High-Performance Sport: Cheating
Manage episode 356605764 series 3264947
This episode explores cheating methods in Parasport. I'm joined by former GB Paralympian, and current PhD researcher at the University of Birmingham, Ali Jawad, to explore this area in more depth.
On the show, Ali explains why classification may be the biggest threat to the integrity of the Paralympics. The controversial and dangerous method of boosting is discussed, followed by an assessment of doping in Parasport. Finally, Ali explains why athletes need to have a greater say in the regulation of anti-doping.
This episode was recorded in April 2022 ahead of the high-performance sport series and while recording the Accessercise episode with Ali.
