Three words perfectly define the lifestyle of Lance Armstrong; championships, cancer, and cheating. Leading man Ben Foster tried to recreate Armstrong's victory and betrayal. He wanted to make full justice to the role that he compelled himself to take the toughest decision of his life. As a result, he discouraged other actors from following in his tire tracks. This act was completely similar to Armstrong's act.
He hid such thing from his cast and crew before and during filming. Foster pretended that he was pretending to take them as in Armstrong simply pretended not to take drugs. This is what he did to bring out the real character.

All these measures were taken to satisfy the director David Ayer. He did work out for 60 hours. He did the awful thing in his life, i.e., to watch videos of cartel beheadings and torture. He made his ambiance full of torture, pain, and grief. He suffered from the ultra hectic schedule as well. But how he came back and how he healed up is still a mystery.
