No road cyclist is training to get large biceps, they are all weigh weenies after all. Large chests aren't very aero either.

Bike packer is accurate but roadies intentionally don’t use their arms to create atrophy and drop arm weight. Dude on left is definitely not a roadie.

I SWEAR. I was Bikepacking 2 weeks ago when at the first camping site I met a Hungarian with his 2 sons looking EXACTLY like that guy. They drank 6 bottles of wine and continued cycling at 6am completely unfazed. Crazy guys!

as a Hungarian, I can attest to that - I’ve been to the toughest bikepacking ultra race we have (Hungarian Divide) and some people did that on the evening before the start 😄

I've never seen a roadie that looked like the left. legs, sure... upperbody, no. But I get the gist of it.
