Hi:
I am a amateur cyclist that had a lot of health problems in the past few years. It all started in 2003, after a long stretch of really hard training, I picked up a very bad virus. I spent almost all the summer on the couch, not to mention that I quit bike racing for a long period. I freaked out because I did not know what exactly was happening (I still not sure!!!) and I went to see a lot of different specialists. No one was able to help me. I read that George Hincapie had these kinds of problems at some point.
I let my body recovered during 2004, I trained a little bit during 2004 but not too much as I was still not feeling 100%. This year I wanted to do a comeback and start training hard again but as I increase the volume and the intensity of my training, I get really tired or I get sick. Instead of getting in a better shape, it is the opposite that is happening, it seems that I get in worst shape because I am tired.
A Naturopath suggested that I try the Intravenous vitamin and Mineral protocol (AKA Meyer's cocktail), he said that Lance Armstrong team members take that after long training ride. Has anyone have any advices for me?
Thank you,😕
