I agree with their choice because they do not need bigger arms for their healthy lifestyle. For myself, my body choices are different. I don't want my arms and upper body to look like that so I do bodybuilding as an amateur because I am not competitive enough to do things like taking steroids and I don't want to look like Ronnie Coleman either. I would never be willing to shrink the muscles in my upper body to save weight so I could be lighter and pedal faster just as I would not want to put on body fat to excel in sumo wrestling or have more momentum to hit harder in football, cumulative cognitive as in IQ damaging concussions and all. Still, in the case of bike riders who develop their leg muscles and economize on weight by not building upper body muscles, I can't find fault because it does not damage anything.
