Philippines Senior National Team Thread Vol. IV

[neo]

Maybe the ingredients are listed , but it could be ,that he did not research uf it is against WADA... Who among us read the labels before taking any food supplements. But of course, we are not hotshot basketball star or athlete who could be subject for random test.

I do. Even for energy drinks if its new to me especially if made in china thailand etc.and my bestfriend who is a gym rat does it also. Moreso becos he is health n body conscious. Sa professional athlete pa kya?

[neo]

If kiefer is aware of the banned substances, for sure he'll read the ingredients.. he might not buy that dust..

Regardless if he was fully aware, partially aware, or unaware, fiba did not buy his story (previously fiba gave much lenient sanctions). Bottomline, he is personally responsible and accountable to what he ingest in his body and ignorance is not an excuse.

But what if his teammate recommended it to him?The teammate also gave it to him in the locker room
That was the story i heard on why he drank it.

I think should be talked about internallt as it might have consenquence to our national team as a whole

Then it was even more important for him to check it.

So he lied for d benefit of d team? Good. Kasi regardless of his explanation, fiba will sanction him. Again its d player's responsibility n accountability to check what he ingest to his body.that is why he was sanctioned.

We should be thankful na nlex sia.otherwise, his pba team would raise hell. Pinahiram tpos masuspend dahil sa testing ng fiba at damay pba games?

i know you want to hold our athletes to a higher regard but i bet most athletes dont read labels of over the counter stuff. I cant blame him for trusting a friend/teammate

I am not blaming him or anyone. He is d one who will suffer d consequences of the choices he made. Dim just saying that d accountability rests on his shoulders. And partly, sbp for failing to educate our national players.

So we were lucky that only one of d three (if d gossip is true) who bit d dust was randomly picked.otherwise, we will be world famous again 4d wrong reason.

I don't mind having our PBA players eating unhealthy foods at times for as long as they don't get bloated as much as Beau Belga. Eating unhealthy stuffs on a seldom basis, I think, isn't that bad since these athletes could easily burn them out during games & practices.

For as long as they keep themselves fit & well conditioned, I don't find it a big deal if they consume some unhealthy stuffs at times.

Wag lang silang lumaki na parang si Belga.

This was also my mindset before, however, if you ever try to eat and drink correctly the difference is tremendous. But to reap the benefits, it has to be a really strict diet for a prolonged time (and I'm not talking about diets to lose weight). It is especially important for professional athletes. It is no wonder that instances like Kobe having his bone-marrow soup travel with him everywhere he goes is not surprising for athletes. They spend a lot on nutrition because they realize its results. And when you get on with nutrition programs, it tends to affect you holistically wherein you take care of yourself better overall.

I do to. And I also read reviews. Most supplements contain the same stuff. So I'm always looking to try something new and more effective. But I know a lot of guys who just buy supps without reading the label or knowing what it is for. Maybe Kiefer really doesn't know.

Anyway when it comes to supplements I'd rather stick to the tried and tested products from refutable companies. You're putting these inside your body not your car. Don't cheap out or experiment
