Question

Do you think usian bolts ground breaking sprints can be mainly attributed to steroids?

Answer 1

I'll say mainly attributed with hard work, dedication, sacrifice, and determination.  

Answer 2

The dude is a freak of nature, not science.  

Answer 3

There is some controversy regarding possible steroid use. Jamaica does not have a steroid detection program like most countries do. Not long ago, a steroid supplier was arrested and he did admit to knowledge that steroids had been supplied to the Jamaican team.

Regardless, Bolt should be considered innocent unless sufficient evidence proves otherwise.

Answer 4

Innocent until proven guilty.

Jamaican have had fast runners for a long time.

Answer 5

Doubt it, steroids 'bulk' you up with muscle. The guy is wiry [ almost skinny ! ] compared to most sprinters. We shouldn't be so cynical as to assume every great sportsman is on drugs.

Answer 6

I heard he has been tested 11 times in the last 6 months and passed every time?  That isn't good news for Americans, what excuse can they use now?!

Answer 7

If he was on roids, it would be in the headlines by now. So I think no.

Answer 8

we'll just have to wait and see.

Answer 9

Absolutely they are on Roids,  those who think that a sprinter doesn't want the muscle bulk are naive and ignorant.  Sprinting is an explosive event large powerful muscles are required.  But it is the time improvements that we see, plus the lack of testing that make me think they are are.  The woman who won the 400m IH hurdles improved her time by .86 seconds that is a huge improvement.  All of them bested their personal records by around .5 seconds.  Not to mention they were getting their butts beat all of last year and now they are winning by 10 meters.  I am not buying it.  

Answer 10

i dont think so. steroids are used to bulk up, and i dont think sprinters would want/need that extra muscle mass.

Answer 11

At that level of competition most(if not all) of them are on drugs, so its not really an advantage. Taking drugs has become an art, there are so many masking agents and ways to cycle the drugs and not get caught.

Answer 12

People from nations with greater hard ship will all ways work much much

harder than folks from countries of the land of opportunities, now that's a  legal drug and it has all ways work and produces  great rewards.

Sorry no steroids.
