You are talking about marginal gains, right?

Now for some fun, i don't think Froome is on drugs, just that he is an extremely talented individual with the right team at hand. And as he has never failed a test thee is no proof. Therefor innocent until proven guilty
Loads of dopers never failed a test. It means jackshit. |

Look at that link, if you still believe that Froome is clean then you are stupid beyond saving. Froomes time is 23:14 btw.

Can anybody explain me how are riders tested during the TDF? Is there any certainty that it would be revealed if Froome is on doping? I do not believe he is clean......You can say whatever |

I wondered why this thread started up again. But it is to be expected when ever he wins a race. 
Looking at the guy I wouldn't be surprised if he trains something ridiculous like 8/9/10+ hours per day, is he of this world? |

Before this season Porte was also nowhere, and now he's second in this stage.

iirc M. Rasmussen never failed a test too. Riccó in his Vacansoleil time didn't fail as well

Froome 22:30
Armstrong 2001, best time, 22:59
So Froome, if clean > Armstrong doped?

That's because Armstrong was talentless before using EPO, the doping make him great rider. Meanwhile Froome was already great rider, and after applying marginal gains, is out of this world.
Simple logic

I know zip about this whole story. I've been told that Sky has a completely different approach to training, scientific people say. Being a cyclist myself I know about differing training cultures and in being a Sports Science student I also know stuff about sports physiology, psychology etc.
Sports physiology is a very interesting field, but it's hard to define optimum training methods that you can apply on a specific rider designed for a specific race, because our "engines" just work differently.
Who says Sky can't have discovered some kind of new revolutionizing training scheme for their riders? I'm not taking any sides, just interested in this aspect.
If someone has some online litterature regarding Team Sky's training philosophy I would be very interested in looking at it.
Out.
