Hey Guys. How are you doing? This is my first time on this forum and first time posting. I have a couple of questions for you guys and hopefully I can get a honest answer from it.
So let me tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Michael Funston and I am 21 years old. I have been a casual bike rider all my life. I always wanted to ride in races and become a professional cyclist. I couldn't do that when I was younger because I was sick as a child and had to have a kidney transplant. I am healthy for now and want begin competing and hopefully one day become a professional cyclist. My questions for you guys is can I still become a Professional even if I'm starting at 21? If I can, how often should I train? Is upper body strength important? Should I weight lift also?
Thanks in advance for taking the time out and reading my questions. Thank you and have a nice day.
