Is it just me or does the Russian and French skaters look more muscular and stronger looking than the American skaters?

Well, I am sure they eat better..........most of our competitors are either 12 years old or anorexic.......but then, the commies are good with steriods too, I hear.........I think you just notice a 'woman' skating.....not a child!! best wishes

Only problem is that steroids would cause a woman to look more manly as I saw this happen on a documentary about Communist era German athletes in the Olympics. One swimmer had taken steroids since she was nine, and now into her forties she looks and sounds like a man! I guess it's better nutrition and perhaps some weight training which makes them look so strong these days.
