Andy Schleck Discussion thread.

[airstream]

in short, we reached a consensus- Andy

LaFlorecita, whats wrong? his season starts on sunday (or on sunday next week i don't know so far)

 

[Panda Claws]

Wait, I thought that "The Little Boss" was Andy Schleck?

Just making fun of the guy.

 

[El Pistolero]

When I see Andy I think of this to be honest:

They look similar to me.

 

[c&cfan]

Oh airstream you're hilarious.


Also, C&C Alberto is muscular. What do you think that he's as anorexic as Andy?

there's a huge difference between being muscular and being andy-like. anorexic does not define andy-like. contador is an healthy man. that's it.

 

[c&cfan]

bugs bunny? seriously?

 

[airstream]

i dont know such words. but the fact you started discussing one's ALLEGEDLY physical defects in his appreciation thread doesn't do you credit.

so this action is going to define my caracter? not really.

but the fact that you see him as something similar to a champion and/or boss-like defines you pretty well.

And he has muscles. His legs are yummy, and so is his ***. :x

well.. that may be true. but he isn't a muscular man. he is a very healthy man and looks like it. andy doesn't. that's my point.

I think we might have the same point.

ok. can we exchange some fluids now? i have work to do.

I don't think Andy looks unhealthy. Just very low body fat coupled with not a lot of muscle mass. I'm sure he has more muscle than an average bloke his weight, just that the low body fat makes him look more "anorexic" (not the right term to use here I believe).

what does that mean?

andy is lacking 7-8 kg to look minimally normal.

 

[airstream]

they look absolutely the same adjusted for the height. probably contador is a little little bit broader in the shoulders.

Let me tell you something. The fact that he has more muscle mass than the average person, makes it even more unhealthy that he weighs around 6 kilos less than what's perfectly healthy for his length.

Andy = long everywhere and emaciated. That's it.

Alberto = Long legs, relatively small frame, narrow hips, broad shoulders. More muscle mass than Andy. Also more fat. Healthier weight.

1=2?no.....

 

[Forunculo]

the recent 2010 Tour winner has a record of 2 races finished vs 4 DNF. Not bad.

All according to plan

simply lol. and how did you measure muscle mass? with scales, sitting at the computer?

 

[LaFlorecita]

If you're still not convinced:

Alberto: 176cm, average 62 kilos
Andy: 186cm, average 64 kilos.

Says it all that someone who can be considered tall weighs just 2 kilos more than someone who can be considered short.

What also worries me is that I read Andy saying "I want to lose weight and gain muscle mass".



Muscle tissue weighs more than fat.

So he gains muscle mass. Goes from 64 to say 66 kilos (if not more). Wants to lose weight, he wants to weigh less than 64 kilos.

Conclusion: Even less fat. Eventually, he has no fat left to burn, and he's going to burn muscle tissue. And once that's gone, it never returns.

I'm worried. In an attempt to win the Tour he might as well risk the chance he has.

One can see it with one's eye.

Just fyi I studied dietetics. (sp?)

 

[theyoungest]

Andy Schleck doesn't weigh 64 kilos, more like 70. Andy is 4 kgs heavier than Fränk.
