Juan Ayuso discussion thread

[Colonel]

In one interview Dr Inigo Milan said that during PDBF TT Pog did what he's capable of i.e. average of 6.3 w/kg for an hour, which is consistent with this number (414). Keep in mind that lab tests are close to a sea level.

How does San Milan know that? There is no data at all from the TT never mind PDBF segment. He also was not at the Tour to see 1st hand.

 

[Krzysztof_O]

Doesn't the TT position mean the top riders are losing a significant amount of watt on the TT bike? So the numbers from PDBF TT should be a bit lower than what he could do on a road bike?

True, but on PDBF he did like 6.6-6.7 w/kg, which was a significant part of the whole ITT. The average number is probably too high anyway due to quite a large part of rolling TT.

How does San Milan know that? There is no data at all from the TT never mind PDBF segment. He also was not at the Tour to see 1st hand.

Either Inigo Milan just stated what Pog is capable of and kinda justified his ridiculous PDBF performance or they actually had some data and only stated they didn't (in this case the doctor let the cat out of the bag).

On the startlist of Itzulia.

 

[ice&fire]

Imagine the UAE show if he had started in Catalunya

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Hope the injury hasn't hampered his development over the winter. Want to see him fight for the title in the Vuelta then go for pink next year

 

[CyclistAbi]

Sending such young cyclists to win GT's. That is basically abuse.Hopefully such trend won't continue.

Heal and take it easy for now.

Leave Vuelta to a 33-year old

Leave Vuelta to a 33-year old

In general in between 25 and 35 yes. For GT's. If we are talking about going after a win.

He isn't starting, nor will he ride Itzulia.

 

[pastronef]

Matxin said he'd race again by the end of April. I don't know why Procyclingstats has him down for Gp.Indurain and Itzulia

Provisional startlists that likely been made months ago. Right now, Ayuso isn't doing much more than training rides of just two hours, so basically December pre-training camp hours. Don't think he's anywhere close to competition level.

No return in sight for Juan Ayuso as tendinitis lingers: "Until we have the security of a training base, we will not define his calendar"

A tendinitis is wreaking havoc in Juan Ayuso's season. After

Darn this must be so frustrating for him.

Some more details:

El Emirates reconoce su inquietud ante las constantes recaídas de un Juan Ayuso que solo ha sido capaz de entrenar dos semanas seguidas desde que arrancó el año

El ciclismo español necesita a Juan Ayuso. Tras su exhibición con solo 19 años en la pasada Vuelta a España donde acabó tercero y se aupó como el más joven de la historia en subirse al podio, todo han sido malas noticias. 204

The problems began in late January. He was going to debut in the Volta to the Valencian Community when ten days before he began to notice discomfort in the back of his right leg. "We did an ultrasound and a CT scan. We saw there was discomfort in the Achilles Tendon and we decided to stop it for a while. We prefer not to rush to compete," says Josean Fernández Matxín. The tendinitis in the achilles tendon that Juan Ayuso drags should have remitted and allowed him to compete in the Volta a Catalunya and in the Itzulia, but there is no good news and yes there is a lot of concern in the team.

Ayuso has gone to several prestigious traumatologists but they have not yet found the key. 'We've talked to everyone and the best thing is to have four weeks of training in a row. He has been rolling gradually for two weeks and when he exhausts that period, once he has recovered in an absolute way, we will make the decision of the perfect calendar for him," says Fernández Matxín.

Chronic tendinitis is the most insidious of injuries. Could plague him on and off for his entire career.

Not a bad start at Romandie. But no conclusions can be made from this according to him.

Short summary of the link below.
He suffered an small acident in January (run over, but no details of the circumstances) that prevented him atteding the Vuelta presentation. The pain started a few days after. What everyone thought it was a tendinitis has ended being diagnosed as a sural nerve injury. He still has some pain, but during training rides sometimes it goes away after 2 or 3 hours and the harder the effort the less is the pain. He started normal training 5 weeks ago and his goal is to see if he can stand the efforts of actual competition.
