The rider we were talking about was already doing that workload though (500/600km weeks).
In terms of the training load yeah some of those guys were doing the same as some of the domestic pros with regular 20hour weeks. You're right that if you can manage it you're always going to have a distinct advantage over most other amateurs who just don't have that time/will to train that much.
