So the idea would be that these skiers would inject their downstairs region with hyaluronic acid to make it bigger girth-wise.
Now, don't get any ideas, listeners.
Because it's not advisable.
It is not like it's a major off-label use for this product.
Yes, correct.
And so you would need to inject quite a bit of it in order to see some major results.
Now, the reason that they would want to do this is because you have your suit, your like unitardy spandex suit that you have to wear for your competitions.
You have that, it's very strictly regulated.
So because the total size of the suit allegedly, well, no, it does, has a significant effect on the amount of lift that you can generate, which could allow you to jump further.
So think of it this way.
more surface area on your suit you might be able to jump say five percent further when you're competing so the idea is that if you injected your downstairs region with enough filler to create more room on the suit when they measure it and say okay your suit can be this big because we put you into the body scanner we've decided that your measurements are as such so you can have a body suit that's this size that's how into the weeds they get for the competitions
So then, ha ha, those fillers absorb.
You go back down to your regular size and all of a sudden your suit is a little bigger in the crotch and they believe it could be 5% more for your end results.
Because it's so close, right?
Like some of, you know, the difference between silver and gold could be pretty teeny tiny when you get to the skill of Olympic athletes.
Yeah, it's like deflate gate, the whole thing with the footballs.
There's all these different little tiny things that when you add them all up could result in you having an improved performance.
So a lot of people are saying that this isn't true, but still the World Doping Agency has to investigate the claims because the second the claim gets made, they want to figure it out.
But a lot of people are saying, no, this isn't true.
