1/n @RitterTV2 and everybody else: Keep an eye on @jakob_fuglsang in today's #TDF2022 . He spent the rest day actually resting for the first time in his career and allegedly hope to join the breakaway today. 2/n Why is this interesting? Time for two classics:
1) Previous exercise increases the ability to store carbohydrates in the muscles (nature.com/articles/21030…)
2) stored carbohydrate is essential for cycling endurance (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.…)

Will he miss that glycogen today?
