set in 2000. It's about time they were broken. I admit it is interesting that these guys were not on everyone's radar. But maybe they are just free of all the attention and pressure the better know big guys face all the time.
Even the king of middle distance, Michael Phelps, swims a 48.42. Lots of guys are sprinting very fast.
But this is an Olympic year. Fast swims have been happening for some time.
If all these guys (and gals) are tainted - is there a new underground secret formula making the rounds? Is this the special sauce that goes undetected by all the drug tests? Did Dara sell this to Sullivan and Bernard? Maybe Gary Hall is the only one who doesn't know where to get it.
