This is the level at which I find myself now, which is about four points below what was normal, healthy, non-EPO baseline for me before the madness:
You can also compare the above to an intermediate blood test done during my "glory" days in 2006 when (almost) fully, fully charged.

I'm confused. You're proud of your blood levels, why?
ReplyDeleteI came across this blog via someone elses so I may be a little out of tune on why, but I'm just asking. Most of what I encounter is all political or complaining about stuff. Never blood stuff.
Good stuff otherwise
Not proud. Just posting the two for comparison so that the effects of doping are clear.

ReplyDeleteJoe--did you guys rarely do UCI blood tested races (I know you did a ton of UCI races), or did the team know in advance and make sure you were sub-50?
ReplyDeleteJust curious.
