Anthony Bosch, founder of former South Florida anti-aging clinic Biogenesis, has admitted to injecting performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) into the New York Yankees third baseman, Alex Rodriguez.

Bosch told CBS's "60 Minutes" he and Rodriguez scheduled specific times in which PEDs would be injected.

He also disclosed that he went as far as to meet Rodriguez in the bathroom stall of a Miami nightclub to inject the drugs.

The doping guru explained in detail minute-to- minute regimen of performance-enhancing substances he delivered to the disgraced baseball star.

Included were concoctions called gummies, liquid soap, pink cream, blue cream, and even PM cream-each with varying doses of testosterone delivered in different ways throughout the day.

Bosch was paid USD12, 000 a month for the PEDs he supplied to Rodriguez.

US Anti-Doping Agency CEO Travis Tygart said Bosch's regimen included dozens of blood tests to see how the drugs were metabolising and which doses to use when.

News.com.au quoted Tygart, as saying that a potent cocktail of sophisticated PEDs stacked together to deliver power, aid recovery, avoid detection and create a home run champion.

Bosch faces potential charges stemming from the investigation into his Biogenesis clinic in south Florida.
