Leading UK experts are warning of the health risks facing athletes training for the Enhanced Games.

This week, it was announced the first ‘Enhanced Games’ will take place as a four-day event in Las Vegas next May.

The event endorses the use of performance enhancing drugs - with organisers aiming to unlock a new level of 'superhuman performance'.

Dr Martin Chandler and Professor Ian Boardley are leading experts in the field - and they've released new research examining the potential risks.

"There isn't the evidence base to put safety measures in place so we can monitor things - but most of the evidence that's been generated around the use of these substances is that therapeutic doses are not these sort of physiological doses that they're proposing to use."
