UCI Banned Substances?
Hi,
Could somebody please provide me with a link to the list of banned substances put together by the UCI? In particular I was wondering if creatine ethyl ester was on the list. (Not to be taken during race season of course, but thinking about it as a winter training supplement, as I eat very little red meat in my diet.) Links to the list and/or any knowledge on the use of this supplement would be appreciated. Thanks  |

Re: UCI Banned Substances?
The main link to the list is not functioning on my computer. I am using Mozilla, anybody else having this problem. The page just comes up as a blank white background, but the browser says it has finished loading. I am assuming it should open in Acrobat or something, as it has a .pdf file extension.
Thanks for the link though. |

The second link is a link to all the UCI rules. Anti-doping rules are part XIV of the UCI rules. The WADA rules are a subset of part XIV and are linked on that page, too. |

Re: UCI Banned Substances?
Ok, I got it to open in acrobat. Thanks for your help.
It turns out that CEE is not on prohibited. My next question is whether or not I should try using it as a supplement during my weight lifting sessions this winter. Here is my situation: Currently I eat about 3000 to 3700 calories a day (depending on activity/how hungry I get), including up to 200 grams of protein. I usually get about 43% to 55% of calories from good complex carbohydrates, around 30% from protein, and the rest from fat (fish oils, olive oils, EFAs used in cooking mainly). I do not consume very much red meat (usually 1-2 servings a week), instead choosing to get protein from dairy, nuts, fish, and some poultry. My off-season training consists of 30 minute to 2.5 hour stationary trainer workouts at or above 65% MHR, with intervals and recovery time mixed in. I do some resistance training about four times a week, with an emphasis on lower back, abs, chest, quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves (cycling specific muscle groups generally.) The problem I have is that I need to develop a quicker sprint by next spring, and bulk up a little bit, as the races I will be taking part in will be very flat, and require more power over the last 1-2 km than I have had to produce in the past. I am currently 19 years old, 5'10", 134 lbs, and will be racing cat 4/5. I want to know if training with CEE during the off-season, and then tapering off of it completely for race season would be beneficial, and if anybody has done this. Pros, cons, am I crazy for even wondering about it?  (I kind of feel guilty for asking/being curious about it.) Namely... does anybody have a good workout plan to achieve such goals without using a supplement such as CEE?Thanks for honest opinions! |
