NEW WADA report exposes unique measures Russians take to cheat

Its not a steroid but its probably used to help stamina and heart, which is important for an athlete especially those who need endurance, in sports like cycling, tennis, boxing, etc.

For what it's worth, Victor Conte stated it was a powerful PED that enhanced stamina.

Any reasonable person knows the athletes taking it prior to the ban were simply exploiting a deficiency in the testing standards......

Cant really get into that, sounds just like every other rapper, he sounds a bit like french montana style with that lazy flow hook he did, and ****** tattoos, can't stand that tattoo trend. Im sorry Im more of a 1980-90s rap fan.

Dont be sorry do you. I love the classics too but Im no oldhead stuck in the past trying to pull a youngster aside trying to tell dem how it ought to be lol.

Wow, no wonder its bannned stamina is the main attribute for most athletes in endurance sports. Povetkins gas tank did seem better, i wonder why wlad klitschko never looked into using this stuff imagine wlad who didnt have to worry about stamina

Sharapova be like, "Meldonium ain't no thang!"

Let me guess, they all have a history of Diabetes in their family like Sharapova and that is why they was taking it?

I think that most of them just missed news about meldonium ban, as Sharapova did. Meldonium isn't such strong PED that a sportsman would like to use risking your career. Also there are not banned similar drugs, aren't they?

From an MMA/Boxing blog on yahoo, interesting read.

“Athletics athlete used a container inserted inside her body (presumably containing clean urine). When she tried to use the container it leaked onto the floor and not into the collection vessel. The athlete threw the container into the trash which was retrieved by the DCO. The athlete also tried to bribe the DCO. Eventually the athlete provided a sample which subsequently returned an Adverse Analytical Finding (AAF).”

WADA administered 2,947 tests on Russian athletes between Nov. 18, 2015 and May 29. The report claims that 49 Russian athletes tested positive for meldonium, 23 requested tests were missed, 736 tests were “declined or cancelled,” and 111 missed tests were due to “whereabouts failures.”

Meldonium has been banned in 2016 isn't it?

Who cares? They are professionals must know the laws updates.

A PED is PED and rules are the rules.

If you get caught...you get caught, no excuses.

Fck Povetkin, I was damn hyped for that fight, and he lost a second and maybe last title shot.

Really don't matter how strong it is clearly it was used with the INTENT to help athletes improve their performance. Most PED's at one point in time wasn't banned because nobody knew about them!
