Ergogenic Aids
With better dope testing methods and hence the possibilities of detection and life ban from the sport, athletes and coaches are looking for legal ways to improve performance and/or hasten recovery. The various ways by which performance can be improved are known as Ergogenic Aids.
Ergogenic Aids may:
directly influence the physiological capacity of a particular body system thereby improving performance
remove psychological constraints which impact performance
increase the speed of recovery from training and competition
