Ronnie would have been training , and most likely hes been doing hrt doses, no way his body gets back to normal after 15 years of cycling, he would be just taking it a lot eaisier trying to repair the bad side after the nerve damage, he would be avoiding a lot of hardcore stuff, so the damaged discs in his back or neck can heal, theres no doubt only an injury to that area can cause all the atrophy, nerves are a bitch they take ages to heal, in a year or two he will be fully recovered, but he will also be 45, and if he retrurns to training in the same way the damage will return, he should just retire and enjoy life hes nothing to prove we all know he was better than Jay and only the injuries ended it for him. But never better than Yates
