 Probably. Also it's pretty hard to not be fairly lean due to the amount of training them, and all elite athletes do. A typical world class WL'r will lift twice a day 5-6 days a week, each session an hour to 2 hours in duration, plus they will do plyometrics, and sprint training usually. They typically are training 15-25 hours a week, every week. At that level of caloric expenditure, it's difficult to not be lean. I have a friend who trained at the Olympic Training Center (OTC) as part of the US WL team. While there his diet was typically between 5,000 and 7,000 calories a day while competing at a body of 77-80 kgs (170-176lbs).

Sounds like some very interesting stuff. The researchers were primarily interested in learning whether the young men's athletic performance improved — it did, and markedly so. At maximum effort, the men's performances improved by 9 to 16 percent. But at a slightly lower level of exertion, performance improved by 50 percent, Lundby said. Athletes taking EPO can go 50 percent longer at that somewhat lower level of effort, which can make a major difference in an endurance event like the Tour de France or a marathon, Lundby said
HANDLEBARSI believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs. —Thomas Jefferson, 1802

if you read the entire article in pertains to testosterone also...but actually I'd be interested to know if EPO would actually help with lifts. Yes I know that EPO is primarily used for endurance sports and the snatch is anaerobic...who knows.

 it is inferior to putting on size to body building. that's why bodybuilders train differently. but obviously you can get jacked as fuck doing what he does. a lot of bodybuilders want to be much bigger tho. and a lot of bodybuilders can't get in the shape he's in.
