Best guest since Josh Hill. You’re starting to win me over Gypsy. Yes the FIM tests... no they dont always enforce the policies. I personally have witnessed failed tests in pro motocross and seen it swept under the rug. The promoter ultimately makes the call. Monster rider in a Monster sponsored series? Get the broom.
@minibikemafia aldon is clearly helping all these kids cheat. Otherwise there is ZERO reason to be paying him 100s of thousands just for training. Aldon doesnt have some monopoly on fitness. What he does have is rare skills & connections in the PED world. Im pro PED use btw.
@@S0RELOSER it inhances speed which in turn inhances danger. Mx fans don't like to see carnage. They like to see close racing. Plus it creates a secretive situation knowing large groups are doing it.
@@S0RELOSER fair enough. A-kit suspension and custom traction control is as good as ped use for sure. AMA should be ashamed of how they treat the privateers...
@@jaydensdream714 actually, the privateers should be grateful that the AMA even has privateers. Privateers do not exist in F1, MotoGP or any other form of legitimate motorsport. If you complain that riders dont make enough money, teams are not profitable, and mechanics/team staff are underpaid... then you dont get to complain that the privateer is screwed. It's a contradiction. If the sport put it's big boy pants on, the privateer would be relegated to a support series and all pro racing would be factory or satellite teams ONLY. The sport would make more money and be healthier for EVERYONE. The privateers are owed nothing, as they bring nothing to the table.

Dude I love the podcast. Your are bringing amazing contact for the dirt bike community. But dude you gotta stop talking over your guests. Let them finish on what they want to say. Your guest knows a lot about the topic your discussing. Let him explain his professional opinion, without interrupting him with your personal experiences. Just a thought? Continue putting out awesome content. RESPECT
Yea, I didn’t wanna be a dick so I never said anything, but yea what he said. . . Given that, love your show, and I’m very glad your enjoying great success. You make the long out of state drives to big races so much better. Keep ‘em coming. And thank you for what you do. Ricky Lee Carlisle
Barcia didn’t even look sweaty last night. 🤨first thing I thought to myself was, idc how good of shape you’re in. 20 something laps on a 450 should make you sweat.
Man I just commented the same thing! He wasn't sweating, easn't res in the face. Wasn't breathing hard! There's a few other guys I've seen that have been like that too. Idc how fit you are after a 20 min moto pushing as hard as you can there's no way you're not going to sweat and start breathing heavy!🤔
Idk if you watch the St. Louis race last night but Barcia finished 2nd riding with the flu. Once again during the interview immediately after the race he wasn't sweating, his face wasn't red and he wasn't breathing hard at all. Meanwhile Kenny's pouring sweat and his face is red from riding hard. Kinds makes you wonder...
The Professor PTG I was wondering how Barcia was turning his career around at such a late stage and the mention of bubba and the wall jump man it explains a lot.
@@christianthompson8577 Big difference between a run and a 20 minute pro sx race. Every person on earth will sweat and be at the very least somewhat red after going as hard as they do. You don't keep your heart rate between 180-200bpm on a run.
I was in pro motocross then bodybuilding looking back I know in my day people were on stuff and back then no testing . These guys now a days are crazy .
As someone with ADHD I was put on adderall as a kid and it has almost the opposite effect on me it actually calms you down instead of intenssafying things as they are saying , if you don't have ADHD it's a whole different story, not saying that james did or didn't cheat idk so I'm not gonna make opinions on speculations . Just my take on it
i think this is what confuses people that assume they know what a drug does. the chemical imbalance that causes adhd causes stimulants to act as suppressants. adhd athlete's should be banned due to the unfair advantage we have lol. normal must be so boring.
@@hondajedi125 haha for real man ! I will say that when it comes to learning if I care about something and think it's interesting I'm 110% locked in , but when it comes to math , reading and writing I hate it and am not good at and cont focus to save my life lol
I have ADHD and i can tell you when I used to take those pills they certainly seemed liked they calmed me down but in reality all they do is stimulate the brain (tweak you out) too focus on bs😂 Try sleeping after you take those ADDYs
@@boogiekush9391 but imagine if schools incorporated things that interest you into those dry/bland subjects. Learn the math associated with jumping (determine where you will land with x amount of speed, x amount of incline, x amount of compression, gravity duh, maybe even learn how a bike would behave on mars!?) You would learn advanced mathematics, calculus, and it would be cool as fuck, suspension, fuel ratios, etc... Or, learn how to program an Arduino into an analytics device for your motorcycle to track average time in air, lap times, speed, etc.. I'm sure the necessary modules/sensors exist, and programming is going to be the biggest skill of the future. If meta takes off (fuck facebook) you'll be able to code your own world, your own dreams. kinda scary actually.... Incorporate some motocross history alongside the normal history we learn (since forgetting that the holocaust happened would be a terrible idea). Base our English studies around the type of english work you might do as a media journalist, or writer for one of the moto magazines. These are just examples, and this example applies to other interests, not just motocross, but I don't think the individual is 100% to blame for finding something that is clearly boring, well....., BORING! It's our brains job to discard and/or ignore redundancy, it is also completely natural to not find boring stuff interesting. Yeah there are some serious downsides to this kind of mental wiring, but there are some upsides too, and that is, when you love something, you love it even more than the average person, almost to an obsessive level, amplified even further if you have OCD as well. It's either extreme disinterest, or extreme interest, lol it sucks for functioning in society, but personally I think people are insane for being content doing the most mundane shit for their entire lives, things that they hate. Everyone has to do things that they hate, but doing something that you hate for your entire life thinking that that's the only way? Everyones gotta start somewhere, but imagine working a drive thru job your whole life because you never tried to pursue something that cared about. Yeah you might fail even if you try your best, but at least you have a story to pass down, and you know that you at least tried. Again, we need people in those positions, I'm just referring to the people that feel that a job is supposed to be something that you hate.
After seeing the big picture after 20 years of Aldon Baker's dominance, you compare his unreal streak to those long, uninterrupted, outstanding athlete success stories such as Armstrong, barry bonds, etc etc, to believe AB transforms riders into legends in a 6 month span in a legítimate way, you still believe in Santa clause.
Not every rider to train under Baker becomes an instant champion. And some were champions before Baker. He's had more failures than successes. 5 solid champions and at least 7 failures. Though even his failures have had some success.
It all comes down to- On what preference do you want somebody to win on? Hard work? Justice? Racing with less money than everybody else? Tough childhood? Let every racer be fully tested for drugs and let ama supply the bikes. No mods and from the same brand. Let the fun begin
I'm glad this was brought up! I've def been noticing certain guys after the races during the post race interview(the one immediately after the race for the 1st-3tf place guys) that certain guys after a 15 or 20 minute moto and they won't be sweating, won't be breathing heavy, and nit even red in the face!!!!
After I was reading this I was watching Eli in the podium after A2 to see if he was showing any signs of this because he was riding like he was from another planet! Lol I was going back to look at Aldon Baker boys on the podium! Lmao 😂
@@ericd.4253 yeah Eli isn't one of them dudes usually pouring sweat. For those asking names I'll only give y'all the obvious one and that Barcia check his interviews immediatley after the race and dude looks like he just woke up not like he just raced a 20 min supercross race
Jase this clip is unreal and should have so much more exposure it’s such an interesting topic and something that never even crossed my mind before I watched this but it makes sense that it would be in the sport I’m not making any claims whatsoever and I would hope it’s not true just as much as the next guy cuz I love him his style and his riding but I can’t help but wonder if sexton popped an addy before Daytona Stewart’s his trainer and he’s the only one who absolutely sent the wall at Daytona shhhh keep the content coming jase it’s unreal!
I remember reading a book from one of the drugging tour d France riders and he said in there that the riders on his team were on so much epo that they all had to get up at 3 in the morning to walk around for a while because their blood was so thick it would cause cardiac arrest if they didn’t walk in the middle of the night ⚠️
@@twistedfilms9712 I wasn't talking about that. I was referring to the one with Bryan Fogel. Fogels story is almost word for word the same as the guy who commented and it's obvious that he is just repeating Fogels story but just adding different people. Fogel did a cycling race and he talked about hearing the other rides get up in the middle of the night because of the thick blood from the EPO.
Erik Larson the book I read was wrote by David millar pro cyclist and I also read many others on the same subject, you simply could not ride in the tour without doping up and that’s fact and even now they are allowed to dope up their levels to a certain level of blood and other things. millar was injecting mass vitamins into his legs everyday for recovery it was team orders for everyone and that’s allowed ⚠️
You are a loser, because you don't think in reality. Get into some high level engineering so you can learn how to reason. I got into engineering, because I was not fast enough either. There is no performance enhancing drug problem in our great sport, and you have no evidence there is. Shadow ban that, you delusional prick!!!
@@sciencemilitia1853 you think the top guys take peds your a moron lmao the training they do is insane not to mention this isnt a marathon its a motorcycle race. you can take a man on peds and James stewart and James in his prime would smoke him why cause if your fast and have talent you dont need roids
PEDs and blood doping is why John Tomac got out of competitive cycling; the options were cheat and have a chance at winning or don’t cheat and be mid pack.
Adderall doesn't make you high if you have ADD/ADHD. It simply makes you normal. These people are talking about their experience with illegally abusing it. Not good.
That’s a fact. Been taking it since I was little, just turns me into a quiet zombie. But people I know that don’t need it love the stuff. For all the “benefits” makes me feel dead afterwards.
I thought James was taking it because of the concussions? So maybe this is why Aldon boys get away with it! This for sure puts a new light on the James Stewart and Broc tickle issue
Listen to the podcast, dude just talked about taking adderall and driving all over the place and running around with heavy camera gear in the hot Florida sun, something he couldn't do without adderall. It is a PED.
@@pay2000 You are mostly accurate. But you definitely don't understand how the effects of Adderall. It's not like painkillers. Definitely could do those things on Adderall and probably extremely well with the focus and intensity it provides. It's not even something I consume for fun or a medical reason before you try and talk shit. Should know what you are talking about better though.
with the amount of people that take adderall, don't you think we would have a lot more JS7's? seriously, it was for post concussion, it's pretty unsafe to race or ride when you can't focus. .. it can enhance focus to an abnormal level, this is true, but to think that James wouldn't have been just as dominant or as talented without it is insane. The guy was a wizard with bike control, and he had a do or die mindset because his family sacrificed everything.
Eye-opening stuff... from a guy who never took a PED. Now you have me thinking about some of the guys who were just mutant in core strength and could take such brutal abuse while racing 2 or 3 classes on race day. I never dreamed of even thinking there may have been people doing this. I can see how your mind could run away with you and compel you to take them just in case the other guys are cheating... What a dirty side of our beautiful sport... If we could just get us people out of motocross, things would be much better (for the overly serious, that was a joke). I do perceive, though, (no specific stories) that when powerful stimulants came into our culture in the 80s and 90's that some of our top guys were finding a lot of speed (pardon the pun) and endurance when their training programs were pretty weak.
i aint point fingers but if u think about it the top guys are on such an other level... maybe not roids but other supplements to help you recover faster, or focus more and even bags of there own blood so they have extra red blood cels to carry oxygen on race day etc. e.g. tomac, sandbox and baker factory guys. (all ex cycling coaches might i add, which is a sport riddled with this shit) im no accusing, but it sure is interesting on how these top guys can just be on such an other level. also just ask yourself this question, why do the top 10 guys lap the entire field, and then theres a big gap to the next group of guys, are doing similar lap times, there almost x2 groups of racers in each race. next time u watch a moto at the end watch on the left side of the screen. theres almost a perfect line at 10th place where they go from 20 secs apart to like a few mins down. I feel like these are all the "natural" guys, and then top 10 guys are just next level by such a margin then the next group are all so close. at the end of the day top guys check out and find an other gear after 15 mins... its just odd how much better they are.
Really when you look at the top guys Tomac is the only one who has an excuse to be a beast. I.E. great genetics and training at altitude since he was a pup. His body already naturally does this. But for Anderson to run with Tomac after an injury and Webb winning supercross its obvious what is what man. If theses guys are using they wanna come on strong mid pack about this time/ watch the baker boys as only time will tell.
I mean, I know that John Tomac didn't like the idea of taking illegal supplements when he was road racing and that led to his quitting road racing professionally. The training these athletes have to go through to get to the condition they're in is insane, and I'm sure that some use illegal PED's, but it wouldn't surprise me if others weren't. Tomac would probably deal with the wrath of his dad if he took illegal PED's, but he trains arguably harder than everyone else does and has lived in high altitude his entire life. Could lead to his being in better shape, but could also make more oxygen that much easier for him at lower altitudes and possibly imitating some of the recovery effects that drugs have caused.
@@brianlanglois9597 That's what I am saying his body is already doing some of this naturally. Yeah his dad would kick his ass, man your right on.. that's why he stopped racing you had to cheat to win. We all know they are close and John would never let Eli risk his life, he has more then enough money to stop. I think this will push the guys like Tomac and Roczen out tho. We all know Kenny could use the help.
The top guys are on another lever in anything, that is why they are top guys, and is to be admired. But there is something a bit new. There are no top guys who can consistently win races. Marty Smith, Weinert, Tony D., DeCoster, Hannah, Johnson, Stanton, RC, Villopoto, all racers who regularly left the pack behind, did not take performance enhancing drugs. They are all pretty much the same speed today. Now what kind of drug makes everybody the same stinking speed???!!! On another level? Who?
@@EarthSurferUSA I can't comment on all of those since many of those racers were before my time. Jeremy McGrath was a mix of a lot of work, having the best designed and well rounded bikes at the time, and natural skill. RC brought a lot of working out and training into the sport, along with training along with Aldon Baker. He moved up in the pro ranks as soon as he started working out and then everyone started joining in. He was untouchable for a few years until people started figuring out the right way to do it. Villopoto was an absolute beast. Arguably the best ever on a 250f and one of the best ever on a 450. If he could keep himself motivated enough and did race mx I think he could have been another RC and McGrath. James Stewart was natural talent who was absolutely unstoppable when he was on it. He's one of 2 people ever to have a perfect season, and he dominated. Now, he got caught with adderall and even with a prescription, that's straight up cheating. Anyone who's done adderall can attest to that. Now, are all the top guys cheating? Or is the level just super high now and only so many people can reach that level, let alone naturally. Wouldn't surprise me if a lot of the top guys were doping, but the field is deeper now than it was when only 3 or 5 guys were working out with the right program. Programs have evolved and I think that has a lot to do with the deep skill ceiling
I was prescribed adderall at 15. Probably needed something much sooner. But adderall is super addictive and will mess you up. I’ve had so many issues mentally and physically since then. I still crave it and I’ve been off of it for 5 years.
If it was all about fitness I would still be winning races . I’m a halfway decent natural skilled racer (of the gang I ride with I have the least natural talent ) but I’m a very fit person so my speed was the same start to finish. Now if it was a motocross race then my competitions better talent was not my friend. But when it was a 5 to 8 hour Enduro I was the king. A few years ago they revamp the Enduro series to make it more user-friendly and that’s about the same time my results got worse. Used to be by the gas stop everybody but me was dragging But now at the gas stops everyone is standing around playing cards and smoking cigarettes. As I’m over there in the corner crying because I know I have lost my edge
Rad topic! I believe, let the riders do that stuff. The damage and wear and tear the put on their bodies is unlike anything or any sport out there. If it heals them faster and that’s what they wanna do let it ride.
Sexton is at the top of the list after watching him take his helmet off and didn't even break a sweat or sit down after the 2nd moto at Washougal nobody is in that good of shape Tomac after the 1st moto looked like he was done both Lawrence brothers sat down and took off their helmets and both were drenched in sweat and massively tired Sexton didn't even look like he had raced looked pretty sketchy
Yep this interview is the exact definition of sexton this moto season, sextons been proving that’s he’s on peds every week he comes of the track looking like he’s been sitting on the couch
What wouldn’t shock me is if sarms were a bigger component than most of us think. Think about it they didn’t become mainstream that long ago, they have great cardio performance enhancement benefits, and our testing is so little compared to most sports riders could easily get away with it if they don’t test for it, or just let it’s half like take it’s course which for almost all of them is no more than 30ish hours
People think PEDs are like body builder type shit so they don't think any riders are on them lol they enhance recovery and allow you to increase output... not just for big muscles....people are DEFINITELY using them.
I had a friend who did very very high-end business we’re talking billion dollar business deals and before a critical meeting he would take a half a dose of Adderall so he could stay focused.
Cannibal Nectar The reason I bring it up is because it’s just like the athletes, Everyone was doing it and everyone was laser sharp focused, do it or go home, the athletes are in the same exact situation piles and piles of money to be made if you take this pill.
That’s why James Stewart was taking adderall. It increases focus and speeds up your brain. It’s like living in a slightly slow motion world but your at full speed. It’s crazy, executives are taking it, kids are using it for SAT/ACT tests, it’s getting out of control to where if you’re not taking it, you’re at a disadvantage.
I don’t believe you. What friend do you have that “did” billion dollar business deals on “half a dose” of adderall? Half a dose isn’t a thing. Neither is “doing” business deals worth billions. There’s ALWAYS more than one person doing a business deal that big. if not an entire company (Rabican)
Sadly it's like that with nearly every single sport and competition these days. Even women are using steroids now. From track and field, weightlifting (cross fit), combat sports, tennis, football, basketball, baseball, soccer and everything in between. Even people in e sports are using stimulants like adderal or Ritalin and wakefulness promoting agents like modafinal. Its everywhere and most people have no idea.
Is it cheating if you don't get caught... Or is it playing the game. Are you willing to risk your life to win, if not how are you going to beat the guy who will? You may not like the game, but you'll never eliminate people riding on or over the edge of the rules.
Coming from someone with ADHD, Adderall is one of the most accessible and shitty stimulants you could put in your body. I’ve taken it for years from elementary school through high school and higher education. I’ve been off of it for the last two years because of how it made me feel. The benefits are there but the consequences of abuse aren’t worth it.
The mad thing is cody,was telling us tj was on epo for months but he diddnt get flagged till afte the figh(AFTER HE LOST AND IT DIDDNT GET THE RESULTS REVERSED
No ped will not give you talent. But it will give you tenacity! Drive! Agression! Stamina! Recover! They will put you in, and keep you in attack mode longer. Rather than falling off pace cause your just not feeling it that day.
He got banned for 16 months, (a career engine period for most, no matter what stage of their pro career), for not filling out paperwork for the "career ending drug police" to clear a Doctor prescribed drug. James, his family, the factory, all his sponsors, everybody he worked with and the fans got ripped off, and nobody in the industry stood up for James. A life long commitment until retirement is needed to do well in this sport, and some outside force dictatorship can end your career when they "feel" they want to flex their unaccountable muscle. You can't sue the government drug police. If James is all they have,--there is no drug problem in USA MX.
It's possible the drug helped him, but that's not very good evidence for it. He was past his prime anyway plus being away from the sport for 16 months, those 2 things alone would end a career. So it can't be attributed to not being on Adderall, there are way too many factors.
With absolutely no evidence, yea, pretty much. There is no performance enhancing dug problem in USA MX. He knows a lot about how these drugs work, but he has no evidence they are being used in USA MX. We have to always question guys like this, and make them prove it. He can't prove it, because a drug problem in USA MX does not exist. It remindes me of the President Trump/Russian collusion crap that did not exist.
@@GYPSYTALES The only problem I have with this topic is who does the drug testing and sets the rules. I think that responsibility should be done within the USA MX industry, (possibly by the AMA), and not some unaccountable, non-elected outside government agency who can not be sued for destroying the twilight of James Stewart's career, (for one example). I think they stalled for a year on Tickle's case,---a year, Brock had no idea what was going to happen to his career.
You can’t tell if someone is legitimately ADD or ADHD from the outside. James could very well legitimately have the condition and the treatment for it does work. Yes it’s a stimulant but it doesn’t have those wiring type effects if the person has he condition and the dose is right.
@@GYPSYTALES fyi ADD and ADHD look very different , I'm ADD and 95% of people can't tell. Not defending JS here (I think he doesnt have eather one because it would have been a problem way earlyer in his career, ie he would have been on that shit for years already). Thats crazy how adderall affected you, tried it for a month when I was a kid (help me focus a little better but made me shut down socially) FTS
@@aeroe2144 correct! People who need it, don't react the same way to those who don't need it. Also, like any drug, you'll end up with a certain tolerance towards it after a While. yep and to touch on your point too, JS may not have seemed to have adhd/add because his medication may have somewhat regulated how he appears from the outside.
I am diagnosed adhd and have not found a difference in my riding on or off ritalin. I wasnt diagnosed until i was an adult. I dont take stupid risks as much, but that could be age related.
I just don’t see adderall being an advantage its hard on your cardiovascular system, and probably have more negative effects than anything. I doubt you already want to increase heart rate then its going to be racing probably wouldn’t even feel the adderall having all the adrenaline from racing alone. I just don’t see it being a big factor unless he had paperwork to do. To be honest I ride worse on adderall I get winded faster, and thirsty from dry mouth other than that no difference
look into UCI BMX testing Mike Kapes and Kyle Bennett. Kyle (RIP) was on the Olympic team and fishy shit went down. Kapes got "random" tested 2 days in a row, passes day 1 but fails day 2 when tested with Bennett. ended up taking a 2 yr suspension that basically ended his career. i think they stuck him with the failed UI to not lose funding for the newly created USA bmx olympic team because their lead rider failed for PEDs.
How does he not know if the testing is done by usada, wada, or some other party? That should be the first thing you research if you're actually doing your homework on PED's in any sport
Mauhang used to be available at health food stores in the 1990's. I used it, had energy to get through a 10 hour workday and train on weights and pedal 18 miles too. Good stuff! Took one three times a week. Can't we just be watching racing and be happy for the result?
Bob Shy I work 10-14 hour days and I’m fucking dead after or When I work the random short day once every other week or so I sleep for like 16 hours that day. Hahaha. I need me some of that stuff.
I’m down in south Mississippi and I used to help a good friend of mine at golden pine raceway at Loretta qualifiers and regionals and seen em all down here from Anderson to the Martin brothers (windham fan til the end) it would blow people’s minds the way some of the parents treated their children and what they would give their 13 year old son for a C class Loretta qualifier. One parent walked up to me while I was running the start gates and said hey Korey my son *#%*}* is so nervous I just gave him a Xanax to calm his nerves and help with arm pump and I was like wtf? It’s got a new owner which I hear has done an amazing job with the place but I haven’t been anywhere near it for years because of the typical motocross parents and their bullshit got me away from the sport. To me the best days of Mx and sx were 04ish to 2010ish (yes I know there were a lot of the same problems and everyone thinks their racing days were the best I’m no different and yes it’s debatable) but training facilities were waaayyyy fewer I mean millsaps training facility was the standard for training facilities (besides the blood doping baker factory for the top guys) but that’s just my opinion. Great channel great topics keep up the great work.
Btw I think the fastest I ever went through those whoops was after 6 beers at 19 years old the weekend before race day when me and randy (the original previous owner/great buddy) and a few more would jump off the tractors and dozers and just strap our helmets on for a test lap of a new jump or new section. Ahhh good times
TJ Dillashaw was retested for epo for all the Cody fights and his 2 other previous fights. He passed all those tests. That's coming from the head of USDA Jeff Novitzky.
@Eric D. Trust me there’s loop holes look at Adam for example he was major hurt body mind just in general comes into sx on 250 last year and boom it’s like a freight train and he keeps getting bigger and bigger I’m not saying Adam had used something but I have my sucspisions it doesn’t add up to me
@@EliteGamer21 definitely after talking to AC quite a bit during his rehab in Cali he’s a great kid and definitely doesn’t do peds he just over rides 👍🏻
I used ride motocross 70 hours a week im guilty of an unfair advantage....i can do some amazing stuff one a bike....no matter what kind it is...cheating tjat is im quit practucing tommorrow so u ll can catch up...can i at least work on the 125cc 2 smoke against the 450while catching up...thanks
U know whats truly insane is i ride a motorcycle better than anyone u have ever seen...it took me a while to figure out 2 stroke an then ride like McGrath over big jumps..i retired from racing at 43 ish waited a while but was really curious to see what the modern era 4 stroke was capable of i got a chance for 10 minute straight held it pinned it was so superhuman strong as much as i enjoyed it....as was thankfull i got to try an 07 CRF 450 not the Race X the standard...i said this animal will wear me out it had so much race able power an too much traction it was nuts...i thought what kinda shape would i have to get in to ride it...forget how smooth i was...
Naturally i played 6 hours of tennis an worked out as hard as i could ran on the treadmill 8 degree 8 miles an hour broke the belt off it had my heart rate at 180 bpm stop sat with in a few minutes it was relaxed down to 42 bpm....then i went road racing and my brakes failed at 150mph not a good secind race....i was ableto get it down to 50mph an get off it...unhurt...but i ll get on a built 125 2 stroke an beat a 450....then ill get on the 450 an beat the 125 ....but there aint many like me i didnt get started till 30...
Just saying!! Barcia might be one of those individuals who doesn’t sweat like you and I do. This could be a way to look at this EPO Topic open you mind and research before just bashing the keys!!
True. My two sons would race and one would be lathered in sweat, the other as cool as a cucumber. The non-sweater just rode very loose and didn't fight the bike nearly as much. Both were winners.
My roomate in college had issues with over sweating and he worried it would hurt his professional career and had surgery and he simply doesn’t sweat now. Prio his hands were ringing wet with no exertion. Real dangerous surgery at the base of his neck.
Welcome to our new 2020 PED class haha No matter what when you’re on a professional level especially in extreme sports. PEDs will be an issue. Every athlete and team are pushing their athletes and bikes to the absolute max so anyone saying they wouldn’t do that. Come on now. Especially when the amount of money that’s involved. Don’t be ignorant people lol
I started to agree until a certain point… just cause a guy finishes a race and he is calm and his heart rate normal, it isn’t fair to stipulate he is on ped’s… that is ridiculous… some are natural winners and being calm with a low heart rate allows them to perform well naturally
Yeah, I wrestled and sometimes after a tough match you feel like your heart is going to explode, but I don’t really sweat much at all, even when I’m super hydrated. Some people are just like that. That being said I have no idea who uses PEDa and who doesn’t, but podium interviews aren’t any good way to guess
Not defending TJ Dillashaw, but that information about him popping against Garbrandt is not true. He did not and that is why the fight is still ruled in Dillashaws favor. That is not true and the information is out there if you did the research. That information was put out by Joe Rogan and he refuted the claim after being called out on it.
There's articles out there about USADA retesting his old samples from previous fights. Also USADA tested multiple samples for TJ that all failed for epo. You might want to re investigate your comment.

Don’t misunderstand me-I do enjoy listening to Rob Beam, and I appreciate his analytical nature. However, I have some significant criticisms regarding Rob. What are his qualifications beyond education that entitle him to label himself as a physiologist? Does he possess any documented scholarly contributions, or is he merely another opportunist profiting from products, portraying himself as an authoritative figure without providing any substantial educational credentials?
They need to break up the classes pros and then factory pros Untested and then tested People come to watch their loved ones race just as much as they come to watch the best riders race. More classes means more money for the sport anyways.
Great show.. The testing labs/organizations are creating winners and losers in boxing Deonta Wilder has been protected form fighting two maybe more opponents that where his mandatories. The labs found them both positive and with that alone, it took both guys out with suspensions for years. Both guys where later cleared but lost the best years of their boxing careers.
Did you really just try and say Wilder is being protected from fighting certain guys when he's literally fought all of the most dangerous guys in his division and never backed down from taking any fight and even the fight with Joshua that didn't happen had nothing to do with him it was Joshua and his camp that avoided the fight. You might want to look at some other boxers first that actually hide from certain guys before you day that about Wilder considering everyone in the boxing world has him known for fighting who ever. Horrible example.
@minibikemafia he’s wrong about everything he said. Three people failed a drug test prior fighting wilder. Povetkin 2016 Andrzej Wawrzyk Ortiz 2017 Neither one of those guys where suspened for years.
When i was little like 3 they tryed riddelin an i think it just made me go faster...then they got me into every sport they could an my parents figure out i was fine
Real talk Bro if someone is perscribed and needs adderal, or riddelin, that is their medical buisness and no one else's i think, but illegal drugs are obviously not ok!
It’s called crystal meth, not addicted. 10 minutes before the race. Just a tiny bit, not shooting up or a big line. Just a smidgen, energy galore. Gone from system fast.
You might not want to be so emphatic about a drug you know nothing about. For people who are diagnosed with ADD or ADHD they might be prescribed Adderall because they need it to help with the chemical imbalance in their brain. For those of us taking it legally for a diagnosed medical issue, it helps in our day to day life with concentration, organization and many other things. I like your channel a lot but I was very disappointed to hear you talk about seomthing so matter of fact that you clearly are not educated on.
@@GYPSYTALES I'm interested to know if it worked for you as a kid. It definitely had the opposite affect that's it's supposed to on you as an adult.

Best guest since Josh Hill. You’re starting to win me over Gypsy.
Yes the FIM tests... no they dont always enforce the policies. I personally have witnessed failed tests in pro motocross and seen it swept under the rug.
The promoter ultimately makes the call.
Monster rider in a Monster sponsored series? Get the broom.
@minibikemafia aldon is clearly helping all these kids cheat. Otherwise there is ZERO reason to be paying him 100s of thousands just for training. Aldon doesnt have some monopoly on fitness. What he does have is rare skills & connections in the PED world.
Im pro PED use btw.
@@S0RELOSER it inhances speed which in turn inhances danger. Mx fans don't like to see carnage. They like to see close racing. Plus it creates a secretive situation knowing large groups are doing it.
@@jaydensdream714 so does factory suspension. Or worx tires. Or anything else that teams use to make bikes go faster. Your argument sucks. Do better.
@@S0RELOSER fair enough. A-kit suspension and custom traction control is as good as ped use for sure. AMA should be ashamed of how they treat the privateers...
@@jaydensdream714 actually, the privateers should be grateful that the AMA even has privateers. Privateers do not exist in F1, MotoGP or any other form of legitimate motorsport.
If you complain that riders dont make enough money, teams are not profitable, and mechanics/team staff are underpaid... then you dont get to complain that the privateer is screwed. It's a contradiction.
If the sport put it's big boy pants on, the privateer would be relegated to a support series and all pro racing would be factory or satellite teams ONLY. The sport would make more money and be healthier for EVERYONE.
The privateers are owed nothing, as they bring nothing to the table.

Barcia didn’t even look sweaty last night. 🤨first thing I thought to myself was, idc how good of shape you’re in. 20 something laps on a 450 should make you sweat.
Man I just commented the same thing! He wasn't sweating, easn't res in the face. Wasn't breathing hard! There's a few other guys I've seen that have been like that too. Idc how fit you are after a 20 min moto pushing as hard as you can there's no way you're not going to sweat and start breathing heavy!🤔
Idk if you watch the St. Louis race last night but Barcia finished 2nd riding with the flu. Once again during the interview immediately after the race he wasn't sweating, his face wasn't red and he wasn't breathing hard at all. Meanwhile Kenny's pouring sweat and his face is red from riding hard. Kinds makes you wonder...
The Professor PTG I was wondering how Barcia was turning his career around at such a late stage and the mention of bubba and the wall jump man it explains a lot.
The Professor PTG some people sweat more than others, I sweat buckets meanwhile my friends will barely break a sweat but go harder than me on a run
@@christianthompson8577 Big difference between a run and a 20 minute pro sx race. Every person on earth will sweat and be at the very least somewhat red after going as hard as they do. You don't keep your heart rate between 180-200bpm on a run.
I was in pro motocross then bodybuilding looking back I know in my day people were on stuff and back then no testing . These guys now a days are crazy .
As someone with ADHD I was put on adderall as a kid and it has almost the opposite effect on me it actually calms you down instead of intenssafying things as they are saying , if you don't have ADHD it's a whole different story, not saying that james did or didn't cheat idk so I'm not gonna make opinions on speculations . Just my take on it
i think this is what confuses people that assume they know what a drug does. the chemical imbalance that causes adhd causes stimulants to act as suppressants. adhd athlete's should be banned due to the unfair advantage we have lol. normal must be so boring.
@@hondajedi125 haha for real man ! I will say that when it comes to learning if I care about something and think it's interesting I'm 110% locked in , but when it comes to math , reading and writing I hate it and am not good at and cont focus to save my life lol
I have ADHD and i can tell you when I used to take those pills they certainly seemed liked they calmed me down but in reality all they do is stimulate the brain (tweak you out) too focus on bs😂 Try sleeping after you take those ADDYs
I was givin Ritalin as a kid for adhd and that shit put me to sleep. I felt like a sleep walker.
@@boogiekush9391 but imagine if schools incorporated things that interest you into those dry/bland subjects. Learn the math associated with jumping (determine where you will land with x amount of speed, x amount of incline, x amount of compression, gravity duh, maybe even learn how a bike would behave on mars!?) You would learn advanced mathematics, calculus, and it would be cool as fuck, suspension, fuel ratios, etc...
Or, learn how to program an Arduino into an analytics device for your motorcycle to track average time in air, lap times, speed, etc.. I'm sure the necessary modules/sensors exist, and programming is going to be the biggest skill of the future. If meta takes off (fuck facebook) you'll be able to code your own world, your own dreams. kinda scary actually....
Incorporate some motocross history alongside the normal history we learn (since forgetting that the holocaust happened would be a terrible idea).
Base our English studies around the type of english work you might do as a media journalist, or writer for one of the moto magazines.
These are just examples, and this example applies to other interests, not just motocross, but I don't think the individual is 100% to blame for finding something that is clearly boring, well....., BORING!
It's our brains job to discard and/or ignore redundancy, it is also completely natural to not find boring stuff interesting. Yeah there are some serious downsides to this kind of mental wiring, but there are some upsides too, and that is, when you love something, you love it even more than the average person, almost to an obsessive level, amplified even further if you have OCD as well.
It's either extreme disinterest, or extreme interest, lol
it sucks for functioning in society, but personally I think people are insane for being content doing the most mundane shit for their entire lives, things that they hate. Everyone has to do things that they hate, but doing something that you hate for your entire life thinking that that's the only way?
Everyones gotta start somewhere, but imagine working a drive thru job your whole life because you never tried to pursue something that cared about. Yeah you might fail even if you try your best, but at least you have a story to pass down, and you know that you at least tried. Again, we need people in those positions, I'm just referring to the people that feel that a job is supposed to be something that you hate.
After seeing the big picture after 20 years of Aldon Baker's dominance, you compare his unreal streak to those long, uninterrupted, outstanding athlete success stories such as Armstrong, barry bonds, etc etc, to believe AB transforms riders into legends in a 6 month span in a legítimate way, you still believe in Santa clause.
I sure wonder.
Not every rider to train under Baker becomes an instant champion. And some were champions before Baker. He's had more failures than successes. 5 solid champions and at least 7 failures. Though even his failures have had some success.
I was thinking the same thing given his pro cycling background.
Nice dont drag santa into this too funny
So we need a stock and Mod/PED classes?! Lol
Haha if they did that it would be like "drug tested" bodybuilding.

I remember reading a book from one of the drugging tour d France riders and he said in there that the riders on his team were on so much epo that they all had to get up at 3 in the morning to walk around for a while because their blood was so thick it would cause cardiac arrest if they didn’t walk in the middle of the night ⚠️

Dammn
Erik Larson the book I read was wrote by David millar pro cyclist and I also read many others on the same subject, you simply could not ride in the tour without doping up and that’s fact and even now they are allowed to dope up their levels to a certain level of blood and other things. millar was injecting mass vitamins into his legs everyday for recovery it was team orders for everyone and that’s allowed ⚠️

JS has been taking Aderall since he was 7 years old and AMA-WADA knew that...
Adderall doesn't make you high if you have ADD/ADHD. It simply makes you normal. These people are talking about their experience with illegally abusing it. Not good.
That’s a fact. Been taking it since I was little, just turns me into a quiet zombie. But people I know that don’t need it love the stuff. For all the “benefits” makes me feel dead afterwards.
I thought James was taking it because of the concussions? So maybe this is why Aldon boys get away with it! This for sure puts a new light on the James Stewart and Broc tickle issue
James got busted for adderall moron not a ped lmao also it was legal for him but he forgot to renew it and they made an example of him smh

@@pay2000 You are mostly accurate. But you definitely don't understand how the effects of Adderall. It's not like painkillers. Definitely could do those things on Adderall and probably extremely well with the focus and intensity it provides. It's not even something I consume for fun or a medical reason before you try and talk shit. Should know what you are talking about better though.
If you gave every rider in the main the same peds....the same guys that podium now, would podium.
with the amount of people that take adderall, don't you think we would have a lot more JS7's?
seriously, it was for post concussion, it's pretty unsafe to race or ride when you can't focus. ..
it can enhance focus to an abnormal level, this is true, but to think that James wouldn't have been just as dominant or as talented without it is insane. The guy was a wizard with bike control, and he had a do or die mindset because his family sacrificed everything.
Eye-opening stuff... from a guy who never took a PED. Now you have me thinking about some of the guys who were just mutant in core strength and could take such brutal abuse while racing 2 or 3 classes on race day.
I never dreamed of even thinking there may have been people doing this. I can see how your mind could run away with you and compel you to take them just in case the other guys are cheating... What a dirty side of our beautiful sport... If we could just get us people out of motocross, things would be much better (for the overly serious, that was a joke).
I do perceive, though, (no specific stories) that when powerful stimulants came into our culture in the 80s and 90's that some of our top guys were finding a lot of speed (pardon the pun) and endurance when their training programs were pretty weak.
I’m more worried about the pain killers.
I'm so old, I remember when Skunk #1 was an emerging performance enhancing drug, and we had no idea it protected against head injuries.
i aint point fingers but if u think about it the top guys are on such an other level...
maybe not roids but other supplements to help you recover faster, or focus more and even bags of there own blood so they have extra red blood cels to carry oxygen on race day etc.
e.g. tomac, sandbox and baker factory guys. (all ex cycling coaches might i add, which is a sport riddled with this shit)
im no accusing, but it sure is interesting on how these top guys can just be on such an other level.
also just ask yourself this question, why do the top 10 guys lap the entire field, and then theres a big gap to the next group of guys, are doing similar lap times, there almost x2 groups of racers in each race. next time u watch a moto at the end watch on the left side of the screen. theres almost a perfect line at 10th place where they go from 20 secs apart to like a few mins down.
I feel like these are all the "natural" guys, and then top 10 guys are just next level by such a margin then the next group are all so close.
at the end of the day top guys check out and find an other gear after 15 mins... its just odd how much better they are.
Really when you look at the top guys Tomac is the only one who has an excuse to be a beast. I.E. great genetics and training at altitude since he was a pup. His body already naturally does this. But for Anderson to run with Tomac after an injury and Webb winning supercross its obvious what is what man. If theses guys are using they wanna come on strong mid pack about this time/ watch the baker boys as only time will tell.
I mean, I know that John Tomac didn't like the idea of taking illegal supplements when he was road racing and that led to his quitting road racing professionally. The training these athletes have to go through to get to the condition they're in is insane, and I'm sure that some use illegal PED's, but it wouldn't surprise me if others weren't. Tomac would probably deal with the wrath of his dad if he took illegal PED's, but he trains arguably harder than everyone else does and has lived in high altitude his entire life. Could lead to his being in better shape, but could also make more oxygen that much easier for him at lower altitudes and possibly imitating some of the recovery effects that drugs have caused.
@@brianlanglois9597 That's what I am saying his body is already doing some of this naturally. Yeah his dad would kick his ass, man your right on.. that's why he stopped racing you had to cheat to win. We all know they are close and John would never let Eli risk his life, he has more then enough money to stop. I think this will push the guys like Tomac and Roczen out tho. We all know Kenny could use the help.
The top guys are on another lever in anything, that is why they are top guys, and is to be admired. But there is something a bit new. There are no top guys who can consistently win races. Marty Smith, Weinert, Tony D., DeCoster, Hannah, Johnson, Stanton, RC, Villopoto, all racers who regularly left the pack behind, did not take performance enhancing drugs. They are all pretty much the same speed today. Now what kind of drug makes everybody the same stinking speed???!!! On another level? Who?
@@EarthSurferUSA I can't comment on all of those since many of those racers were before my time. Jeremy McGrath was a mix of a lot of work, having the best designed and well rounded bikes at the time, and natural skill. RC brought a lot of working out and training into the sport, along with training along with Aldon Baker. He moved up in the pro ranks as soon as he started working out and then everyone started joining in. He was untouchable for a few years until people started figuring out the right way to do it. Villopoto was an absolute beast. Arguably the best ever on a 250f and one of the best ever on a 450. If he could keep himself motivated enough and did race mx I think he could have been another RC and McGrath. James Stewart was natural talent who was absolutely unstoppable when he was on it. He's one of 2 people ever to have a perfect season, and he dominated. Now, he got caught with adderall and even with a prescription, that's straight up cheating. Anyone who's done adderall can attest to that. Now, are all the top guys cheating? Or is the level just super high now and only so many people can reach that level, let alone naturally. Wouldn't surprise me if a lot of the top guys were doping, but the field is deeper now than it was when only 3 or 5 guys were working out with the right program. Programs have evolved and I think that has a lot to do with the deep skill ceiling
I’m coming into this world to help you guys

@@Okheck You are not alone
I was prescribed adderall at 15. Probably needed something much sooner. But adderall is super addictive and will mess you up. I’ve had so many issues mentally and physically since then. I still crave it and I’ve been off of it for 5 years.
Btw I started taking more than prescribed
I am sorry...if it was all about pure fitness, Eli would win every race.
If it was all about fitness I would still be winning races . I’m a halfway decent natural skilled racer (of the gang I ride with I have the least natural talent ) but I’m a very fit person so my speed was the same start to finish. Now if it was a motocross race then my competitions better talent was not my friend. But when it was a 5 to 8 hour Enduro I was the king. A few years ago they revamp the Enduro series to make it more user-friendly and that’s about the same time my results got worse. Used to be by the gas stop everybody but me was dragging But now at the gas stops everyone is standing around playing cards and smoking cigarettes. As I’m over there in the corner crying because I know I have lost my edge
Rad topic! I believe, let the riders do that stuff. The damage and wear and tear the put on their bodies is unlike anything or any sport out there. If it heals them faster and that’s what they wanna do let it ride.
Sexton is at the top of the list after watching him take his helmet off and didn't even break a sweat or sit down after the 2nd moto at Washougal nobody is in that good of shape Tomac after the 1st moto looked like he was done both Lawrence brothers sat down and took off their helmets and both were drenched in sweat and massively tired Sexton didn't even look like he had raced looked pretty sketchy
Yep this interview is the exact definition of sexton this moto season, sextons been proving that’s he’s on peds every week he comes of the track looking like he’s been sitting on the couch
Thank gypsy this was ur best interview yet...u alright dawg...u look pale
What wouldn’t shock me is if sarms were a bigger component than most of us think. Think about it they didn’t become mainstream that long ago, they have great cardio performance enhancement benefits, and our testing is so little compared to most sports riders could easily get away with it if they don’t test for it, or just let it’s half like take it’s course which for almost all of them is no more than 30ish hours
People think PEDs are like body builder type shit so they don't think any riders are on them lol they enhance recovery and allow you to increase output... not just for big muscles....people are DEFINITELY using them.
I had a friend who did very very high-end business we’re talking billion dollar business deals and before a critical meeting he would take a half a dose of Adderall so he could stay focused.
Matt Riser he deserves jail time for that crime.
Cannibal Nectar The reason I bring it up is because it’s just like the athletes, Everyone was doing it and everyone was laser sharp focused, do it or go home, the athletes are in the same exact situation piles and piles of money to be made if you take this pill.
That’s why James Stewart was taking adderall. It increases focus and speeds up your brain. It’s like living in a slightly slow motion world but your at full speed. It’s crazy, executives are taking it, kids are using it for SAT/ACT tests, it’s getting out of control to where if you’re not taking it, you’re at a disadvantage.
You think adderall is powerful look at provigil or nuvigil.
I don’t believe you. What friend do you have that “did” billion dollar business deals on “half a dose” of adderall? Half a dose isn’t a thing. Neither is “doing” business deals worth billions. There’s ALWAYS more than one person doing a business deal that big. if not an entire company (Rabican)
Big thing I see is the traps, and the roundness on the shoulder caps.Some of them start walking around with there shirt off.
Sad. A few guys cheat and everyone has to decide to play the game or quit.
Sadly it's like that with nearly every single sport and competition these days. Even women are using steroids now. From track and field, weightlifting (cross fit), combat sports, tennis, football, basketball, baseball, soccer and everything in between. Even people in e sports are using stimulants like adderal or Ritalin and wakefulness promoting agents like modafinal. Its everywhere and most people have no idea.
Is it cheating if you don't get caught... Or is it playing the game. Are you willing to risk your life to win, if not how are you going to beat the guy who will? You may not like the game, but you'll never eliminate people riding on or over the edge of the rules.
Are you new to motorsports?
Coming from someone with ADHD, Adderall is one of the most accessible and shitty stimulants you could put in your body. I’ve taken it for years from elementary school through high school and higher education. I’ve been off of it for the last two years because of how it made me feel. The benefits are there but the consequences of abuse aren’t worth it.
Brandon Rolling yup you can’t sleep when your on that stuff
Vyvance
@@rallywithmason Vyvance is a bitch
Thank you I honestly doubt adderall would help you win think hurt you more than anything bad on the lungs
It’s just the government/pharmaceuticals version of meth /ice. you fail a drug test for the exact same thing with either or
Thought my headphones were broken for 10 seconds both times I started this video lol
Interesting take. New podcast with Sexton they discuss this and came to a different conclusion.
More on this please
You want more garbage with no evidence there is a drug problem in our great sport?
Thats the point. It's hard to get evidence on guys who have even been popped.
@@EarthSurferUSA guys have been recently getting popped but it's "non existent" huh?
The mad thing is cody,was telling us tj was on epo for months but he diddnt get flagged till afte the figh(AFTER HE LOST AND IT DIDDNT GET THE RESULTS REVERSED
How many times are they going to change the analogies

No ped will not give you talent. But it will give you tenacity! Drive! Agression! Stamina! Recover! They will put you in, and keep you in attack mode longer.

Look what happend to James Stewart years ago. He was the never the same after he got banned for a year for drugs
He got banned for 16 months, (a career engine period for most, no matter what stage of their pro career), for not filling out paperwork for the "career ending drug police" to clear a Doctor prescribed drug. James, his family, the factory, all his sponsors, everybody he worked with and the fans got ripped off, and nobody in the industry stood up for James. A life long commitment until retirement is needed to do well in this sport, and some outside force dictatorship can end your career when they "feel" they want to flex their unaccountable muscle. You can't sue the government drug police. If James is all they have,--there is no drug problem in USA MX.
A career "ending" period for most
@@EarthSurferUSA Why you think nobody stood up for James?
@@bunnymanmoe8819 nobody
It's possible the drug helped him, but that's not very good evidence for it. He was past his prime anyway plus being away from the sport for 16 months, those 2 things alone would end a career. So it can't be attributed to not being on Adderall, there are way too many factors.
So Aldon Baker is suppling steroids to his athletes? Is that what your saying ?
With absolutely no evidence, yea, pretty much. There is no performance enhancing dug problem in USA MX. He knows a lot about how these drugs work, but he has no evidence they are being used in USA MX. We have to always question guys like this, and make them prove it. He can't prove it, because a drug problem in USA MX does not exist. It remindes me of the President Trump/Russian collusion crap that did not exist.
@@EarthSurferUSA Dudes are getting caught so how is it not a problem in USA mx?
Earthsurfer has a problem with this topic. Tickle got popped, Craig got popped... Come on dude.
@@EarthSurferUSA Well it does! And trump is in crap all up to his hair!!
@@GYPSYTALES The only problem I have with this topic is who does the drug testing and sets the rules. I think that responsibility should be done within the USA MX industry, (possibly by the AMA), and not some unaccountable, non-elected outside government agency who can not be sued for destroying the twilight of James Stewart's career, (for one example). I think they stalled for a year on Tickle's case,---a year, Brock had no idea what was going to happen to his career.
You can’t tell if someone is legitimately ADD or ADHD from the outside. James could very well legitimately have the condition and the treatment for it does work. Yes it’s a stimulant but it doesn’t have those wiring type effects if the person has he condition and the dose is right.
Just from being around James, obviously not a doctor, he never seemed to have the typical ADD.
@@GYPSYTALES fyi ADD and ADHD look very different , I'm ADD and 95% of people can't tell. Not defending JS here (I think he doesnt have eather one because it would have been a problem way earlyer in his career, ie he would have been on that shit for years already). Thats crazy how adderall affected you, tried it for a month when I was a kid (help me focus a little better but made me shut down socially) FTS
@@aeroe2144 correct! People who need it, don't react the same way to those who don't need it. Also, like any drug, you'll end up with a certain tolerance towards it after a While.
yep and to touch on your point too, JS may not have seemed to have adhd/add because his medication may have somewhat regulated how he appears from the outside.
I am diagnosed adhd and have not found a difference in my riding on or off ritalin. I wasnt diagnosed until i was an adult. I dont take stupid risks as much, but that could be age related.
I just don’t see adderall being an advantage its hard on your cardiovascular system, and probably have more negative effects than anything. I doubt you already want to increase heart rate then its going to be racing probably wouldn’t even feel the adderall having all the adrenaline from racing alone. I just don’t see it being a big factor unless he had paperwork to do. To be honest I ride worse on adderall I get winded faster, and thirsty from dry mouth other than that no difference
look into UCI BMX testing Mike Kapes and Kyle Bennett. Kyle (RIP) was on the Olympic team and fishy shit went down. Kapes got "random" tested 2 days in a row, passes day 1 but fails day 2 when tested with Bennett. ended up taking a 2 yr suspension that basically ended his career. i think they stuck him with the failed UI to not lose funding for the newly created USA bmx olympic team because their lead rider failed for PEDs.
I would like to know what coach rob thinks about GW-51516 (cardarine) or SR-9009 (stenabolic)
No way after all these years I hear that Bubba was barred out sending that damn wall in Daytona🤣
Anyone who thinks PED's won't help a motocross/supercross rider has never raced.
There are several WADA and USADA testing facilities in the USA, UCLA being one of them
How does he not know if the testing is done by usada, wada, or some other party? That should be the first thing you research if you're actually doing your homework on PED's in any sport
You should correct the record. Dillishaw only tested positive for one fight. The rest of his samples were were clean.
"Mike Alessi - Awkward Interview"
Totally on PEDs, very emotional.
Mauhang used to be available at health food stores in the 1990's. I used it, had energy to get through a 10 hour workday and train on weights and pedal 18 miles too. Good stuff! Took one three times a week. Can't we just be watching racing and be happy for the result?

I’m down in south Mississippi and I used to help a good friend of mine at golden pine raceway at Loretta qualifiers and regionals and seen em all down here from Anderson to the Martin brothers (windham fan til the end) it would blow people’s minds the way some of the parents treated their children and what they would give their 13 year old son for a C class Loretta qualifier. One parent walked up to me while I was running the start gates and said hey Korey my son *#%*}* is so nervous I just gave him a Xanax to calm his nerves and help with arm pump and I was like wtf? It’s got a new owner which I hear has done an amazing job with the place but I haven’t been anywhere near it for years because of the typical motocross parents and their bullshit got me away from the sport. To me the best days of Mx and sx were 04ish to 2010ish (yes I know there were a lot of the same problems and everyone thinks their racing days were the best I’m no different and yes it’s debatable) but training facilities were waaayyyy fewer I mean millsaps training facility was the standard for training facilities (besides the blood doping baker factory for the top guys) but that’s just my opinion. Great channel great topics keep up the great work.
Btw I think the fastest I ever went through those whoops was after 6 beers at 19 years old the weekend before race day when me and randy (the original previous owner/great buddy) and a few more would jump off the tractors and dozers and just strap our helmets on for a test lap of a new jump or new section. Ahhh good times
Gypsy, in moto, the promoter is still the judge & jury. USADA or WADA only do the testing. They do not determine the enforcement or PR.
MX Sports doesnt care either.
They “take samples” so they can avoid litigation risk.
They don’t actually care about having a clean sport.
TJ Dillashaw was retested for epo for all the Cody fights and his 2 other previous fights. He passed all those tests. That's coming from the head of USDA Jeff Novitzky.
I thought that was the case while I was watching this.
Ok there was so much talk about how big Adam has gotten since the summer so what's the about? Are these guys really being tested for the right things
@Eric D. Trust me there’s loop holes look at Adam for example he was major hurt body mind just in general comes into sx on 250 last year and boom it’s like a freight train and he keeps getting bigger and bigger I’m not saying Adam had used something but I have my sucspisions it doesn’t add up to me

I used ride motocross 70 hours a week im guilty of an unfair advantage....i can do some amazing stuff one a bike....no matter what kind it is...cheating tjat is im quit practucing tommorrow so u ll can catch up...can i at least work on the 125cc 2 smoke against the 450while catching up...thanks
U know whats truly insane is i ride a motorcycle better than anyone u have ever seen...it took me a while to figure out 2 stroke an then ride like McGrath over big jumps..i retired from racing at 43 ish waited a while but was really curious to see what the modern era 4 stroke was capable of i got a chance for 10 minute straight held it pinned it was so superhuman strong as much as i enjoyed it....as was thankfull i got to try an 07 CRF 450 not the Race X the standard...i said this animal will wear me out it had so much race able power an too much traction it was nuts...i thought what kinda shape would i have to get in to ride it...forget how smooth i was...
Naturally i played 6 hours of tennis an worked out as hard as i could ran on the treadmill 8 degree 8 miles an hour broke the belt off it had my heart rate at 180 bpm stop sat with in a few minutes it was relaxed down to 42 bpm....then i went road racing and my brakes failed at 150mph not a good secind race....i was ableto get it down to 50mph an get off it...unhurt...but i ll get on a built 125 2 stroke an beat a 450....then ill get on the 450 an beat the 125 ....but there aint many like me i didnt get started till 30...
I tool my first Adderall before a university final, after days of cramming... I absolutely blitzed it, got a High Distinction for my exam 🤓
Just saying!! Barcia might be one of those individuals who doesn’t sweat like you and I do. This could be a way to look at this EPO Topic open you mind and research before just bashing the keys!!
True. My two sons would race and one would be lathered in sweat, the other as cool as a cucumber. The non-sweater just rode very loose and didn't fight the bike nearly as much. Both were winners.
My roomate in college had issues with over sweating and he worried it would hurt his professional career and had surgery and he simply doesn’t sweat now. Prio his hands were ringing wet with no exertion. Real dangerous surgery at the base of his neck.
Welcome to our new 2020 PED class haha
No matter what when you’re on a professional level especially in extreme sports. PEDs will be an issue. Every athlete and team are pushing their athletes and bikes to the absolute max so anyone saying they wouldn’t do that. Come on now. Especially when the amount of money that’s involved. Don’t be ignorant people lol
I started to agree until a certain point… just cause a guy finishes a race and he is calm and his heart rate normal, it isn’t fair to stipulate he is on ped’s… that is ridiculous… some are natural winners and being calm with a low heart rate allows them to perform well naturally
Yeah, I wrestled and sometimes after a tough match you feel like your heart is going to explode, but I don’t really sweat much at all, even when I’m super hydrated. Some people are just like that. That being said I have no idea who uses PEDa and who doesn’t, but podium interviews aren’t any good way to guess
Thoughts on Tadej Pogacar then?
Not defending TJ Dillashaw, but that information about him popping against Garbrandt is not true. He did not and that is why the fight is still ruled in Dillashaws favor. That is not true and the information is out there if you did the research. That information was put out by Joe Rogan and he refuted the claim after being called out on it.
There's articles out there about USADA retesting his old samples from previous fights. Also USADA tested multiple samples for TJ that all failed for epo. You might want to re investigate your comment.

No i think you should re-investigate your comment. I didnt claim he didnt fail other tests. I claimed he did not fail the garbrandt tests nerd.
@@The_Professor814 Lmaoo. No research done. Just parroting what you’ve read in comment sections. SMH
@@The_Professor814 Jeff Novitgky publicly came out and said TJ's samples for the cody fights and his 2 previous fights dating back to ufc 200 were all retested for epo and TJ passed all the tests.
Don’t misunderstand me-I do enjoy listening to Rob Beam, and I appreciate his analytical nature. However, I have some significant criticisms regarding Rob. What are his qualifications beyond education that entitle him to label himself as a physiologist? Does he possess any documented scholarly contributions, or is he merely another opportunist profiting from products, portraying himself as an authoritative figure without providing any substantial educational credentials?
They need to break up the classes
pros and then factory pros
Untested and then tested
People come to watch their loved ones race just as much as they come to watch the best riders race. More classes means more money for the sport anyways.

adderall is literal synthetic meth my bro. its not as intense but its basically the exact same thing and high.
Great show.. The testing labs/organizations are creating winners and losers in boxing Deonta Wilder has been protected form fighting two maybe more opponents that where his mandatories. The labs found them both positive and with that alone, it took both guys out with suspensions for years. Both guys where later cleared but lost the best years of their boxing careers.
Did you really just try and say Wilder is being protected from fighting certain guys when he's literally fought all of the most dangerous guys in his division and never backed down from taking any fight and even the fight with Joshua that didn't happen had nothing to do with him it was Joshua and his camp that avoided the fight. You might want to look at some other boxers first that actually hide from certain guys before you day that about Wilder considering everyone in the boxing world has him known for fighting who ever. Horrible example.
Povetkin wasn’t suspended for years lmao he literally got cleared. Why lie ?
@minibikemafia he’s wrong about everything he said. Three people failed a drug test prior fighting wilder.
Povetkin 2016
Andrzej Wawrzyk
Ortiz 2017
Neither one of those guys where suspened for years.
Ortiz popped dirty in nov 4 2017 and was cleared in 2017. He literally fought dec 8 2017. And on to fight frontal 4 months later.

You might not want to be so emphatic about a drug you know nothing about. For people who are diagnosed with ADD or ADHD they might be prescribed Adderall because they need it to help with the chemical imbalance in their brain. For those of us taking it legally for a diagnosed medical issue, it helps in our day to day life with concentration, organization and many other things. I like your channel a lot but I was very disappointed to hear you talk about seomthing so matter of fact that you clearly are not educated on.
I was prescribed the same as a kid for ADD
@@GYPSYTALES I'm interested to know if it worked for you as a kid. It definitely had the opposite affect that's it's supposed to on you as an adult. Obviously our brains change a ton from child to adult. I really enjoy your channel and I will keep listening. Just got me a little riled up to hear you talk about Adderall like its crack for everyone. Because that's just not the case.
@@daverichardson6334 when he was a kid they probably didn't have 30s. Those things are out of line. Need it or not if you take 30 mg or more a day your a tweeker. You take 5 vivarin you feel like a tweeker
