One reason why so many asthmatics swim is because we are told it is good for our lungs. It might be. Inhalers are designed to calm tightened lung airways. If the airway isn't tight the inhaler isn't going to do much. There are far more over the counter products being used that change once the structure once they enter the body to help develop muscles that are far more abused. The little effect a nonasthmatic is going to get from a few puffs from an inhaler is nothing compared to the the benefits received with muscle growth using many over the counter product. This argument is really off of the wall. You are helping to promote a myth that at its base is hateful. The hatefulness is so nicely hidden because people argue that there just might be. the argument must not be listened to because it is on very silly ground.
I get so mad listening to so many blah blah blah about the only way to really promote improvement is through practice, practice, practice. Then to hear people Blah blah blah about asthma drugs helping people. Stop this absolute silliness. If you are feeling any 'buzz" after you take a puff of an inhaler, you are feeling your heart beat irregularly. How is that to help your swimming? In reality, your heart is no longer pumping blood effectively nor efficiently.
Damn! I thought I was being subtle enough to not get "called out" but Craig caught it. So let me be perfectly clear.
I HATE ALL WIMPY, WHINY, WEAK, CHEATING, LOSER ASTHMATICS because they can legally use banned substances and beat me in the 50 free at a masters meet.
Your a bright guy Craig...thanks for spotting this and holding me accountable for being so HATEFUL.
