Doping Edit Meaning

1.

An antiquated form of cheating used in the 70s by competative swimmers and track runners.

An athelete has some of their blood removed prior to a match (far enough in advance that the body regenerates the lost blood) and then immediately before the competition redeposits the extracted blood in their body. This process gives the athelete highly oxidated blood which enhances their performance.

It is no longer done as nowadays advanced performance-enhancing drugs can replicate the effect.

The swimmer was disqualified after their post-meet testing revealed them to be blood doping.
