Just how hard is the Tour de France? How much does a three week cycling race change pro cyclists physiology? Thanks to Whoop we dived into the data of EF Education First to analyse the heart rate and recovery data of the team over the first 2 weeks, to see how the grand boucle affects their bodies.

Low resting HR is probably also a function of the fact that all of these guys have hct bumping right up against 50%. More rbcs = greater oxygen delivery = less demand for increased circulation.

I’m wondering if WADA wants access to this data since I read that in the Armstrong era riders were risking deadly clots by blood doping and pumping themselves full of EPO. I believe a rested tour team averaging 41 bpm is reasonable if my own resting rate as a fit enthusiast is just under 50. I think Pantani had some crazy numbers back in the day, but these numbers are what I would expect from non-doping athletes

In regards to the assumption that the riders are getting fitter after the rest day because their RHR is lower than it was when they started the tour, is actually not true. The lower resting HR after the rest day is due to Parasympathetic saturation, or sympathetic withdrawal of the autonomic nervous system.. In simple terms, their RHR drops, because their body is going in to ultra recovery mode due to the rest day. Whoop does not reflect this unfortunately. The fact that the riders are going into Parasympathetic Saturation, or Sympathetic withdrawal, is an indicator that they are Overeaching. Most teams, on the rest day, will try to put in a short ride with some short but strong efforts to keep the body in fight or flight mode so that the body does not go too deep in to recovery mode, which could make riders feel heavy and sluggish after the rest day.

LOL! (Maybe not even Merckx with his scientific FOR THE TIME hour record training). Yeah, I could only wish for those things now at almost 70, as well as my long lost climbing skills. :( :(

When I was a competitive swimmer in my youth, my resting HR was 36. It has been riding over the years and now, in my mid 50’s it’s now at 45bpm when I’m rested, but after a hard day of exertion, it’s 10bpm over that. It’s great to know what your body’s average readings are. I still think it’s funny if I go to the Dr’s and watch their faces when they take my pulse! They always double check it, but I think it goes slow when you get fit because when you are training it goes so high. You’ve only got so many beats in your heart! Probably!

I remember back in the dinosaur days of the sport, way way before any real sports/endurance physiology/medicine and/or general knowledge was around, one had to inform the paramedics treating riders after a crash in a crit/road race that their resting pulse is so low because of training/fitness, and NOT because of 'shock'. Otherwise, they would wrongly start treating the crashed riders for said shock. ;)

My reseting heart rate currently is 42 - 44,, and I am 53 years old cyclist, not a professional one When I am really fit and rested it may even go as low as 39. So, low resting heart rate itself doesn't say too much since it has to do with the BMI as well. The power and recovery are more important. I don't have the same power they have nor can I recover as quick as they are.

Hypothesis: When the heart is being stressed for a long period it becomes more effective. The heart muscle is now used to stretch more and create more volume and it exhales a higher % of its volume. Therefore it will pump at a higher volume per stroke. You can measure all of this with an MRI scanner. I have been in several due to a heart condition and this is the effect that has been happening to me over the past months. It's a theory. Would be fun to have a mobile MRI scanner and do this experiment in the TDF :-)

I appreciate your covering this. I have been a WHOOP user for about a year. It was indeed interesting to see what "the numbers" were for this TDF group. Knowing how well recovered I am helps me decide how hard or long I might want to work on a given day. I am learning to try to optimize each day. WHOOP data can also be displayed on STRAVA, a recent and welcome feature. If you capture your ride data to include heartrate and wear a WHOOP strap you will get duplicate information. I just delete the WHOOP data for that workout so that the feature in STRAVA that tells you your fatigue level and form are not skewed by the duplicate information from the WHOOP for the same ride. Since I also swim and lift weights the WHOOP will show this information in STRAVA too. A hard day lifting can cause poor recovery in the next day or even longer. Sore muscles also tell me this. It is gratifying to see a good recovery after a good bike ride or swim.

Really interesting! Well presented! Using a whoop myself, can sort of relate to the numbers, except, if I ride for more than couple hours, it'll certainly tell me I've over-reaching (actually, just an ascent of Alpe du Zwift causes that). It is amazing how those guys can recover. Actually surprising how much sleep they got on average. I wonder if the reduction in press and people in the bubble allowed more sleep time this year? Would be amazing if this insight could be repeated in different circumstances tour.

Great job sharing the physiology of the tour rider in this format. You did a fantastic job looking at heart rates, recovery, sleep, and other recovery variables. What I would’ve loved to have also seen included is caloric intake in between rides. And weight loss during a particular stage. As a triathlete to transfer half Iron Man, I lose as much as 122 pounds, 32 ounces of fluid on a long run where I can’t drink fluids at the same rate that I could on the bike. Anyway to share some of the caloric and fluid intake loss, replenish, and maintenance data? Chris from Long Beach 🏖 CA. 👍🏼💯🏃‍♂️🚴🏼‍♂️🏊🏼

I have been a keen cyclist for 50+ years and am fascinated by this data. The rise to average 71BPM from 41 by the end of, or well into a stage race is extraordinary. But I think this shows how cycling, even my moderate efforts, helps fitness and longevity (I can tell you it does nothing for the prostate, unfortunately!) I Used to mountain bike pretty well every night in my forties and 50s up the high peaks of the Peak District. Result: a resting heart rate in the high 40s and, on an advanced asthma test at the GPs, I was told that my respiratory performance was of someone 15 years younger-with me having Asthma! So pushing yourself a bit pays huge dividends and my advice to anyone is to keep it up as much as you can for a lifetime, not just when you are young.
