Question:
Apparently the coach of US Sprinter who has tested positive for Testosterone is blaming the runners massage therapist for the positive result. They claim the therapist used a cream with the banned substance in it to rub his legs. Justin Gatlin faces a lifetime ban from track and field for the positive test for the anabolic steroid.

I'm no expert, but surely the body can't absorb that amount of testosterone through the skin via a cream? Surely the amount neededto raise the testosterone level to such an amount it could be picked up on a drugs test needs to be huge.
I may be wrong, but it sounds like a lame excuse to me!
