Assertion from undisputed girls’s 130lb world champion Alycia Baumgardner:
On August 12, 2023, I used to be knowledgeable that an “A Pattern” supplied on July 12, 2023 resulted in an “Hostile Analytical Discovering” of mesterolone and methenolone acetate metabolites, two substances I’ve by no means heard of or utilized in any method. The pattern supplied instantly after my battle on July 15, 2023 examined clear and destructive for all banned substances, as did my pattern on June 16, 2023, which makes the July twelfth end result basically unattainable.
To be abundantly clear, I do know that I by no means have, by no means would, and by no means will take this or every other drug. Not solely would doing so be unethical, however it could even be utterly opposite to how I’ve skilled my total profession.
As knowledgeable athlete, I and I alone am liable for what I put in my physique, and my physique is a temple. I’m additionally a proud function mannequin for any younger girl or lady who seeks to observe in my footsteps. I take these tasks very significantly – which is why I do know that I didn’t and would by no means put these substances in my physique.
I’ve much more to say about my journey and why the very concept of me taking an unlawful, banned, and even harmful substance would by no means make sense. So I’ve no intention of sitting again in silence and letting this “play out.” I plan to maintain you all up to date each step of the best way as I work to make sure my fame as a clear athlete stays absolutely intact.
