As a competitive cyclist, I disagree with the premise of the study, but I suspect it was given such a title to encourage readership. When you get to the pro level and all you need is 1% more power than the guy next to you, hormones like HGH absolutely make a difference. Does that make them acceptable? Absolutely not. But, to dismiss all performance enhancing drugs as ineffective is reaching. It's like a scientist saying "we found the cure for cancer" knowing full-well that each cancer is a completely different disease.
