Lance Armstrong was denying using doping products for years. However he was accused of administering prohibited preparations many times, he continued to claim that he never applied forbidden preparations. Even when the USADA proved that the cyclist doped, he lied about doping. But ultimately, Lance Armstrong decided to admit to using EPO, testosterone and blood transfusions.
However many sportspersons applied performance-enhancing drugs and avoided detection successfully, there was anything unusual in the doping case of the legendary American cyclist. Lance Armstrong achieved great success in sports. He won Tour de France races 7 consecutive times. He won also some other awards. The American cyclist got worldwide success. Although he submitted to thousands drug tests, he never tested positive for any banned medication.
Undoubtedly, Lance Armstrong is not the only sportsperson who has doped. Sportspersons have used forbidden preparations during past years. They continue to take steroids and other related drugs today. And professional athletes will apply them in future. Application of anabolic steroids and other doping products is spread in professional sports. Almost each athlete takes banned products. While certain sportspersons test positive for prohibited products and get bans, others avoid detection.
When it comes to the attitude to Lance Armstrong’s doping, it’s mainly negative. Many individuals got essential anger, when the legendary cyclist admitted to taking EPO, the steroid testosterone and blood transfusions. A lot of individuals believed in him. They thought that Lance Armstrong was “clean”. That’s why their disappointment was great.
And what do you think about “clean” sports? Anti-doping agencies should think about this issue. While anti-doping officers state that they have sophisticated tests to combat doping in sports, a lot of sportspersons administer anabolic steroids and/or other related medicines and remain undetectable.
While Lance Armstrong has admitted to using banned preparations, anti-doping officials should realize that their policies are inappropriate.
