Fogelson- read the site rules about drug references before going into this line of argument any further- it goes absolutely nowhere.
If James likes the Soviet training system, that’s fine- I like SOME of it but not all. Borzov IMO was not really a direct product of this system because his coach- Petrovsky did not follow the training system of the rest of the sprinters. There are many succesful programs and my preference is to look at these programs and try to see what I can glean from them, as I believe you do.
