Explaining that the intent of the IFSA drug testing policy is protective not merely punitive, Douglas Edmunds, Ph.D. said that the scientist in charge of running the mass spectrometer, the machine that identifies and measures what was in the urine sample, will be available for questions from IFSA athletes.
Edmunds said that he has sent information on these resources for handling athletes's queries to the heads of the various national groups making up IFSA, so Canadian strongman competitors, for example, can contact IFSA-Canada president Hugo Girard, and American competitors, for example, can contact IFSA-USA president Jim Davis.
