Dont be tricked into thinking that only "form reversal" trainers are possibly on the "cutting edge". I know it is cheesey to say this but I know of a couple of fair haired boys who have got caught with their pants down so to speak and have escaped without much knowledge. You would be very surprised at who. The funny thing about the whole issue is that for so long only claiming trainers were supposed to be juicing, when in fact they are usually doing nothing different than many of the supertrainers.
