Yeah...right, in a nutshell it increases O2 via hemoglobin to the working muscles. I think you're just horsing around and know this. If, OTOH, you're actually clueless, then why don't read this article on basics of rEPO and endurance athletes i.e. EPO 101.

https://www.runnersworld.com/news/a20809487/how-does-epo-work/

WOW a 12% boost in VO2 max AND a 54% boost in time to exhaustion. That's a lotta extra glycogen eh? So EPO gives you more glycogen too?? Amazing. All completely factual and scientific of course!!!

Right...Jon Orange. ?

- Does anyone know what work-out that Coach Salazar had Yosef perform after the race?

Who tf is "Yosef"?

After reading the thread, I take it back.

Now, what to do about Coevett, just don't give him oxygen by replying to his half arsed posts?

And the morons claiming that El G once ran the last 800m of a 1500 WR in 1:47 'proving' he could have ran 1:42 are missing the point entirely aren't they? (apart from the fact that the momentum in the race would have given him nearly a second so it's the equivalent of a 1:48).

1:46.7 for last 800m in fast 1500m after his best years

averaged 1:49.8 pace in 1500m

official PB of 1:47.18 (never raced during best years)

So, what could El G run for 800m?

surely faster than 1:46

most would agree sub 1:45

some would agree sub 1:44

a few even sub 1:43

or 1:48? - because of some momentum?

You are exhausting.

YOU said that appearing fresh after running great times is a sign of doping.

I point out that Jakob ingerbritsen looked fresh after his recent 3:36 WJR indoors.

You claim that he was simply running within his ability and so it’s not a sign of doping in this case...

Now I say that Amos was literally stretchered off after his 1:41 by paramedics, whereas Coe most certainly did not; he celebrates etc and never even lies down.

You claim that in this case, running to exhaustion is actually a sign of doping, and jogging a lap of honour after 1:41 is actually a sign of being clean...................

Can you spell the word hypocrite?

Or understand the concept of irony?

Or more importantly, accept you know nothing about athletics at all?

You just make up points as required to try and prove your idea that all African athletes are dopers in every situation, and try and ignore if YOUR OWN same stupid ideas are used against your heroes.

Al Sal had a message for Coevett in the Week That Was,

"I think your website has hurt American distance running more than it has helped it. How? By giving weak-minded coaches and athletes the excuse that Americans are getting their butts kicked because everyone else is cheating."

b-but don't we already know everyone cheats?

at least in the United States we do

Barry Bonds

Lance Armstrong

Buzz Aldrin (#wakeupflatearth2k19)

I guess the point you're making could be that it's none of our business since they aren't our athletes, in which case, I would agree.

The times run in the last 800m of the women's 1500m in Rio by the top 3 were all faster than their PBs for 800m.

Except, as I’ve already pointed out, Coe never jogged a lap of honour after his 1:41!

Well...then; Coe must be too toasted to do anything like that.

Didn't El G do goofy stuff after some of his big performances? Stuff like dancing and pretending to play the guitar and so forth? Looks like he was hardly wiped out after those big races to be goofing off like he did. ?

It's called an 'EPO finish'. El G, Lagat and Bekele were masters of it. Add Ayana over 10k. You run a faster split than your pb for the shorter distance. An invention of the modern era.

I think some of the people posting here don't understand that or they're just trolling for the sake of argument.

You people

(And the folks who find it necessary to suspend and copy whole pages with previous posts)

Are nuts.

Cram was clean.

I took his blood in a lactate threshold treadmill test oh so many moons ago.

I’ve described the test a hundred times on these boards.

Tefera has no balls.

Whether he dopes is up to authorities who choose where they apply the rules.

Either way, drafting off a guy who is out to set a record, then not taking the lead tells me Tefera is a ball-less jerk.

Period.

Ball-less jerk.

But, unlike yourself, he's smart, he ran to his strength, which is sit and kick, and he got the WR and the money.

Not a single person here has explained how a human can set a new world record with a semi-closed mouth.

I know for a fact that I'm breathing like crazy with tired legs after pushing myself, and I'm slow. Is there some kind of secret technique to breathing? Does he genetically have stronger lungs?

Haha, what an idiotic statement. He’s a world champion and world record holder. Winning matters. There’s nothing “ballsy” about running dumb and getting beat.

It was explained to you, you just didn’t listen. The amount of oxygen you inhale is not the limiting factor in your performance.
