Doping is an every day news

Doping dominates the media because it’s too common in sports. Only in the last days the most sensational news:

  • sentence of 3.6 years to Italian Olympian athlete Schwazer,
  • The U.S. Department of Justice calls the damage to Lance Armstrong. The former cyclist, if found guilty, must pay a fine of $ 150 million
  • U.S. Olympian sprinter Crawford was suspended for two years from competition
  • Sheikh Maktoum’s 15 horses were found positive for doping and their coach, Al Zarroniwas banned for eight years
  • Spelman College has abandoned competitive sports also due to the spread of doping and corruption

From despair doping to the scientific doping

The bad news are never alone, so in a few days we have passed from condemnation of doping of despair, Schwazer to the deception carried out in a scientific manner, Armstrong. Doping is a deception which makes it look real (a result), which instead is false, because it is determined by the use of artificial substances. The human being has always been deceived and, therefore the form that we call doping there will always be. The question is to ask to ourselves what to do, as well as increased penalties, to create a sport culture really based on competitiveness and not on a fiction of it. The question is: “How do you find the strength that provides the doping through the normal training of body and mind?” If we do not commit ourselves to work in this direction will always be the question on every win. We must learn to master the desire to win through workouts without tricks.

Petrucci’s idea

Petrucci, president of the Italian Olympic Committee, said he hopes that Schwarzer will become ambassador in the fight against doping. Personally I would add, maybe in 10 years after he passed this time doing volunteer work in a field of leprosy.

When the norm is madness

Schwarz is the normalcy that becomes madness. Damilano was schooled, with a girlfriend champion and a native of an area of Italy where the sport is a positive value. He had all to continue to be the best, not only for results but for the sport culture expressed by his work. Instead  the unthinkable it has happened. Unthinkable only for one who thinks that we are always the same and that we cannot change our mind. Instead it happened, the boy despite the successes had a unstable personality, and he did not believe to succeed. So the easiest option is to use drugs and medical fraudsters. What it is the lesson of this story: never leave these athletes themselves, not just a coach or a manager must make use of expert psychologists who understand their minds and what they would be willing to do to win. Two years ago I did a lecture to the athletes of thea rmy to which it belonged, of course, the general said that my worki t was not necessary. Congratulations.

Madness Schwazer

One thing that goes bad can it get worse. It is the case of Italian track and field after the exclusion of Schwazer found positive  at EPO. Theguy did not understand yet that he has not only ruined his career but his whole life.
