There is no magic move or secret that creates victory but lots of little items that, when added together, can make you victorious.

When I competed, it was for honor and country. It was a privilege to be a part of the U.S. team.

I have read many studies out of the Karolinska Institute in Sweden and they demonstrated that Vitamin E, Co-Q-10, and Fish Oil could protect the immune system of athletes and prevent disease.

We have made drugs an Olympic event. It receives most of the coverage at the Games and even the suspicion of guilt can ruin a reputation for life.

The East Germans first used biomechanics. This meant that rather than guessing about technique and form, they could apply changes to athletic performance based on science.

My Olympic voyage has continued because it is so rewarding.

Behind every good decathlete, there's a good doctor.
