From age 35 to age 38 I was on an incredible anti-aging program with the Cenegenics Medical Institute in Las Vegas. I was unable to afford Hgh, but I was on Testosterone Cypionate. It most definitely had an impact on my strength, but was never prescribed in doses that exceed what is considered normal in a male human being in his 20s. Nor was I prescribed my much desired and requested Deca-durabolin. :( In the end, I was a 37 yr old with 20 yr old testosterone levels which I am sure would be considered a legal genetic gift in an olympic drug test.
My concern is that it is a shame that athletes can't say "Yes, I am on a hormone replacement therapy program, I love it, and if you are over 25 you should look into it too!" I think the athletes justifiably fear that making such a statement will only cause the media to blow it out of proportion and label it as doping. Ah well, at least inspired fans will increase their belief in their own abilities and go after their dreams. Will they succeed? In my opinion, you succeed the minute get up off the couch and take a single step toward a dream. What do you think about all this? Is it fair to the younger athletes? Is it ethical to say "I'm not taking anything" to fans? What a tough position to be in for an athlete especially since the general population thinks doping instantly makes a super athlete vs an indescribable amount of heart and hard work. If while I was on Cypionate I had competed in anything, it would have only put my on a level playing field hormonally. That wouldn't have even guaranteed me a winning streak in my hometown.
if masters drug tested you probably would have tested positive
for an anabolic steriod
there's probably more masters swimmers than you think who are taking HGH and testosterone from clinics like Cenegenics and if they aren't breaking USMS and FINA records who cares
