Here is the biggest point you are missing Devon when highlighting these claims of these athletes. And that point is the "EXAGGERATION" of the stats put out by these players and coaches. I believe a lot of these guys you posted are clean, probably more clean than juiced. But they all, every one of them, will exaggerate on their stats. Most weigh less than claimed, albeit maybe by a small margin. Lift less than claimed(or do it in such a fashion serious trainer would call them out on their numbers) among other things. Trent Richardson is one of the few guys that is a legitimate one in a million type specimen. But notice his numbers have been backed up by legitimate powerlifting feds as he was a state powerlifting champ as a teenager, and is probably 22 or 23 by now so he is not a highschooler anymore. Every guy I knew in highschool lied about their numbers in the gym, all of them. I could do 280 as a Senior at 18 years of age. But all the football players were doing 350-405, or so they said. I lifted with them one day and sure enough they could bench that much, but with a spotter deadlifting the weight while they benched it. So, while I agree that a lot of these guys are genetic phenoms, and most are clean, they all fib on stats when it suits them.
