Check out the Velo News Post: Discovery premieres “The Science of Lance Armstrong”
THE SCIENCE OF LANCE ARMSTRONG takes an in-depth look at the record- holding champion’s superhuman physiology and training techniques. Did you know that raising only his thumb while riding at full speed adds 20 grams of drag, costing him precious time? Or that Lance’s lungs have more than double the oxygen capacity of the average man and his heart is one-third larger? He even saves a full minute and a half over a 200km stage of the Tour de France due to the aerodynamics of his Trek Madone bicycle. The special profiles Lance’s personal and professional evolution, from cancer survivor to six-time Tour de France winner, with a focus on his extraordinary athleticism, dedication to perfection and passion for technology. Featuring interviews with coaches, aerodynamicists, physiologists and Lance himself, as well as incorporating the latest computer-generated imagery, THE SCIENCE OF LANCE ARMSTRONG is an adrenaline-fueled look into his incredible success.
