The article left out some key things, like: were the leg extension sets standardized (x number of reps over y number of sets)? Without that kind of information, I'm not convinced the answer is metabolic and not the fact that these 60-78 year-olds can do more reps because their pain is buffered. Does the PED determination depend on whether it is metabolic or increased pain tolerance?

They are called NSAID's, but are they really "non steroidal"? Hmmm.

Motrin..... Wish it were true. Unfortunately, I sit at 186lbs., the same weight as in college..... only the skin sags, and the joints pop. I would weigh as much as the "evil one" if this were true. John Smith

Paul, Your little rant reminds me of Crash Davis (Kevin Costner) in Bull Durham when he was telling Susan Sarandon off ("I believe in long, slow, deep, wet kisses that go on for three days...")when she was trying to choose between him and Tim Robbins at the beginning of the movie. His little giggle when he walked out the door was hilarious! :lmao: I love that movie. PS If Advil is doping, I'm an idiot! :thhbbb:

Haven't the Smiths both admitted to using Motrin? April 10, 2008, NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - In a study of healthy older adults lifting weights regularly, for 3 months, taking recommended daily doses of ibuprofen (like that in Advil) or acetaminophen (like that in Tylenol) led to substantially greater increases over inactive placebo in quadriceps muscle mass and strength....

Ok lets get a few things straight: John; eats motrin like a kid eats candy, drinks starbucks "girly" coffee drinks before swims, gets drunk off one margarita, races in cheesy speedo legskins and weighs as much as my left leg so he can try and wear the same size jeans he did in high school (wussy). I; live for advil, drink red bull before swims, have my tolerance so high I don't get drunk on anything, prefer high-neck full length arena suits, prefer dim sum, great sushi, pizza of any kind, spicy indian food and anything else that can keep me in the "clydesdale" category.

Olympic level swimmers are breaking records left and right and it's either PEDs or LZR.Looking at the Attaboy/girl thread and I see we are breaking records left and right.I thought it was hardwork,but it turns out it was ibuprophen.:mooning:

Paul you have answered all my questions as to why I have continually been in the clydesdale division for the past decade. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time.... Thanks for your rant!!!!

Of course they are! Did you doubt it for a minute? I'm sure they've pre-ordered their LZRs as well. In fact, I know quite a few masters swimmers who have pre-ordered their Speedo Surfboard ... Maybe we'll see masters records start falling in the dozens soon too. :bolt:
