2010 US Open: Nadal, Djokovic, Fish very Skinny.. new trend? or off juice?

I notice these 3 in particular were extremely thin this summer and at the US Open. Also, they all had good summers all in all, Fish making finals of a Cinncy while we all know what Nadal and Djoker did.

2 Questions:

1. Has the weight loss helped them move better and thus play better.

2. If Nadal is on any form of juice, how does it explain that he lost weight for the US Open, was noticeably thinner, yet he gained 10-15 mph on his First serve???

Very confusing..

Please post pix of these 3 as My computer will not let me for some reason...

Interesting. If there is juicing going on it's everyone. Why would only one person do it if everyone knows that it's easy to get away with? They did implement that new rule and since then everyone has been playing exceptionally crappily!!!

Bodybuilders use steroids to bulk up, but is there any evidence tennis players do so? Bulk does not equal steroid use, and vice versa.

I'm not saying he is for sure, I'm just stating what many of said. Maybe you didn't understand me you idiot...

People on these boards are so nasty... and generally ignorant in the way they speak...

For your information, half of ATP is on some sort of doping.. I would bet my life and every dollar I have. Maybe you're the troll who can't admit it..

And this thread is intelligent? So, it's intelligent, out of jealousy and/or complete stupidity, to accuse someone of using illegal drugs and of cheating?

This is THE most comical steroid post I've seen to date. So, now Nadal's dominance can be explained because he is OFF steroids. :) Now, his dominance is due to the fact he dropped the juice.

^ He was asking a question about steroids, he never stated it as a fact and yes I agree with Milan this forum is full of morons who are quick to put anyone down and get into useless arguments.

The stupidity of this thread is apparently contagious.

What's "stupid" about discussing steroids? How close-minded are you?

I'm NOT NOT NOT saying Nadal is on anything, there is obviously no proof. But given all we know about how the ATP protects players the way Baseball protects players, it's not IMPOSSIBLE...

My point is.. HOW in the WORLD did Nadal gain 10 mph on his serve when he CLEARLY lost weight.. he's thinner. Same goes for FISH and Djokovic..

What's so "stupid" about these questions?

A second note was about steroids...how people's opinions on that. It's not going to go away..it's a part of sports,, ALL SPORTS.. so the questions can be asked...

You sound like you had a bad reaction to it and went bald..

The funny thing is, if you read my Original Thread Post correctly, I'm saying, since Nadal lost weight and is hitting harder serves, and baseline shots, perhaps he's really NOT on juice..

Some idiot then said I'm accusing him of being on steroids.. I've never been on boards as dumb as this one..


On a SEPARATE NOTE.. I would bet that there is some form of doping going on with a lot of players... considering the touch schedule they're under...that's ALL...

Yeah but that's a long way off from saying that steroids = muscle = strength = pace of serve, which is just wrong.
