Famous fighter intro re PEDs/dangerous supplements/setting an example (Tyson/Leonard/Lopez, Calzaghe, etc.) (1 minute) “Performance enhancing drug use is cheating. As a fighter you risk your health all the time, but performance enhancing drugs or methods multiply the risks for you and your opponent. The negative health effects of these substances are too often overlooked. In the end, PEDs will ruin your career and forever label you a cheater. During this course you will learn about PEDs, PE methods and dangerous supplements. You will learn about the WBC/VADA Clean Sport Initiative, and what is expected of you as a top WBC rated boxer. As much as 6% of high school and middle school students have

admitted to anabolic steroid —this doesn’t include those who unknowingly took these substances. Your participation will set an example not only to your fans, but also to young athletes coming up through the ranks that success in sport can be achieved by competing clean. ” (Their thoughts and opinions) And one other famous former champion to discuss thoughts on clean sport. 5. (if we can find a fighter to discuss their story, prior use & hazards) If we can’t find a fighter, a famous athlete, then Don Hooten Sr can say a few words here or towards the end of the webinar (30 seconds) 6. Definition of PEDs and Methods: list categories (Smitty-English/Victor-Spanish voiceover)(3 minutes) “Please refer to the complete list of prohibited substances and methods on the WBC website (link) or VADA Website at www.VADA-testing.org.

Manipulation of blood or blood products (blood doping/transfusions) j. Gene doping” (E-learning to list all of these) 7. (Smitty and Victor) Drag and drop questions regarding what is or isn’t a PED/prohibited method (1 minute) Soda can, milk, Androgel, testosterone injection, blood transfusion bag, steak? (Feedback —“congratulations, you’ve identified prohibited substances or methods”) (E-learning to illustrate this) 8. Supplements — (Smitty/Victor) lack of regulation/how do you know which supplements are safe (post VADA supplement statement) (1 minute) “Many over -the-counter supplements contain prohibited substances and are dangerous. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not regulate dietary

substances including vitamins, energy drinks, creatine, protein powder/shakes and products sold in most health food stores and on the Internet. As a result, what you’re buying or what has been recommended by your trainer, conditioning expert or health food store may contain more than what’s listed on the labe l. Many of these ingredients can actually can result in a positive doping violation. Those containing stimulants can even result in death. Consuming any dietary supplements may be risky. Use caution when consuming them, don’t trust the label alone and ask questions. You or your trainer may contact them any time to ask if any supplement or medication you’ve purchased or were prescribed maybe prohibited or contain prohibited substances. The WBC/VADA CSI works with Drug Free Sport’s Resource Exchange Center ( REC). http://www.drugfreesport.com/rec/ Password VADA12.” (E-learning folks to illustrate this simply while voice-over going) 9. Drag and drop questions regarding supplements (1 minute) (Smitty/Victor Voiceover): “Let’s see what you’ve learned about supplements. Drag and move each item to either the gym bag or the trash can: Monster Energy, protein powder, bottle of one-a-day vitamins, certified supplement, Bulk- Up.” “CONGRATULATIONS!” (We’ll defer to Jeremy and his team as which items to use and include something that says “methyhenenamine” ). 10. What are anabolic steroids? Forms do they come in: dermal/oral/injected(Smitty/Victor) (2 minutes) “Anabolic Androgenic Steroids - variants of the male sex hormone testosterone. They increase protein within cells, especially skeletal muscles. Steroids can be taken (show pictures): orally (pill form); creams/patches/gels rubbed on the skin;injections YES! Testosterone is an anabolic prohibited steroid!!!” (E-learning folks to pick pictures, etc) 11. Side effects of PEDs and methods (Smitty/Victor voiceover) (2 minutes) “Any medication you take can have side effects. Performance enhancing drugs can have many serious and even lethal side effects. Anabolic steroids have been linked to liver, heart, kidney and even brain diseases including cancer. They can also cause orthopedic/bone/tendon injury Stimulants can cause heart attack, stroke or brain bleeding Blood doping (either by micro-dosing small amounts or transfusions) can cause stroke, heart attack or death Diuretics contribute to dehydration kidney disease or even kidney failure, electrolyte imbalance that can make you dizzy, weak, slow or even pass out.”

(We want this displayed verbatim on a slide) 12. DANGERS OF SUPPLEMENTS (Smitty/Victor) : “Supplements, besides many containing prohibited substances, may cause the same serious medical problems described above. In fact deaths have been linked to energy drinks and supplements. Many are manufactured in unsanitary conditions contaminated with heavy metals like lead, zinc, mercury, or aluminum. The same applies to performance enhancing drugs you buy on the Internet or get off of so-called friends at the gym. Just because something says it has been declared safe or without prohibited substances, doesn’t mean it’s true. Ask questions BEFORE buying or takin g any medication or supplement.” Show example pictures of prohibited substances —I’ll email a couple. (E-learning folks can display an illustration of this with the voiceover) 13. Question: “ If your doctor says this is ok to use, is it? (yes/no)(Smitty/Victor) (30 seconds) Most doctors do not know what is considered prohibited for an athlete. Even if your physician tells you a medication is okay, spend the time to investigate it first. You are responsible for everything you put in your body.” (E-learning folks to illustrate this) 14. Question: “if your trainer/sparring partner/ family says substances is oka y, is it? (yes/no) (Smitty/Victor) (15 seconds) “Congratulations! You chose the right answer” (E-learning to demonstrate this) 15. As a professional fighter what can you take and how do you know it’s safe?(Smitty/Victor) (30 seconds) “Ask questions or check with REC at http://www.drugfreesport.com/rec/ Select VADA then use the password VADA12. Do this before you take the medication/supplement.” (E-learning to have this written along with voiceover) 16. ALCOHOL (Smitty/Victor voiceover) “There are substances that can severely affect your health and performance that are not prohibited. Alcohol is a clear example. Alcohol can affect your balance, coordination, memory and predispose you to bleeding — especially during a fight or sparring. It can have long-term effects long after drinking.” (E-learning illustration re alcohol) 17. Commission overseeing your fight may also test you & have a different prohibited list (Smitty/Victor voiceover) “Not e: depending on where your fight is taking place,
