Craig Jones Shares The Most Ridiculous PEDs Use Excuses In Jiu-Jitsu

Craig Jones Shares The Most Ridiculous PEDs Use Excuses In Jiu-Jitsu

It’s no secret that, as it is at the moment, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is full of performance enhancing drugs (PEDs) use – and that a lot of top competitors are “on gear”.
Craig Jones had shed light on that fact a number of times before. This time, however, he chose to share some of the most ridiculous excuses athletes have used for testing positive for PEDs use.

Jones starts with a rather specific one:

There’s obviously drugs in our sport… So, you’re obviously getting excuses [when they need to get drug tested].

Like: “Man, I’ve been smoking weed, I don’t want to test positive for weed…”
And it’s, like, oh my gosh… You don’t wanna test positive for weed at an event ran by Eddie Bravo?

He continues:

But, more of the drug excuses we’ve heard in our sport… “I’ve used my friend’s water bottle.”
That’s real, they’ve told that to USADA, like: “Oh guys, I tested hot, I drank out of my friend’s water bottle.”

“I used my friend’s supplements and it was not USADA approved.”
“I kissed my girlfriend…”

There’s also the “doctor prescribed it” excuse:

“I am a 19-year-old jacked vegan, and my doctor prescribed it.”
Guys, if you are jacked, you don’t have low testosterone. It’s an ingredient in creating muscles.

It’s like Gordon being, like: “Guys, you have no idea what I’m going through. I can’t eat.”
And it’s, like, bro… You’re 20 lbs heavier than yesterday! Where did that f*cking come from?
