    Also I am not sure if people understand that athletes are generally immunosuppressed when they are trained to peak competition form.

    Especially for endurance sports like cycling, the body is simply not supposed to be pushed that hard. Competing and training at peak form actively damages your body. They sacrifice everything for pure performance.
