That’s exactly why I stopped watching the Olympic Games. It all feels like a spectacle mixed with politics and money. At this level, I honestly find it hard to believe that world-class results are achieved without some form of performance enhancement. It often seems like the winners are not only the strongest athletes, but those whose teams are better at staying ahead of testing systems — or using substances that haven’t yet made it onto the banned list.
To me, it sometimes looks more like a battle of pharmaceutical labs than just a competition between athletes.
I’d rather spend that extra hour with my son than sit in front of the screen watching the show. It feels more meaningful, more real — and definitely more rewarding.
Good point well made @russia-btc
I read yesterday that two cross country skiers have been caught using banned substances.......Applying some sort of prohibited "lube" to their skis, banned because it might be "harmful to the environment" Fuck me it gets worse.
🤣🤣👍 AAAhhah ha - show of idiots!
Lol, there are some creams that keep your muscles warm, I know that from the time I was actively jogging but have never used any. For me it was just to stay healthy, so why complicate things.
But looks like cheating has no limits.
Those muscle warmers , like wintergreen in the Uk smell lovely
