Endurance athletes often neglect to include strength training in their conditioning program, fearing they will become muscle-bound and hurt their performance.
Results from the study indicated that the subjects that included a greater percentage of strength/power training in their workouts made the greatest improvements in performance including their 5km running time.
The primary reason that strength/power training improved the endurance performance is due to the greater adaptation of the athlete’s nervous system as a result of the strength/power training performed by these subjects.

 Biathlon Canada - Changes to the 2004 WADA Prohibited List - April 28, 2004
WADA has issued a revised version of the 2004 Prohibited List based on a recommendation from the Chair of the WADA Health, Medical and Research Committee and the approval of the WADA Executive Committee.
While this change does not affect the substances or methods currently on the Prohibited List, it is a preventative measure to remove any doubt about the status of a new substance “similar” to an existing substance on the Prohibited List (such as a new “designer steroid”).
The CCES reminds the Canadian sport community, and athletes in particular, to always refer to WADA’s website (www.wada-ama.org) for the most up-to-date version of the Prohibited List.

 MFW Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) list
Present data indicate that strength athletes should consume approximately 12-15% of their daily total energy intake as protein, or about 1.5-2.0 g protein/kg.d-1 (approximately 188-250% of the U.S. recommended dietary allowance).
Although routinely consumed by many strength athletes, higher protein intakes have not been shown to be consistently effective and may even be associated with some health risks.
Carbohydrate loading is potentially valuable to both the bodybuilder and endurance athlete, by increasing muscle size and fullness and by increasing intramuscular energy stores to be used in a subsequent athletic event.
