I would imagine the top athletes won't be turning up because they wont want to tarnish their career they have worked so hard at, therefore it will be left to lesser athletes to turn up who are not going to be as good as the others. Therefore clearly they will not be breaking any records in mass numbers. Any top athlete turning up would automatically put a cross against them in many people's eyes, and I don't think the top tested sports like athletics/rowing would look too kindly on them coming back and claiming to be natural to the public.
@@daveaglasgow just because they're a top athlete naturally, does not mean they will be a top athlete on PEDs. it all depends then on how much of a responder to PEDs those athletes are. the best PED responding athlete could exceed the best naturally enhanced athlete for instance.
The talent pool will be smaller, and also be a subset of the population which self selects out all of the people whose genetics are good enough to make it to the top (where there are legit career prospects) without PEDS. So basically, MOST of the people who would be able to smash the records through the use of PEDS would not be the kind of athletes to actually take that step.
The guy in the video literally starts by saying "I broke Usain Bolt record" Yes there are many enhanced athletes that have broke world records, but nobody cares because first they can't participate in any official competition of any kind (unlike powerlifting or bodybuilding) and 2 the Olympics bodybuilding and it's audience have always had an anti drugs mind set, when people realise that any athlete is in drugs they're never taken seriously again (unlike powerlifting and bodybuildin)
The Olympics don't want the "Enhanced Games" to be a thing because it would be awkward to explain why olympic records are going to stay unbroken by enhanced athletes...
Out of the top 10 sprinters of all time in the 100m pretty much all of theme except for Bolt have tested positive for some sort of PED at some point of their career... now if i was a re^ard that believed in fairytales i would be jumping up and down and saying Bolt was clean and the best as the same time. But im a realist. The guys at the olympic level have the best genetics in the world for their particular sport or discipline, they all work extreamly hard. If some of theme would be taking PEDS then the rest simply wouldn't be able to compete, a gentic freak on steroids will always beat a genetic freak thats not on steroids. Thats the truth and there's no way getting around it.
@@Star.Chaser yeah genetics are complicated. I don't think even with roids I'll never have the genetics for 22 inch arms but I've learned that my body (with proper training) is pretty good at flexibility/dexterity and endurance. Would I be TJ Dillashaw or Lance Armstrong if I took EPO? There really isn't any way to tell without doing it and I don't really want to lol.
Yes! He feels everyone should stay natural and learn to do the work and put in the time and to stay far way from these drugs as they are not needed when you know how to train correctly!
I would honestly love seeing both. Just so you know what human limitations are both naturally and unnatural. Realistic expectations are important and I think would help people be happy with their results.
Acting like they’re taking huge doses, for hypertrophy yes you need to take progressively bigger doses but for performance enhancing they take far safer doses because that most effective they’d take like one single dose of anadrol before the event
You’ll always be able to find a “doctor” who will say what you want to hear. So if you’re using the “I’m doing it based on the advice and consent of a doctor”, it doesn’t really mean much…
i dont like this because: 1. adding enhancement to athletes just gatekeeps smaller countries from being able to compete with the bigger countries. 2. It also disrespect the non enchanced athletes in history that came before them. that will have their records broken. 3. Having enhanced and non enhanced games the enhanced games may just over shadow the natural games. like how natural bodybuilding cant even compete with enhanced bodybuilding. 4. This encourages countries to make PED use legal in their countries. Proliferating PED use, making the market for black market peds bigger and encouraging younger and younger use.
1. Already happens, 2. Already happens, 3. Already happens. You're naive if you think the Olympics aren't already enhanced. Do you have any idea how unreliable drug tests are? Saying that, I still think an explicitly enhanced Olympics is a bad idea. The drug tests, while unreliable, do mean that athletes have to be smart and controlled with what and how much they take, instead of just going balls to the wall with PEDs and knocking decades off their life for the sake of a single competition.
1. How does it gatekeep smaller countries? Do you think elite athletes can't afford РЕDs in some countries? Then why don't we see these issues with bodybuilders who are able to get to the Olympia from all over the world? Weird point. 2. And what's the issue with that? Training improves, tactics improve, exercise science improves, legal supplementation improves, nutrition improves. Do these things not disrespect athletes from the past? For example, any more or less high level modern chess-player would absolutely embarrass any legendary grandmaster of the past in a game. So what? 3. Again, so what? You can't just pretend these things don't exist and don't make you a better athlete whether you like it or not. 4. Again, so what? РЕD use is already extremely high in countries where they're banned, and SАRMs are legal everywhere anyway. At this point the laws against it just help to ruin some people's lives and encourage people to lie about the way they achieve their results. And how exactly will legalisation make the market for "black market PEDs" bigger, if they will have to compete with more safe and regulated options?
PEDs are tricky when it comes to olympic sports. They primarily help strength and endurance, not much power (which is more about technique and genetics). In many cases, more PEDs won't work like they do in bodybuilding. Therefore, it is unlikely that current records will be easily broken, given that most elite athletes (if not all) are already on something. If it really worked like magic, trust me, someone would have already broken Bolt's record unoficially and uploaded it on social media just for fame. Secondly, poor countries do have access to basic stuff that works just the same. A lot of Americans already go to poor countries just for that because it is dirt cheap. People from all countries can get to Mr. Olympia level. Like Greg says in the video, it is engineered drugs specifically produced to go undetected that poor countries don't have. Nowadays it is not even drugs that carry records forward. It is equipments, apparels, recovery devices, training techniques, superior nutrition, etc that make the difference. People back then didn't have access to stem cell treatments for degenerating joints, now they do. Do you remember those LZR racer swimsuits used in olympics 15 years ago? It traps air, decreases friction, etc, and people who wore it were breaking records like crazy before they banned it. There are tons of things that help athletes, should we ban them all? I'm not even pro-steroids (I just don't care), but I don't see why people are so allergic to it, like that's the only thing to take into account and not, for instance, sleeping capsules that help athletes recover faster. We can't even control it like we control swimsuits, but we act like we do so we feel better about it.
I get your point but I think the problem with this concept is that it normalizes taking these sort of drugs in a sporting context to a potentially huge amount of young impressionable people. This will definitely increase the amount of people who will consider taking PDS. And what ever you think about the ethics of putting things in your own body the fact of the matter is that these substances do pose a health risk and aren’t completely understood
It's going to be older athletes or are at or near retirement who have little left to lose competing at first or athletes on the fringe of making the olympics. The record numbers are going to have to be significantly better though for this to take off.
Have you ever seen these horse races, where horse's legs break on impact, since the strength of their bones cannot match the power of their muscles.its pretty grim. once you open the floodgates there is no coming back. Olympics is about what a human body can do, not what a hormonal cyborg thinks can do. We should all see the reflections of ourselves in these athletes, having the same parts, same wiring, different life/training... If anything, Olympics should get more strict about their anti/doping rules and be ahead of the curve in chemistry. The HRT, my dad is 60 and he approached his 50s like a grown up, lower testosterone is a part of the process, you get old you lose muscle, you slow down, you spend more time with family and grandchildren... But he never fucked with his hormones in the first place.Getting older the natural way is a privilege...a privilege the enhanced olympics contestants will never have
i see where Greg is coming from, but i think it is very problematic in the long run. If you have the enhanced Olympics become more popular than the regulated Olympics, due to factors like faster runners, stronger lifters etc. it is heavily going to promote regular everyday people to take ped's even though they aren't required to. Thoughts?
What condition? These aren’t bodybuilders these are athletes they don’t use the doses bodybuilders do because their only looking for performance enhancing not more muscle and performance enhancement doesn’t require a long 1.5 gram cycle to get their
I know it’s a joke however from my understanding the heart gives out/weakens because the mass/size of the body, the heart must work impossibly hard thus degrading its strength over time. Is this inaccurate?
I remember Ben Johnson in the 1988 Olympics. He bolted out of the start of the 100m sprint about 5 ft in front of Carl Lewis, and continued his lead…9.78 sec. I think he got popped for Winstrol and Dbol.
I think the thing people are concerned about isn't people doing low dose TRT. It's the 18 years old who decide to start shooting high doses of a variety of PEDs in order to qualify for a sports event. That's messed up. I compete in powerlifting, and I don't know anyone who's using PEDs, and am glad I don't feel pressured to do PEDs just to win a competition.
On top of actually paying athletes, the major concept is that it is being open about competitors using PEDs. Currently Olympic athletes have to either be natural, have their home country pay off the regulators, or take dangerous untested cocktails their coach made in their bathroom.
And on top of that they aren’t letting Joe blow off the street juice himself to the gills and run a race. Your cycle is monitored and you have to have good health markers
"as if people in the Olympics aren't already using Performance Enhancing Drugs" thanks Greg, I've been reminding people for years that these athletes in the olympics are enhanced. the IOC only does "random" drug tests (if you understand random, you see why they never catch anyone unless they are from Russia. and I'm pretty sure that only happens because of politics), and even if their testing randomness isn't faulty the athletes can just cycle off before testing (or the designer option you mentioned haha)...
People push their limits to get into Olympics, pushing their limits in enhanced stuff might not end well for many. Personally think this is idea is promoting the wrong things
Most of these athletes are people who have been banned from competition for failing in the past so it’s no surprising is there are world record holders that nobody’s ever heard of.
Remember when the Olympics was an amateur comp?? lol. I’m old. I think eventually we’ll land on a world where amateur athletics are natural and pros are enhanced.
I absolutely agree that we should be allowed to do whatever we want to, as adults, no children. I love to watch American football and bare knuckle boxing. In football and regular boxing, the brain damage from low impact head blows is definitely a problem. Boxing because padded gloves are used, which means many more blows before a knock-out. I don't know the difference with bare knuckle boxing, but the fights are short and quick knockouts happen fast. A blow that knocks you out in that way, just isn't the same as getting pounded with gloves for long fights. I would like to know what the actual injury comparison between regular boxing and bare knuckle boxing is. Not an opinion, please. From someone who has either read scientific papers or is knowledgeable about it. I knocked myself out half running and hitting a wood scaffold board years ago. The injury caused me to have seizures. So I speak as someone who knows about head injuries. I'm still gonna watch these sports because today, they know what can happen. They choose to do it.
Coach, what if they announced The Fat Games where obese people competed against each other and received medals, would that be a good thing? You mentioned before that someone using and abusing PEDs is just as unhealthy as an obese person. What kind of influence would that have on young kids and even adults? If they’re not good enough at a sport, they would see the Enhanced Games and consider PEDs even more than before. The Fitness Industry is doing more than enough damage as it is. Enhanced Games would make it much worse. Knowledge is power of course, but in this climate with social media I would argue that influence is a greater power. The influence of the Enhanced Games coupled with the glorification of PEDs in the Fitness Industry could be catastrophic for society. The most important thing in life is not the most exciting displays of sport or making money, it’s our health. You’ve talked about that before and how health is above all these harmful things that society glorifies. Also, you’re assuming enhanced athletes won’t enter the Olympics if the Enhanced Games existed. Many still would if they can get away with it. More glory in the Olympics as a fake natural in their eyes. Thoughts?
The olympics are already enhanced and im quiet Sure Most Fans know that. Making an official enhanced Event might actually make the real olympics more Natural
So you would prefer we just continue to lie to young kids and tell them they can be just like their favorite sports stars when in actuality they will absolutely need to take PED's to come even close. Steroid-use is rife in almost every sport that exists. Every single sport that has some physical performance element has people at the top that use roids. The fitness industry is doing damage because they are being untruthful. They either tell people they can have godlike bodies "just buy our supplements", or they don't inform their audience about the dangers of steroid use. Also, you're assuming enhanced athletes don't already enter the Olympics - if this is your view on this subject, then please refrain from commenting on anything sport or training related ever again. I cannot understand how a grown person can be this ignorant. You're also implying that there will be more steroid users in natural competition when there is an available enhanced category, as opposed to now where there is no official enhanced category. How does that make sense? Lastly, what you're unknowingly suggesting is that we lie and hide the fact that there are so many steroid users out there in professional sports. It would be significantly better to educate people on what is being done, the dangers, and how to safely use PED's. You're the parent that doesn't want to talk and educate their teenager on safe sex because "they are too young to be taught about sex", as opposed to the parent who says "I know what teenagers do, I know what you are going to do, here is how to be safe - this is the options on contraceptives. Here is what will happen to your life if you have a child while you're still in school" Who tf are you to tell anybody what they should or shouldn't do? You're literally advocating for fake natties to be in the Olympics. Let the roid users have their own divisions. The testing will eventually catch up to the point where we would be able to accurately detect any form of PED's. Hiding it from the world isn't doing anybody any good. Very last thing, I recognize this comment comes off as angry and argumentative - I apologize for that. I'm working on my behavior
This argument is a red herring. Elite sports competition is not about health, natural or otherwise. People ruin their lives trying to be successful in athletic careers all the time. How many guys are out there flipping burgers and with a bunch of joint injuries (possibly even brain damage) who spent their whole teenage years trying to make it into the NFL but were just not quite good enough to get drafted? Professional sports is high risk/high reward, and drugs are only a small part of that.
Great video! It is good to see someone openly speaking about this with an open mind, even though we have different opinions (I personally don't think enchanced games are a good thing). Just as a contribution to this interesting debate, among the premises you adopted in the video, the main one that I disagree with is that allowing enhanced games to happen would be a way to achieve a plain field for competition both for natural and enchanced atletes. The reason why I disagree with this premise is that enhanced athletes at the Olympics are lying precisely because they want to have a competitive edge. In enchanced games, they would not have that. So I think it is plausible to imagine that many enchanced athletes would still try to bypass the testing system so that they can compete against naturals and keep the competitive edge. Indeed, this seems to be happening in some natural bobybuilding competitions, for example. Hope stakeholders can put some proper thinking into this to evaluate pros and cons and that the best decisions for the athletes, fans and society is taken!
None of the top guys with enter the enhanced games to keep their reputation. So the guys with worse genetics will blast just to be at the current level of the better guys
The Russian Olympic team has been banned for repeated violations. If a athlete wants to compete, they have to pass the test and compete as an individual.
A lot of you are forgetting how many other sprinters tested positive for performance enhancing drugs whilst competing and losing against Bolt… the only person beating that man is himself on PED’s 😂
hey Greg, you shoukld watch joe rogans podcast with the EnhancedGames creators. They cleared out a lot of misconceptions you seem to have about how E.G will work. Let the E.G. begin!
I think people don't really get it. Sports and especially the olympics have as a goal to promote health and friendship, it is not really about who can run faster or lift the heaviest weight. These are just things that people have a common love for and help them apreciate one another. Drugs should never be allowed. Yes the athletes wouldnt be as good and the profits would fall as a result, but it never was about the money and never should have been.
As a former NCAA Football/Track sprinter I am 100% against this type of stuff. I never used anything but whey pro but the problem is when people start using drugs then EVERYONE has to and people are just doing more damage to themselves. I think the same thing about bodybuilding.. i hope stuff like this doesnt catch wind. Just to be clear i dont support any sport that encourages drugs. I get people are already using them like Lebron but i think its just selfish af tbh.
I don’t think any sport encourages drugs but even the top athletes like LeBron are using them (which I don’t think he is by the way) but if he is so be it ,
@@conormayweather5474 well i was saying that about this video making a league for people to use drugs lol. and LeBron is 100% on drugs. he lost 30lb before going to the Olympics like 2 times in a row and gained the weight back within 2 month after- u can still find lips from espn of people commenting on how is it even possible. This is not possible for a in shape athlete- only a new lifter can do something like that naturally and even then its rare. Lebron is also connected with companies that find ways to utilize peptides and other things that arnt able to be caught on test to enhance his body (a lot of former basketball players have commented on it- most recently paul pierce. this is why we say he spends "1mil per year on his body"
It levels the playing field by allowing everyone to use anything, instead of those that have their government's drugs programme to stay ahead of the inadequate testing.
None of the top guys with enter the enhanced games to keep their reputation. So the guys with worse genetics will blast just to be at the current level of the better guys
Hey Greg, I'd appreciate if you would ever make a video about Smaev Andrey, he is a russian monster and you probably heard about him, I know russian and frequently watch his streams, but the problem is the russian community hates on him a lot, even he personally said that he sees a lot more positivity from the west, I think you could make his day by reviewing his training footage and expressing your opinion about him. Love your content bro
if enhanced olympics took off and they started testing natural athlets for real, 90% of the records would never be broken again and people would stop watching it. they are not testing them to make sure the show goes on. i don't get how people see 40yo kipchoge run a 2h marathon and say ,yea this guy hasnt seen gear in his lifetime'.
The funny thing most of the athletes already using peds in the Olympics, Tbol was developed especially for the Olympics because Dbol had visible side effects, they wanted something that was cleaner, back then it was allowed.
They’re already enhanced.

If you have the enhanced Olympics become more popular than the regulated Olympics, due to factors like faster runners, stronger lifters etc. it is heavily going to promote regular everyday people to take ped's even though they aren't required to.
Thoughts?
WE GETTING PREMATURE HEART CONDITIONS WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️💀💀💀
r video clip of a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of a new to do you have to do you
What condition? These aren’t bodybuilders these are athletes they don’t use the doses bodybuilders do because their only looking for performance enhancing not more muscle and performance enhancement doesn’t require a long 1.5 gram cycle to get their
@chickentoucher55 you should know, considering you're on steroids
I know it’s a joke however from my understanding the heart gives out/weakens because the mass/size of the body, the heart must work impossibly hard thus degrading its strength over time.
Is this inaccurate?
I remember Ben Johnson in the 1988 Olympics. He bolted out of the start of the 100m sprint about 5 ft in front of Carl Lewis, and continued his lead…9.78 sec. I think he got popped for Winstrol and Dbol.
id genuinely pay money to watch it if greg was doing a cycling event!
Greg is the master of getting really mad at something before anyone has said it😂
You have the right to do whatever you want. But not wherever you want.
This is excellent for naturally high T females. No more discrimination and hate because you're physically superior and natural born female.
This will save woman's sports. Think about it
You mean for trans mens sports.
a man on gear pretending to be a woman still has a huge advantage over a biologic woman on gear though.
I think the thing people are concerned about isn't people doing low dose TRT. It's the 18 years old who decide to start shooting high doses of a variety of PEDs in order to qualify for a sports event. That's messed up. I compete in powerlifting, and I don't know anyone who's using PEDs, and am glad I don't feel pressured to do PEDs just to win a competition.
More enhanced than last time🤌🏼🔥
egoing through this week of this week of this week of this week of this week of this week of this week of this
On top of actually paying athletes, the major concept is that it is being open about competitors using PEDs. Currently Olympic athletes have to either be natural, have their home country pay off the regulators, or take dangerous untested cocktails their coach made in their bathroom.
And on top of that they aren’t letting Joe blow off the street juice himself to the gills and run a race. Your cycle is monitored and you have to have good health markers
"as if people in the Olympics aren't already using Performance Enhancing Drugs"
thanks Greg, I've been reminding people for years that these athletes in the olympics are enhanced. the IOC only does "random" drug tests (if you understand random, you see why they never catch anyone unless they are from Russia. and I'm pretty sure that only happens because of politics), and even if their testing randomness isn't faulty the athletes can just cycle off before testing (or the designer option you mentioned haha)...
People push their limits to get into Olympics, pushing their limits in enhanced stuff might not end well for many. Personally think this is idea is promoting the wrong things
Yeah, it's just called "The Olympic Games"
Most of these athletes are people who have been banned from competition for failing in the past so it’s no surprising is there are world record holders that nobody’s ever heard of.
Same people would be competing lol
Bodybuilding is too subjective to be in the Olympics imo. Judges have too much of an incentive to be biased towards their own country
We already have an enhanced olympics. They’re called ‘the Olympics.’
Your point is very valid.I agree 100%
Remember when the Olympics was an amateur comp?? lol. I’m old. I think eventually we’ll land on a world where amateur athletics are natural and pros are enhanced.
twitter keep it was the first quarter earnings of a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of
Paul Smith is the highest level athlete in Strongman that I can confidently say is Natural at open weight.
Thanks for covering this Greg - it's a great idea in many ways! ;)
It’s getting harder and harder for naturals by the day.
it feels like were allowing them to customize there character and develop super powers. like a video game style of sports
Believe it or not, yes.
There are people that think all Olympians are natty
That’s yohan Blake
"Proud enhanced athlete" new movement loading🤣
Enhanced Chess 💪
It’s called buttplug
I absolutely agree that we should be allowed to do whatever we want to, as adults, no children.
I love to watch American football and bare knuckle boxing. In football and regular boxing, the brain damage from low impact head blows is definitely a problem. Boxing because padded gloves are used, which means many more blows before a knock-out.
I don't know the difference with bare knuckle boxing, but the fights are short and quick knockouts happen fast. A blow that knocks you out in that way, just isn't the same as getting pounded with gloves for long fights.
I would like to know what the actual injury comparison between regular boxing and bare knuckle boxing is. Not an opinion, please. From someone who has either read scientific papers or is knowledgeable about it.
I knocked myself out half running and hitting a wood scaffold board years ago. The injury caused me to have seizures. So I speak as someone who knows about head injuries.
I'm still gonna watch these sports because today, they know what can happen. They choose to do it.
Coach, what if they announced The Fat Games where obese people competed against each other and received medals, would that be a good thing?
You mentioned before that someone using and abusing PEDs is just as unhealthy as an obese person.
What kind of influence would that have on young kids and even adults? If they’re not good enough at a sport, they would see the Enhanced Games and consider PEDs even more than before.
The Fitness Industry is doing more than enough damage as it is. Enhanced Games would make it much worse.
Knowledge is power of course, but in this climate with social media I would argue that influence is a greater power. The influence of the Enhanced Games coupled with the glorification of PEDs in the Fitness Industry could be catastrophic for society.
The most important thing in life is not the most exciting displays of sport or making money, it’s our health. You’ve talked about that before and how health is above all these harmful things that society glorifies.
Also, you’re assuming enhanced athletes won’t enter the Olympics if the Enhanced Games existed.
Many still would if they can get away with it.
More glory in the Olympics as a fake natural in their eyes.
Thoughts?
don't have been in a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of a lot more of a
If they aren’t good enough the enhanced games won’t help because the other people competing are also enhanced and actually skilled and talented.
The olympics are already enhanced and im quiet Sure Most Fans know that. Making an official enhanced Event might actually make the real olympics more Natural
So you would prefer we just continue to lie to young kids and tell them they can be just like their favorite sports stars when in actuality they will absolutely need to take PED's to come even close. Steroid-use is rife in almost every sport that exists. Every single sport that has some physical performance element has people at the top that use roids.
The fitness industry is doing damage because they are being untruthful. They either tell people they can have godlike bodies "just buy our supplements", or they don't inform their audience about the dangers of steroid use.
Also, you're assuming enhanced athletes don't already enter the Olympics - if this is your view on this subject, then please refrain from commenting on anything sport or training related ever again. I cannot understand how a grown person can be this ignorant. You're also implying that there will be more steroid users in natural competition when there is an available enhanced category, as opposed to now where there is no official enhanced category. How does that make sense?
Lastly, what you're unknowingly suggesting is that we lie and hide the fact that there are so many steroid users out there in professional sports. It would be significantly better to educate people on what is being done, the dangers, and how to safely use PED's.
You're the parent that doesn't want to talk and educate their teenager on safe sex because "they are too young to be taught about sex", as opposed to the parent who says "I know what teenagers do, I know what you are going to do, here is how to be safe - this is the options on contraceptives. Here is what will happen to your life if you have a child while you're still in school"
Who tf are you to tell anybody what they should or shouldn't do? You're literally advocating for fake natties to be in the Olympics. Let the roid users have their own divisions. The testing will eventually catch up to the point where we would be able to accurately detect any form of PED's.
Hiding it from the world isn't doing anybody any good.
Very last thing, I recognize this comment comes off as angry and argumentative - I apologize for that. I'm working on my behavior
This argument is a red herring. Elite sports competition is not about health, natural or otherwise. People ruin their lives trying to be successful in athletic careers all the time. How many guys are out there flipping burgers and with a bunch of joint injuries (possibly even brain damage) who spent their whole teenage years trying to make it into the NFL but were just not quite good enough to get drafted?
Professional sports is high risk/high reward, and drugs are only a small part of that.
Great video! It is good to see someone openly speaking about this with an open mind, even though we have different opinions (I personally don't think enchanced games are a good thing).
Just as a contribution to this interesting debate, among the premises you adopted in the video, the main one that I disagree with is that allowing enhanced games to happen would be a way to achieve a plain field for competition both for natural and enchanced atletes. The reason why I disagree with this premise is that enhanced athletes at the Olympics are lying precisely because they want to have a competitive edge. In enchanced games, they would not have that. So I think it is plausible to imagine that many enchanced athletes would still try to bypass the testing system so that they can compete against naturals and keep the competitive edge. Indeed, this seems to be happening in some natural bobybuilding competitions, for example.
Hope stakeholders can put some proper thinking into this to evaluate pros and cons and that the best decisions for the athletes, fans and society is taken!
Would look funny if no one in the Enhanced Games is able to break Bolts 9.58 and 19.19 world records😂😂
None of the top guys with enter the enhanced games to keep their reputation. So the guys with worse genetics will blast just to be at the current level of the better guys
That’s because PEDs can help you shave off like cca. 0,3s at best. You need monstrous talent to break 10s either way. Forget about the WR…
a lot are enhanced and just 1 step ahead of testers
Amazing video
Great Video! Thank you 🔥👏💪🫶
I couldn't imagine a regular docter saying it's ok to take ped, very good for your overall health.
They should call it the "Honesty Olympics"
I would definitely watch enhanced Olympics
There is a 0% chance this random guy has beaten Usain Bolt’s 9.58 100m world record
The Russian Olympic team has been banned for repeated violations. If a athlete wants to compete, they have to pass the test and compete as an individual.
This is for athletes past their prime or not good enough to make it in the Olympics
A lot of you are forgetting how many other sprinters tested positive for performance enhancing drugs whilst competing and losing against Bolt… the only person beating that man is himself on PED’s 😂
If everyone is on steroids then it’s fine they are all adults let them do whatever they want
It’ll be quite the reality check when the same athletes compete at the enhanced Olympics and the original Olympics
hey Greg, you shoukld watch joe rogans podcast with the EnhancedGames creators.
They cleared out a lot of misconceptions you seem to have about how E.G will work.
Let the E.G. begin!
I think people don't really get it. Sports and especially the olympics have as a goal to promote health and friendship, it is not really about who can run faster or lift the heaviest weight. These are just things that people have a common love for and help them apreciate one another. Drugs should never be allowed. Yes the athletes wouldnt be as good and the profits would fall as a result, but it never was about the money and never should have been.
C Bum getting all the benefits of building muscle from enhancements and then switching to natural would completely be unfair 😂😂
Damn he really called the nattys low quality
They are whether you like it or not
I mean, PEDs are called PEDs for a reason lol
As a former NCAA Football/Track sprinter I am 100% against this type of stuff. I never used anything but whey pro but the problem is when people start using drugs then EVERYONE has to and people are just doing more damage to themselves. I think the same thing about bodybuilding.. i hope stuff like this doesnt catch wind. Just to be clear i dont support any sport that encourages drugs. I get people are already using them like Lebron but i think its just selfish af tbh.
I don’t think any sport encourages drugs but even the top athletes like LeBron are using them (which I don’t think he is by the way) but if he is so be it ,
@@conormayweather5474 well i was saying that about this video making a league for people to use drugs lol. and LeBron is 100% on drugs. he lost 30lb before going to the Olympics like 2 times in a row and gained the weight back within 2 month after- u can still find lips from espn of people commenting on how is it even possible. This is not possible for a in shape athlete- only a new lifter can do something like that naturally and even then its rare. Lebron is also connected with companies that find ways to utilize peptides and other things that arnt able to be caught on test to enhance his body (a lot of former basketball players have commented on it- most recently paul pierce. this is why we say he spends "1mil per year on his body"
It levels the playing field by allowing everyone to use anything, instead of those that have their government's drugs programme to stay ahead of the inadequate testing.
Watch the scores/times in the enhanced olympics be exactly the same as the regular olympics
None of the top guys with enter the enhanced games to keep their reputation. So the guys with worse genetics will blast just to be at the current level of the better guys
Just call it Olympia Games
Hey Greg, I'd appreciate if you would ever make a video about Smaev Andrey, he is a russian monster and you probably heard about him, I know russian and frequently watch his streams, but the problem is the russian community hates on him a lot, even he personally said that he sees a lot more positivity from the west, I think you could make his day by reviewing his training footage and expressing your opinion about him. Love your content bro
if enhanced olympics took off and they started testing natural athlets for real, 90% of the records would never be broken again and people would stop watching it. they are not testing them to make sure the show goes on. i don't get how people see 40yo kipchoge run a 2h marathon and say ,yea this guy hasnt seen gear in his lifetime'.
All I'll say is baseball was a lot more popular when they were breaking the home run records
Yeah, imagine enhanced olympics come out and not a single record changes.
It should be called the Honest Olympics.
We’re are you living under a rock
Did you see that guy’s start? He didn’t break no record
The beginning of the video so funny Greg you hell man 😅
Consumers will have the say. If people watch it and invest time in it for entertainment then it will flourish. The moral argument doesn’t matter.
It's gonna be real fun when no world records will be broken :D
Horse breeders spend millions on sires, yet secretariats record has held for 50 freaking years. Explain that.
Greg, you’re always making me laugh man 😂
The funny thing most of the athletes already using peds in the Olympics, Tbol was developed especially for the Olympics because Dbol had visible side effects, they wanted something that was cleaner, back then it was allowed.
Greg i still cant believe you benched 405 natty
Cmon man
It’s because his arms are shorter than last time!
Does this mean you are gonna race in ? id love to see you win.
