I dunno if you guys heard but MMA was recently forced to start random drug testing instead of the standard scheduled testing and since they started only 3 months ago there have been career altering drug busts
- Jon Jones for cocaine
- Anderson Silva for steroids
- Lombard (relatively famous MMA fighter) for steroids
- Nick Diaz (weed obviously)
This is only a few months in. Joe Rogan commented today that the problem with steroids is an epidemic today and every athlete wants an edge at all costs.
I know the NBA is not a sport where being buff really benefits you but the benefits of certain steroids can help you recover from games better, have better stamina, etc.
I'm just curious if the NBA does the same random drug testing that actually works or if they do that lame shit where they tell you months in advance so you can cycle around it.
The last time I read the policy, it said only during the offseason which is a HUGE joke if thats true.
