  • Wiki says Indurian's significant weight loss (85 to 78) came after discussions with Italian sports scientist/doc Francesco Conconi. In a completely unrelated point, Conconi also pioneered the use of EPO in cycling around the same time.

    With all that said, he still had an FTP of 450w (!!) - 4.88w/kg - at age 46.

  • I think it’s a matter of fact that Indurain was a beneficiary of EPO usage. Thomas Davy said under oath at the Festina trial that he’d been part of a team wide EPO programme during his time at Banesto.
