Hair testing is the way to go for testing PEDs'

[Frighteous]

Link? I think USADA know what they are talking about when they say that some are only detectable in blood.

they also wanna make sure they keep business

Yup, hair last longer than any kind of test available.

The hair of Napoleone Buonaparte has been tested some time ago, I think in the last 20 years, to see if arsenic poisoning was the real cause of his death. Considerable arsenic was discovered. The hair samples were nearly 200 years old. That is how reliable it is.

When did they create a hair test for PEDs?

Depends of the intensiveness of the procedure. Hair cannot be copied it is like your dna. Your genetic make-up is in there.

toxic substances in the blood are quickly deposited into tissues which makes blood tests less accurate than hair samples.

all you need is a shampoo to beat a hair test. i've done it before, i know people who've done it. it's easily bypassed.

i know all about it being DNA and a map of what you've taken throughout your life.

they can look back and tell you what drugs you've ever ingested, be it on purpose or by prescription whatever. but it's not fool proof and it's not a 100% on detecting every time, if so, i wouldn't have had a few jobs that i've had before.

there are more than enough products out there that can cover up and mask or flat out strip your hair of toxins, that anyone can buy at any head shop across america, and salons. i'm telling you, it is too easy to cheat a hair test, just as easy as a piss test, maybe even easier because you get to use the product at home before going into the test.
with urine, some times there is someone watching you piss, which would make it harder to cheat if one was using fake urine. although you can drink a bunch of the drug test passing tea at home, but the synthetic urine is easiest.

if the average joe can pass a hair test by buying a product over the counter to pass a hair test, what do you think a professional surrounded by professional trainers, doctors, etc, could do?

I believe it would be a great idea and it does actually make a lot of sense except for one little problem... you have to actually have hair for it to be tested. Guys like Bernard, Bradley, Floyd etc. have been shaving their heads for years, and hair length is what determines the weeks/months/years of what has been in a persons system. Hair strand testing would actually require all fighters to grow their hair out and you know that's not gonna happen. Actually, if they tried to impliment it you might would see a lot of fighters start showing up sporting a bald head lol.

I feel that you are not correct when you say that a hair shampoo will beat the air test. Common sense tells me that the drugs sought for by the test, are inside the hair strand itself, or in the follicle, not the outside.

lame, your making up as you go along the way. Hair has a genetic makeup which is composed of protien strands. It's inside not outside you can't wash it out lol..

Dumbass! Obviously you don't know what your talking about and maybe your a certified ****** who loves make believe stuff hehe

Hair testing is good for drugs, but it would not tell the testosterone or red blood cell count. The two most important thing in determining how clean is the fighter of the performance enhancers
