angina medication again LOL..the other curler dude was also taking angina medication LOL...
now the doping allegations would be on point if the above athletes participated in endurance events...but bob sled and curling have nothing to do with endurance at all...the bob sled is maybe 5-6 seconds of sprint that is easily handled by the human bodies natural V02 max levels...there would be no gain whatsoever to the athlete neither during training leading up to the event or during the event itself...plus the bobsled girl tested negative for it a few days prior...
if this was an anabolic steroid I could clearly see the advantage to her if she took it during pre-event training...but this specific type of drug has literally no effect on strength or recovery, it is exclusively for endurance....even at that it is what I would call 3rd grade doping...no significant gain...its in the rank of that cough medication from vicks that gets athletes testing positive LOL...it is waaaaaay under steroids...waaaaaaay....
there was no obvious reason for these 2 athletes to take angina medication...

anyway it is amusing to see how naive people are about doping in general...all top athletes do it all the time...you can not afford to miss out on the miraculous recovery that steroids provide...a 2-3 day cycle with 2-3 day clearing time is almost guaranteed to pass undetected and you get to keep the advantage for months because the competitor who did not dope is having recovery issues and can not train as hard as you can...its not about strength any more...people keep thinking ben jhonson...its about recovery...
