He was tested during the whole suspension and was clean. In his defense, Mikhnevich said he tested positive for gonadotropin, a protein hormone essential to women during pregnancy and which is produced by the pituitary gland. He blamed the mistake on his doctor.<br>When the steroid THG was attracting so much media attention this year, three throwers from the US were identified as having used THG. Speaking at a conference sponsored by USA Track and Field, Nelson said that in the long run the scandal would have long-term benefits because elite athletes are often considered role models, and the drug issue  sends the right message to athletes out there who are considering cheating. In the short-term, however, Nelson says the media coverage the controversy received could give the mistaken impression  that verybody is on drugs again. <br>Nelson says that track and field is making a concerted effort to clean up the sport s image with a strict drug testing program.  If the media would look at the statistics they d see that drug use is not as prevalent a problem as they think it is. In this country we get tested, out of competition, probably 6 to 8 times a year  at least I do. I ve even been tested twice in one day by two different organizations! We make ourselves available to the drug testing agencies 24 hours a day, seven days a week, no matter what we re doing. The bottom line is that the athletes who are doing drugs are going to get caught. <br>The current world record holder in the shot put is Randy Barnes, who is serving a lifetime suspension for drug use, being tested positive in 1990 and then again in 1998. Nelson sees that record (75 0.25) as tainted, even though Barnes had passed the drug test when he broke the record.  You don t start taking drugs after youbreak the world record  let s be honest! <br><br>Poliquin Power<br><br>After last year s world championships, Nelson learned about the success of Charles Poliquin, a strength coach who is owner of the Poliquin Performance Center in Tempe, Arizona. NelsAlejo.  You need to be privy to enough information that you can deal with these health professionals on a one-on-one basis, because injury prevention and recovery is so important at this level.<br><br> Third, you must be prepared to work with different personalities. At the college level, you can pretty much make your athletes do what you want them to do. At the pro level you can t because what they re doing is going to have a direct result on their paycheck. You have to remember this is their profession, so you have to be flexible. You need to compromise. <br>Compromise, Alejo points out, must be made because it s the best course of action, and this is where experience counts.  Earlier in my career I may not have been quite so apt to questionsomeone s opinion or theory on conditioning, he says.  Now that I m older I ve got no problem telling someone what I know and where I stand compared to what they know. I believe that s a problem with new coaches. Until you have stability in the profession and considerable knowledge gained by experience, it s tough to tell someone, no, that s not right. <br><br>Alejo s influence extends beyond the A s playing field, another indication of his success a
