Tygart says 30% of positives are not intentional

The number sounds high, yet cross contamination pops up often in cases that get reviewed. Small amounts from supplements, food handling or sharing items can trigger a result even when the athlete did nothing on purpose. The split between routine tests and targeted tests matters a lot. Routine screens pick up the accidental cases, while targeted testing after suspicious patterns usually points to deliberate use.

Rojo, let it go already. You don’t have to keep looking for ways to try to clear SH.

Well to be fair, Houlihan was target-tested, so, 100%. But then, rojo knows that.

Also, 30% of all positive tests if not target-tested? No way, no how. Tygart is just looking for excuses to excuse USADA making excuses for dopers. Latest point in case: Knighton.

Finally: "water" or "your roommate's armsleeve"? Did that ever happen?

"Innocent positives" can include medications taken for legitimate reasons (Allie Ostrander or more famously Andrea Raducan) or contaminated supplements. The supplement industry is not well regulated and athletes must be careful what they take.

At this point a large % of dopers are only using products for which there's a tainted supplement excuse for. It's the perfect way of doping.

My coach's finger was contaminated with Androgel.

Or your roommate’s undies. If caught, do you use that defense admitting your strange fetish or suffer the ignominy of a drug suspension as the lesser evil?

America is always defending cheats yet people on this bored have the audacity to accuse other countries

"30% of our positive tests and up being innocent source positive"

Nope. The math does not check out. On December 29, 2020, Tygart wrote about B-Mart's positive test:

"This is our sixth no-fault case in just one year"

Unless USADA performed only 20 "regular untargeted" tests in 2020, out the 6233 tests they put on their webpage:

Hahaha kissing?

You imbibe 0.3 ml of someone's saliva. This saliva contains 10nanograms per deciliter of anavar metabolites and another 10 ng/dl of anavar. Let's just say, you've made out with a Lovely Muse of Pharmacopeia, and that her saliva contains that amount of every drug.

(10E-9)/0.1 * 0.003 = three thousandths of one nanogram of each drug. Three thousandths of a nanogram of each drug diluted into 9L of blood serum and other bodily water ----->>> 1/30 of a thousandth of a nanogram per deciliter is the conferred serum value of each drug and steroid.

This equals to 0.032 picograms per deciliter.

The average female serum testosterone level, endogenous, is around 0.4 nanograms per deciliter, which is also to be stated as around 400 picograms per deciliter.

As well as the audacity to point out posts with grammatical errors.

Ooooops - 30% of our positive tests, not out of all tests. Sorry, I couldn't read so early in the morning

30% of positives.

There, their, they're

Board, bored, boar

how Can you possibly keep up? It's so hard

If their doping is unintentional it does seem a little odd that so many are in contact with banned substances. I guess that means that a whole bunch of hobby joggers and similar randoms are also "unintentionally" doping, as it is in the water.

They're not being tested nor do we care about them. nitwit

Ross Tucker has not been a professor since 2016. But he still claims to be on his Podcast and website.

Their doping isn't unintentional. We already went through this with Shelby. The chance of a boar's offal having such high levels of nandy-boo is astronomically low.

Bodybuilding bros would be eating at that taco truck like it's going out of business, if they served meat that is glowing with AAS

Either America has the most tainted meat in the world or there's a ton of doping. Probably a mix of both. MAHA
