At that time, the Americans were using growth hormone (undetectable and too expensive for the other athletes) while the other athletes were using steroids. Now growth hormone is affordable by all the sprinters and the playing field has been leveled. As a result, the US dominance in the sprints has diminished. Yes, I am a runner (with a lot of connections to the people in that race) with some inside knowledge....

Carl Lewis had contracts for Grand Prix track and field events in Europe these happened during the offseason which is the heaviest workout season in a sprinter's year. Lewis would refuse to attend and literally had it in his contract that there must be absolutely zero drug testing. He grew an inch and a half after 19 years of age. If it wasn't for drugs he'd be as good a sprinter as he was at singing the national anthem

Dianabol (dbol) is one of the steroids bodybuilders used most in Arnold’s era (you can easily find videos of him talking about this, as they weren’t illegal back then). What dbol does is add massive strength and mass gains, a lot of water weight/retention, and is a “wet” compound as with the water retention your blood pressure, estrogen, etc goes up. Tbol is like an adjusted dbol, snd is a “dry” compound. It has strength gains but not as crazy as dbol, but without any water retention, blood pressure issues, and estrogenic side effects, snd greatly increases endurance. Also bevause it was new, it was difficult to detect as you had to test for pulsating signs of it rather than a consistent showing. Jon jones was caught years ago through this method as well.

Only two of the eight finalists in that 100m final were clean. They were Robson da Silva of Brasil, and Calvin Smith of the U.S. BTW, the women's 100m final was just as problematic. FloJo must have been quietly asked by the IOC to stop competing in the women's sprint race in exchange for keeping her times and titles. Because her very last competitive 100m sprint race was on October 6th, 1988 in Tokyo, Japan. Shortly after that in 1989, she announced she was "retiring" from sprinting to pursue the 5K, the 10K, and the marathon. Distances over which she could never be competitive. One has to wonder why she walked away from all that money to pursue the 5K, the 10K, and the marathon. It makes no sense.

To provide you younger people some perspective: This was the most exciting, anticipated sprint race in the pre-Usian Bolt era. EVERYONE were buzzing in the lead up to this race. I am sure up to that time more money had been bet on it than any other track and field event. There was no Dream Team. No Michael Phelps. The late great Flo Jo herself was the opening act to this Main Event!

@paulinemclean375 - It's pretty sh*tty to accuse an athlete of steroid use who never officially tested positive for using the drug and can not defend her reputation because she died +25 years ago. Also, Flo Jo had a brain abnormality that she was born with that caused her seizures.

But dying at 38 of epilepsy in this day and age is very rare. Most live well into old age. The fact that steroids are well known to cause strokes, heart attacks and a myriad of other problems would explain her passing so young.

@@randallmadison9910 Lewis was caught. His ban was overturned before the games. Johnson's tests were conducted in an unsecured area, there were multiple people in the testing room without accreditation, including a friend of Lewis who spent some time sitting beside Johnson while he was drinking to stimulate a urine sample. The substance in Johnson's urine was in a form that means the drug would have to have been taken so recently as to have provided no benefit, and the committee then decided to use a method not approved by the IOC which was not applied to any other athlete at the Olympics to prove his guilt. Johnson was doping for sure, but he wasn't given the same treatment that every other athlete was afforded.
