Lance Armstrong Through A Physiological Lens: Hard Training Boosts Mus
Seven-year study of Lance Armstrong shows hard training to raise maximum capacity and boost sub-maximal efficiency raised muscle power 8%. Add a weight/fat loss to help Tour de France climbing, and power gain rises to 18%. Researcher Edward Coyle of the University of Texas-Austin says possible reason for increase is change in percentage of type I muscle fibers, which also might account for Armstrong's apparent ease of pedaling despite very high cadence. No physiological changes from cancer, chemotherapy. Pac-man enzyme fights Alzheimer’s
