Do you reflect floyd landis is one framed?
Question:i think the french are framin him so he acquire banned from cycling to save any more americans from winnin the tour de france if he is banned from 2 to 4 yrs his carrer is over than a european can win the tour possibly even a frenchman get my drift?
Answers:
READ THIS ... I initially thought he be guilty, but now I do not know.
The certainty is, adding testosterone to your system for sooner or later does not help your recitation.
In order for the "cheating drugs" to work (testosterone, HGH, steroids), you own to take them regularly for at most minuscule 2 weeks. These drugs are NOT an energy source. Their presence contained by your system helps you build stamina and persistence. They need to be continuously added to your system over a long extent of time (a couple of weeks) in charge for their beneficial affect to be experienced.
The above is common culture in the world of select athletes.
So how come Landis passed all the test, except for one day? There is no rationale why he would have taken extra testosterone for basically one day.
I suggest it's total BS!!
absolutely not a soul knows the answer to your cross-question other than Floyd himself, his trainer and the french dudes who are framing him.
What almost previous urine samples from previous years?
I suggest, Lance got clobbered for something he did surrounded by 1999, but the results came up within 2004.
There has to be a previous urine taster to vindicate Floyd.
i dont think that he is man framed but i do think that they adjectives dope. i guess that it is one thing to dope and win and another to dope and lose.
The single way he could be framed is if someone slipped him something prevented, or if the sample be tampered beside.
I think it's possible, but unlikely.
The Anti-doping agency that have reviewed the samples is independant.
He's guilty... and freshly won't admit it. Most athletes when they're caught don't grant it.
he is guilty
If Landis would stick to one story, I'd be more inclined to believe him.
Hmmm, I would say that if he really did give somebody a lift performance enhancing drugs, consequently it's his own fault. No one contained by any sports should take anything approaching that. It's cheating. But if the guy didn't take anything, afterwards yeah. He's just be framed.
landis is lying and he did dope
I honestly don't think he's man framed. They tested him in the initiation and his testosterone was fine. They try-out all throughout the Tour and he be passing adjectives of them until his injury. And on interviews when asked questions on doping he looks away. But that's purely my opinion.
Didn't they try indistinguishable *&^# with Lance (the god) Armstrong?
I surmise they're just green with envy that we Americans are better, stronger, faster and have buns to die for...
SO THERE! EAT PUDDING FRENCH INFIDELS!
positively not, he was astern and took something to give himself a boost contained by the last leg of the see. he just get caught
yup they couldnt ban spar so they going after floyd
What about the previous sample?? Even he stated that he had to bestow at least 8 sample before/during the race. If it take weeks to get into the blood system -- how come it merely came out 'after' he won. Yes, he is anyone framed.
I can't see someone who's a Mennonite taking any kind of drugs, even discomfort relievers, and if you've ever seen interviews near Landis' mother, you'll realize that his family is Mennonite. He's categorically being framed.
He is any being framed, or a huge con artist.
Why is it so hard to believe that he could be lying. No man have that much testosterone.
I don't think he is self framed. But I don't think that he took any steroids any. I really do think he only just has glorious testosterone levels. Or it may be that the French hold low levels and adjectives Americans have large levels compared to them (just fooling around, in overnight case any one thinks I am human being serious). But I don't think this is a conspiracy against him or America as a intact, just a unpromising situation that happened as constituent of chance.
it's possible he's individual framed, what we need is an independent lab to analyze the sample. unfortunately within are only a few experts contained by the world that can do this kind of analysis.
surrounded by response to the above answerer, the labs can tell the difference between synthetic and instinctive testosterone. synthetic testosterone is derived from plants (like soybeans) and has a slightly different chemical structure than the one produced within our bodies. it's not just that landis have high level of the hormone, it was illustrious levels of the artificial one.
more probable he was desperate to win and approved to take something, possibly he was drunk and wasn't thinking straight. somebody must know if he have some synthetic testosterone around, this kind of item is not easy to skin. his best bet now is a short time ago to confess and say he be under like mad of pressure and apologize.
He got busted! Whether intentionally taking it or unknowingly he still was taking it. Pay the piper!
And to the party who responded that hes a Mennonite so he could never take it!
Your kid right? You need to come out of your little world and unify the rest of us. He is a competitor and no matter what his belief he still requests to win! He obviously needed a creep over his competition so he made a decision and know he have to live with it!
Unfortunately, I suggest he's guilty. That doesn't mean I resembling, respect, or trust the French. I just ponder he'd be more adamant nearly finding the truth if he hadn't done it.
I am clueless to the truth in this situation, but I'll detail you this: knowing full well the consequences of taking production enhancing drugs, one would have to be a complete fool to do it surrounded by full view of probably the world's largest audience!! Framed or not, Floyd Landis will have to live near the decision for the rest of his existence!
he could be but probably not because i dont think they would risk doing that. if he get caught he would be baned but if they got caught framing someone they would earnings a heavy price.
He get caught, now he should be a man and adopt the consequences.
NO -- face it, he's guilty;why the conspiracy argument? You don't want to believe it, Floyd is no Lance, I can see the French trying to derail Lance, he broke every record likely and silenced his critics 7 years in a row. This make a good cover story for Floyd, but this is the weakest excuse since the fabricate accusation of Zidane's mother and sister mortal called terrorists by Materrazi. This is what cowards do they don't adopt resposibly for their actions. I bet you believe Barry Bonds used steriods even though he have never tested for steriods. So how do you justify or reconciled these 2 reaction to the same scenario.
Only Floyd know for sure, but consider the following:
1. Steroid/testosterone use is one of the easiest drugs to detect, so why would Floyd take it?
2. Testosterone is a hormone, synthetic or not, and would show up for 2-3 days after taking it, not merely one. Why didn't he test positive on Stage 18 or 19?
3. During the Tour, you will sometimes hear of riders that be ejected from the race for carrying out tests positive the day formerly. If that's how doping is usually handled, why did the French keep on a week after "finding" testosterone in his blood?
4. Here's the big sound out: how many French race handled Floyd's blood sample before "finding" synthetic testosterone? This ties surrounded by with the previous query, seeing that it took longer than usual, without explanation, to summons Floyd of doping. Why is that?
Basically, until blood tests for athletes work as proficiently and effectively as a breathalyzer screens for alcohol, in attendance are FAR too many ways for a example to be tampered next to or mistakes to be made.
He is definitely anyone framed. There would be no reason for him to embezzle testorone over one day's time. It would do no good. He tested verbs before and after that one fruitless test. SOMEBODY JACKED WITH HIS SAMPLE!
not guilty

I enjoy 100 mile bike ride June 2. how several days rest beforehand?
Question:i train 22 miles a day, three days on, sooner or later off. Should i rise and fall my training?
Answers:
both good answers so far, You do entail to be doing longer rides, 22-50 is fine for during the week but on your day past its sell-by date of work you need to long some miles. I would not recommend going into a 100 miler short having gone at lowest 75 a couple times. Another thing to consider is if you are doing this ride near friends or solo. It's been my experience that you never complete a group 100 miler as nifty as you think you will (or could by yourself). It seem that someone always have to stop, at every rest stop somebody else has to pee or have a flat or needs wet or..So be prepared to spend more time on the course then you expect. As far as a taper, I agree you do not want too much rest the week past, this will leave you stale. General rule for a worthy taper, cut back duration by 1/2 cut stern frequency by 1/4 and put intensity where you expect to ride the event at. So roughly if your training 5 days a week for a total of 200 miles the concluding week should be around 3 days and 100 miles.(just an example not actual training recommendation) you can even ride a LITTLE faster then you plan to ride contained by the event so it feels comfortable when you start the event. Ride safe and virtuous luck
If you have be training in this bearing, you are very prepared to do a 22 mile bike ride. You probably hold the stamina to ride twice that distance. Your body will likely cry surrounded by agony over 100 miles. That's a very long distance.
Another poster have asked about preparing for a 100km ride around duplicate time. Over the next 4 weeks you should increase your on a daily basis ride gradually to at lowest possible 60 miles. One day sour a week is plenty as cycling does not "pound" your body.
About a week before your ride, bring out and go 80-100 miles. Take the subsequent day past its sell-by date then stir back to more average length rides. Make sure you get out in attendance and do a moderate ride the day formerly. Good luck.
I would begin to up the miles right away. I would work up to a 50 or 60 mile long weekend ride. Rule of thumb is that you can unanimously manage nearly twice as long as your routine long ride.
Regarding rest beforehand, I would not rest the day previously. I would ride a normal week but do not do any soaring intensity miles. I find that legs become stale after a rest day. You don't want this notion on century day.
You really stipulation to get out and do a couple _much_ longer rides in the past the century. Sometime between now and two weeks past the event you need to at tiniest _try_ to ride 100 miles. Target this ride for the weekend of may 19/20. Plan the 100 miles on sat or sun, after do your 22 miles on the other day.
22 miles a daylight during the week to fit your work/life schedule is fine, but you should be riding very well over 50 miles on each weekend morning, a minimum of 100 miles combined for sat/sun.
After you do this 'test' 100 miler, go spinal column to your routine of 22 miles rides during the week, and do the 50+ milers on the next weekend. The week previously the _real_ century, ride about one hour a afternoon, at a moderate pace. Keep your heart rate within the low aerobic zone (60-70%).
Don't forget to eat lots of carbohydrates surrounded by the few days before the century - pasta for three night. Bring plenty of food on the ride. Don't be afraid of foods with a superior fat content.
Fat is notably underrated as a fuel source. The problem beside carbohydrate based sources is that inexperienced riders tend to overdo it, and this can front to an insulin imbalance, which will organize to fatigue. For extended activity contained by an aerobic zone - which your century qualifies as - you necessitate a more balanced approach to nutrition, to some extent than the high carbohydrate diet racers use.
The preceding two paragraph may sound contradictory, but they are not.
Eating lots 'o carbs within the days before the event will top bad your glycogen stores for those short intense efforts you might encounter approaching a small climb, but a good portion of it will be converted to round. Fat is what you will be burning for most of this event.
Here's an anecdote: After racing season I commonly go out for long MTB rides near my club, 3-4 hours worth. I would stop at McDonalds on the way to the ride, enjoy a baconeggcheese biscuit and hash browns, a carton of whole milk and a significant orange liquid. At the beginning of the ride, I'm filling behind the group, especially on the climbs. This be partially intentional since I didn't munch through for intensity, but endurance. I don't want to take home myself barf. Then, they start to get hungry. After two hours, the food is within my system, fueling a steady high aerobic challenge. The other guys are struggling and I'm riding away from them on the hills.
This works for me, and be happened upon after years of trial and error. I wouldn't try anything foreign for your century coming up.
