BUSA (brit uni sports assc)drug test powerlifters?

on a sidenote, what uni are you at mate? i am interested in uni powerlifting competitions.

well never heard of a case or a test

no mate never competed in PL but was involved in BUSA sports. they must have a webbie somewhere?

Well, for starters, I'm not even sure that BUSA have held any powerlifting meets for a few years.

Secondly, if BUSA did hold a meet, the chances of you being drug tested are very slim.

If BUSA wanted their competition to be tested, they would have to pay for it. The chances of BUSA actually paying for this in powerlifting are very small. A bit more likely in athletics, but still very unlikely.

The only realistic possibility of you being tested is if UK Sport decides to send along a team of testers. What events UK Sport decides to send testing teams to is pretty random and they only test a handful (1-4) of competitors. The chances of them sending a team to your event is very slim. I was tested in this way a few years back however.

I've known quite a few people who have competed in BUSA champs in rowing and canoeing and they have never seen any drug testers let alone be tested themselves.

So there’s very little need to worry, ya big cheat.

hi mate, I dont know about power lifting but busa do test rugby players. I was tested but it was in the busa 1st team final (thank god I was clear!!). Hope ths helps!
