Specific diet plans, oxygen deprivation training, the list goes on. Worst of all there’s always those annoying bastards that train harder than anyone else and/or were born genetically fitter than anyone else
Beetroot shots and coffee first thing in the morning - tick; protein spread throughout the day - tick; carbs and protein ASAP after training - tick; Vitamin D replacement dose as recommended by the NHS - tick. It very quickly becomes routine, but all legal. I can understand how high dose supplements - and more - would also become routine - that nightly micro-dose injection of EPO a la Armstrong?
