While I don't doubt many athletes are being quite active.
I'd also believe it's a joke at this point for them to all take as many as they can no matter if they intend to use them or not.

    There was an article a few years ago where a few athletes were interviewed anonymously IIRC. It's a fuckfest. You put a lot of people in peak physical shape together, what are you expecting?

    Also people who by and large havent been out living wild social lives for quite a while. Laser beam focused on one goal. Once you have competed, one way or another the pressure is off and you are surrounded by people who are in the exact same position.
