This is a photo of a cyclist leg during the infamous tour to France there’s not an ounce of fat left in sight long hours on the saddle have led some Riders to develop painful vericose veins every stage requires them to ride an average of 95 M covering a whopping 2200 Mi over
23 or 24 days they burn through 6,000 calories for every stage and a staggering 120,000 calories throughout the Tour by the end of the race Riders often shed 5 to 15% of their body weight naturally they lose weight to power up those mountainous terrains more efficiently but they inevitably lose
Even more given the insane distances and altitudes they tackle it’s no wonder they call it a war of the Gods FYI the recent drug use percentage has drastically reduced to nearly 2%

most people underestimate a cyclist's love of pain and suffering that would cripple most others
