In Response To: Should you even drug test? (Jesse Israel)

Drug testing is the worst thing that ever happened to powerlifting. Look at bodybuilding, and strongman they are far more popoular than powerlifting. Everybody knows who Mr. olyimpia, is or who the worlds strongest man is and neither one of those is drug tested. Even in powerlifting it is the multi layer non drug tested guys that get all the coverage in the magazines. Look at how many drug tested feds there is in powerlifting, it is the biggest reason that powerlifting has 100 differant feds, most of these feds claims to be drugfree. The only way powerlifting will ever be mainstream is to get rid of all these so called drugfree feds. I mean in a sport that allows its lifters to wear gear that adds hundreds of pounds onto their lifts, yes even in the ipf, does drugs really make that much differance? I dont think so. You hear it all the time, drugfree lifters accusing a guy in the gym that dosnt even compete, that can bench 500 pounds with out a shirt, of being on drugs, when their wearing a 200 dollar bench shirt themselfs! A man can get more carry over out of a 35 dollar inzer blast shirt that is 15 years old than he can a good cycle of roids. All drug testing does is start a lot of controversy, and slander.
