Yes. It's very interesting many of same bodybuilding drugs used for extreme endurance in pro cycling. Of course, they're used differently in different dosages. Building extreme muscle mass entirely different goal than doing a three-week 3000km stage race. It's why bodybuilders don't often give best cycle advice to endurance athletes.
