Dear Coach,
In the outside chance that you read this forum, how about giving us the scoop on Lance’s fitness this year, compared to years past?
How’s his power output at LT? He might have eaten one too many burritos at Chueys this winter, how’s his body fat? I remember you saying you don’t like to see Lance’s body fat increase much during the off season.
It would be cool to see his stats at this time of year for the past several years, just from a scientific standpoint. Then we can watch him in the Tour and see if science is a good predictor, or if there are other things beneath the surface that can influence performance. Things that cannot be measured.
If his stats are not as good as years past and he wins anyway, that would be cool. If his tests are showing he hasn’t lost anything physically and then he loses the Tour, that would also be interesting.
I’m just asking from an analytical perspective. Please send the data as soon as you can.
Thanks for your time.
