I'm talking more of a speed type substance, not muscle gain.

[–] 0x0@infosec.pub 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Its ok to just write meth you know

[–] csolisr@hub.azkware.net 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm not sure if they allow actually illegal substances in the Enhanced Games, though

Steroids are illegal in America, I'm sure meth is legal somewhere

I was assuming otc. I have a meth prescription

[–] suxen_tsihcrana@anarchist.nexus 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You have a prescription for desoxyn? That's incredibly rare

[–] chocrates@piefed.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nah, I call it meth but it's just Vyvanse and Adderall. An amphetamine but not methamphetamine

Nope not meth at all

Yeah, an energy boosting substance should be more apt for quick sprints. Again, as I mentioned above, most of the "enhanced" athletes are coming back from retirement - giving 120% from a degraded muscle can (and here, did) give less of a payback than giving 100% from a muscle in its prime.

The opposite I think, meth doesn't magically make you stronger or faster (it just feels like it does) but it keeps you going for longer.

but it keeps you going for longer.

Specifically, mentally going. The majority of olympic level athletes are not 'flagging' due to not being able to keep their mental focus while pushing through pain/fatigue, it's due to actual physiological reasons as your energy stores deplete and muscles suffer damage.
