the only inection she ever got was some cortizone shots for her shoulder. you guys should read her biography. because you are all idiots.

You know why they can't prove that she has doped? She never did! I see this shit all the time. Lance Armstrong, etc, etc, etc... It's bull shit. These pro's get tested all the time.

What kind of swim meet is this?

She is amazing even though she uses inhaled steroids.

Asthma inhalers contain mainly corticosteroids, which are performance enhancing drugs just as injected steroids are. Exercise induced asthma, mainly caused by hypocapnea, is an excuse to use such medications. The Bohr effect was explained 90 years ago and Buteyko Therapy 50 years ago, and is being accepted in Australia and Britain, but the drug companies are stronger in the US. Otherwise inhalers, which are now being linked to long-term use death, would be banned as well.

NO! She don't take that stuff! she just gets two people to help her stretch ! so she won't get hurt . She needs to just stretch more than everyone else

She is amazing. She may not have "juiced." She may have done some DHEA injections and B-12 shots for energy and hormonal replacement. Many women take oral DHEA and even the injectable form is legal thru a doctor's care. She may even have done small doses of Serostim HGH or IGF-1 (powerful but undetectable HGH) for 6 weeks to heal injuries. I doubt she did actual steroids like Nandralone or Winstrol as they are easy to detect. However, there are forms of HGH that just can't be detected for now.

Asthma inhalers only provide normal lung capacity to those who don't have it. If they provided an unfair advantage, they would be banned.
