But I thought that Winstrol (brand name for stanozolol) didn't work at all?

What's sad about the situation in India with PED's is that on a Diamond League broadcast last year they said that when an Indian athlete competes it increases viewers by millions.

Why every Indian athlete is coming to USA to train under Scott Simmons?
1) Avinash Sable
2) Gulveer Singh
3) Kartik Kumar
4) Parvej Khan (he trained under simmons for a while before going to Florida gators)
Two of the above are busted. And in no time the other two will be busted as well.
Seems like simmons have some secret recipe.

Why does OP post have so many likes? People like Singh’s “best friend” getting busted? Is it him in particular or is just anyone getting busted a likable thing?

Darn. I live in the springs and see these dudes training. Was hoping they would all stay clean.
Side note, I have been told that doping in C Springs, Salt lake, San Diego is really stupid and you’ll get caught. Wada and USADA Are always in town with the training centers being there
Hey at least they are catching some cheaters

I can't speak for others, but I'm just glad they're getting caught. I have had my doubts about this group given the realities in India right now.

Sir, Gulveer Singh is a Rajput Hindu. Rajput Hindus are known for their honesty, integrity, bravery, and are very much a force in the Indian Army, and the sport of wrestling.
Quote:
"Hindu Rajputs are a warrior caste in northern and western India, claiming descent from ruling Hindu warrior classes. The term "Rajput" means "son of a king" and they are part of the Kshatriya varna. They have historically been known for their military prowess and played a significant role in defending kingdoms and conquering others, according to Joshua Project."
Unlikely that Singh would bring shame and dishonour to his family.
I'm touring India now, Delhi, Aligarh, Jaipur, Dehradun, Mussorie. No one has a bad word to say about Gulveer Singh. Just saying....odds are he's squeaky clean....

Simmons is the Head Track Coach for the World Class Athlete Program in the US Army. This is a terrible look for two athletes he's touched have doped (even if not part of the US Army program).
More investigations need to happen with Simmons and how much he knew.
Bad Look.

I up vote posts like the OP because they are posting breaking news to this site that is running related. Doesn't matter if it's good news or bad.
That's enough thread derailing from me.

I'm not surprised that an American based athlete is doping. The positive test by USADA could be surprising, but is ofcourse explained by the fact that this guy isn't of American nationality.

USADA is preying on non-Americans to just meet its “quota” and look like it’s doing its job.

IDK much about these guys but I will say one thing... Living and training in India is not at all conducive to running fast times .... there is literally no where to train in many parts of the country... your best training routes might be on what is effectively the interstate ... aside from that... even in the places where there are serviceable routes air pollution is so bad it's questionable whether running is really good for you or not... my point is if he ran 14:02 while living/training in India and left India to train somewhere like Boulder or even the worst imaginable place to train in the USA this improvement over that period of time is not that unreasonable... ***I have been to India and run in a few places there, all the stereotypes about the country exist for good reason.
