Question: Is it possible to be among the best in the world in power events, such as weightlifting and sprinting, without using steroids?5
Sri Chinmoy: My answer will be in the affirmative. It is quite possible to be among the best in the world without using steroids. There will come a time in the near future when weightlifters and athletes will be able to break world records and better the world standards without using any drugs.
