This is madness.

The germans had been doping their young swimmers so much they were growing body hair and getting deep voices etc.

Very interesting stuff.

The training regimes are very militaristic, crazy stuff that went on. Giving the girls the contraceptive pill to control periods and avoid side effects.
 
There's a channel 5!?

Aye, go to your channel 4, then press the +channel button on your remote.

Give it a watch :P

I hadnt realised how many medals the east germans won back then. The use of drugs is just unreal, The coaches controlled the lives of the athletes, over ruling doctors opinions etc.
 
Obviously i was the only one watching this haha.

But just to add. .

One of the shotputters had been doped up with so much test, that she was turning into a bloke, lifting more weights than most of the blokes...

and 7rs later she had to get a sex change into a bloke because it screwed up her up so badly lol

What...the...hell...
 
Saw it and it was utterly shocking. The DDR govt just used these young people for propaganda purposes and discarded them if they didn't make the olympic medal grade :(

Yeah mate it was unbelievable.

If they asked too many questions regarding what they were taking, then they were dropped from the teams.

Regarding the shotputter, she was reacting to the massive amounts of testosterone she was given, and as she got larger, and more masculine, she was getting abuse in the street, being called a faggot etc.

To avoid the bullying she just stayed in the training gym most of the time because it was the one place she didnt get greif.

And eventually she had to accept the changes to herself, the hair growth etc. and ultimately life as a man was more suitable for her.

Unbelievable stuff
