Default Hammer Nutrition's Endurolytes may not suck as much as they used to

They still have a pitiful amount of sodium that makes them almost worthless for electrolyte loss, but now they contain a healthy dollop of steroids.

Athletes are suing Hammer for causing their positive doping tests. Their lawyers are none other than Jacobs and Suh. Looks like they are expanding their practice .

Gott love this:

"However, the decision also stated that the Hammer Nutrition products analyzed in the case did not contain prohibited substances and the dissenter, Christopher Campbell, cited that a variety of sources, such as food or drink, could have caused the positive."

Isn't Cambell the same arb who found for Landis?

Jacobs knows how to pick the clean winners in need of a vigorous defense. In retrospect, the first paragraph of this article is quite humorous. Funny thing is he still has a link to it on the title page of his website.

The other funny thing is I don't think there was a whole lot for him to do in Jones's case, since her B sample was negative.

He should've created the "Marion Is Legit Fund" and padded his pockets a little more. Maybe set up a website using the acronym in the webpage title. Might draw more interest than the F!@# Floyd Foundation.

Given that even potent anabolic hormones and HgH don't appear to improve performance in well-trained cyclists, and that these are actually pre-testosterone hormones that in males just lead to your body down-regulating your natural production so you still have the same initial level, they are still worthless
