The people who think coke isn't a PED

[tko222]

cocain made jones from C level athlete to B level athlete...!.lol

 

[taedium]

Here's an experiment for you.
Try fighting someone who has been smoking freebase, or just watch any clip of several cops having trouble constraining a person high on coke/crack.

 

[Doug22]

You seem pretty sensitive to that for a guy who has been throwing around addict insults. I think it hit too close to home for you




I don't give two shits what you are or aren't against. In fact, I don't even give one!

Now, please get back to Googling porn. The odds of you seeing a vagina in real life are probably slim to none. But I am sure you are just a few videos away from considering yourself an expert

And those 'idiots' are providing a hell of a lot more useful information that you sitting at home Googling stuff you know nothing about from people who have never done it themselves. Were you just that desperate to be part of the conversation or to be an asshole? It seemed like the latter was your primary goal.

And the people saying it was a PED in non-competition situations for actual competition later when clean were the non-users. What a surprise.

Your posts reek of childhood sexual trauma. I'm sorry for you.

Anyone know where the sports medical fraternity stand on this?

If cocaine is not viewed as having any directly applicable properties to sports/sports training then I think Jones's failed test is not such a big issue really.

If cocaine is considered to be of value to a user in terms of performance or of training ability, then you'd have to expect the UFC to strip him and suspend him.

Anyone know for sure which it is? I don't have a clue really, it's not a common drug for a sportsman to be caught with, as far as I know.

i've grown weary of trying to explain it to people. They will just say that you're a moron and provide 0 evidence to even attempt at countering.

Here is an odd documentary on the effects of drugs. They have addicts do a bunch of test sober and then on drugs. The coke guy managed to move a lot more furniture coked up than sober so maybe it is a PED for shit work.

Effects on Performance

The effects of cocaine on performance are minimal and are limited to increasing arousal and alertness with low doses. As the dose increases, detrimental effects such as reduced co-ordination and unwarranted aggression are frequently reported.
Side-Effects of Cocaine

Myocardial infarction (heart attack)
Cardiac arrhythmia (abnormal rhythm of the heart)
Cerebral hemorrhage (ruptured blood vessel in the brain)
Seizures (fits or convulsions)
Confusion, paranoia & delirium
Irritability & restlessness

It makes you more aggressive and more resistant to pain, it also makes you less tired so you can work/train more. It is also great in high altitudes.

Cops have lots of problems taking down people high on cocaine, some even take gunshots like nothing and keep attacking.

 

[ZombieXIV]

I do cocke sometimes to enchance everything (except sexual performance).

Funniest typo I've seen in a while.

 

[VulcanNervPinch]

Simply being on a substance while doing an activity doesn't make it a ped. I've lifted weights while drunk; hit the heavy bag after smoking weed. By your logic, alcohol and pot improves performance.

Because they were idiot drug addicts. Go to bodybuilding gym and ask for some coke to get ripped. You'll make somebody's day (they probably use as well but for Rec purposes).

WTF, people? I quoted the comment I was replying to right in my fucking post.

Lmao this thread is full of 15 year old trolls who've never even seen cocaine in person. Anyone that think they'd be able to fight while on rails has obviously never done any drug.

Sugar Ray Leonard fought while high on cocaine
Laurence Taylor played football while high on cocaine

with a little research you could have quite a list

 

[bigfische]

Huge Jones fan here..
Cocaine IS , and has always been performance enhancing for a pro athlete. It is as effective if not more than roids.

If you don't think it's a PED, you're a massive dork who needs to get their head out of their asses.

What in the hell is this crap?

 

[ancientonion]

It offers no benefit and actually I see it as a hinderance.

Especially if it's being abused. There are almost no functioning addicts.

 

[kflo]

Jones isnt a bodybuilder....i don't get your analogy.

Idiot drug addicts? They were at the peak greatness of their sport just like Bones...

So what is he? An occasional idiot?

Id say sugar ray and lawrence were pretty ripped in their prime aswell . So was tyson.

what fight did ray use coke?

i thought he started during one of his retirements.

 

[kflo]

coke certainly took more careers.

 

[Hard Charger]

I'm staggered by the number of idiots who think he was doing it right before the fight or during press week.

He got busted on December 4th - a full month before the fight and then tested CLEAN after the fight.

It's not rocket surgery folks.

LOL I agree. He uses recreationally, I strongly doubt he's an addict. I imagine he's taken his fair share of X too. When you run with a party crowd, that's what you do, I know, I've been there. But it was always easy for me and my friends to separate work and pleasure. No one I know was sitting around at work with a white pile on their desk gettin their buzz on and closing deals.

Coke = GOAT

You do what?

You may be helping a fella out with the latter.

 

[SlicerDM]

The people who think Coke is a PED has never tried Coke so step down.


Take a line and tell me if you're in fighting shape after that buddy.

 

[King of Fists]

I think cocaine would do far more harm than good for training. The majority of the studies on it show that its benefits are more psychological than physical and that many of the physical effects are capable of being very detrimental especially in endurance activities. That said, the psychological benefits are real and that's why it's banned in competition. Out of competition it will harm you more than it will help. In a grueling 25 minute fight like the one Jones just went through, it could be disastrously detrimental considering it's effects on heart rate and heat retention.

If LT could regularly do coke at halftime, I'm pretty sure a well conditioned fighter like Jones could handle it in a 5 round fight.

 

[thecrosby627]

Cocaine is good for getting to work in the morning (meth is better for it, but you'll stop going to work after a while).

Cocaine can cause heart attacks and cerebral hemorrhaging. Not a smart combination for what is basically an endurance sport.
