I don't see something like blood doping helping much....certainly not at the top levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athletes are often drug tested. It's conceivable that certain substances can increase alertness, endurance, oxygen utilization, etc... all things that could provide an advantage in this activity.

Me either, but I think this is all just speculation anyways. I don't see anything helping either. Healthy diets maybe, but no substances.

Haha absolutely not. There's more of a concern for just giving these kids enough to eat than them doping up for band. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
