This is for the process known as "blood doping," which is almost always prohibited under athletic competition rules.
The athletes are trying to gain an advantage over other athletes by increasing the amount of oxygen their bodies can deliver to the muscles in a competition. The body ordinarily regulates the number of red blood cells that are maintained in the blood. But they can artificially increase this number before a competition (such as a race) by receiving a transfusion of their own red blood cells that were previously removed.
They have their blood drawn weeks before the race, and separate out the red blood cells (constituent known as PRBC for packed red blood cells). The day of the race, they get back a transfusion of these cells, and it takes a few days for the body to remove the excess cells. In the meantime, they can run farther or faster with this additional oxygen-carrying capability.
Along with drugs that stimulate red blood cell production, this process risks several metabolic conditions. High cell counts, known as polycythemia, can result in slower blood flow and excessive strain on the heart.

Pus. Which allows the flow of white blood cells to remove any foreign bodies.
There are more red blood cells than white in healthy human blood.
The cells and juices in our bodies fight against them. One of the CELLS that fight against our bodies are white blood cells. WRONG again! white blood cells fight
Red blood cells carry oxygen to our body's cells. This occurs with the help of hemoglobin.
White blood cells are a spiked ball that protect our bodies from bacteria or any other organism harmful to our bodies.

Athletes tend to have more red blood cells (which carry oxygen to the muscles) and white blood cells (which help fight infections) due to the physiological adaptations that occur with regular exercise. Regular physical activity stimulates the production of these cells to meet the increased demands of the body during exercise. Additionally, intense training can also cause a higher concentration of these cells in the blood.
