Over the last century many athletes have been suspended from sport, had titles and medals stripped and received sanctions for testing positive for one of the banned substances (Timothy Herman 6). A major story that occurred in 2013 was Lance Armstrong admitting to using performance-enhancing drugs. An interview that aired on January 17, 2013 with Oprah Winfrey was the first time Lance admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs (6). Lance admitted to using the following banned substances; EPO, testosterone, cortisone, HGH and illegal blood transfusions (6). In October 2012 the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), a non-profit, non-governmental organization and National Anti-Doping Organization for the United States (USADA), released more than 1,000 pages of evidence of doping allegations against Armstrong and his teammates (Greg Beaubien 7). After the evidence was revealed, Armstrong was stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and had to return the bronze medal he won in 2000 (9). Cycling is a very common sport to find athletes using performance enhancing drugs. For example, according to the USADA report on Armstrong (Timothy Herman 6). Armstrong didn't just use one drug to enhance his performance, he used multiple drugs (6). During the test, Lance was found to be undergoing blood doping (EPO), using corticosteroids and testosterone. All these drugs are banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), a foundation created through a collective initiative led by the International Olympic Committee (Dictionary). EPO......half of the document......queries to be greater. Performance enhancing drugs will always be around, but if we can't control them now, the effect it could have in years to come could be much greater than it is today (Jonathan Finnoff 293). People are getting smarter and with that drugs will become more effective and stronger than ever (294). Both professional and non-professional athletes are turning to PEDs as a means to achieve better performance. This act is not only wrong but is ultimately classified as cheating which can have a noticeable effect on the human body during performance moments and even in the future. The future of sport will continue to grow and athletes will improve, but let this happen naturally and not because you have ingested or injected an illegal substance, banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency..
