Dr Martin Chandler and Professor Ian Boardley: Experts voices concerns on the risks associated with the Enhanced Games

Leading UK experts are warning of the health risks facing athletes training for the Enhanced Games.  This week, it was announced the first ‘Enhanced Games’ will take place as a four-day event in Las Vegas next May.  The event endorses the use of performance enhancing drugs - with organisers aiming to unlock a new level of 'superhuman performance'. Dr Martin Chandler and Professor Ian Boardley are leading experts in the field - and they've released new research examining the potential risks. "There isn't the evidence base to put safety measures in place so we can monitor things - but most of the evidence that's been generated around the use of these substances is that therapeutic doses are not these sort of physiological doses that they're proposing to use."
