We're back after a week's break because Sam forgot when his birthday was. We have a mega episode today covering some serious and not so serious topics, including nutrition and fuelling on the bike, crashing, aerodynamics and why eating just 200g an hour of Jelly Tots on a bike might be the future... (it isn't).
Enjoy!
We're back this week with an episode full of mainly unplanned casual chat. We look at Sam's idea to lease bikes- which Seb hates, talk about all the latest racing and play a game with a simple premise but execute it woefully.
Next week we'll be back with Coach Alex for some chat that might actually make you faster.
Enjoy x
We're back with Coach Alex for round two of stupid questions with intelligent answers.
We cover: Panic training, Whoop- fad or rad? Training with family/work commitments and much more wild tangents.
Please share the love and tell people to listen if you enjoy it!
Next time- we're gonna discuss how aerodynamic a cow is.
Peace.
In a stark contrast to the high level technical chat of last week, we delve deep into stupidness with multiple games, varied race chat and ideas and generally just have a relaxed laugh.
We talk UAE tour, Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and much more.
Next week we're back with Coach Alex and can't wait!
We chat with Alex Welburn- professional coach with Trainsharp. Alex is well known for his MTB, Cyclocross and Road Racing results and performances- and coaching results an clients speak for themselves too. Alex has BSc in Sport and Exercise Science and MSc applied physiology so he knows his stuff.
We cover a range of topics including FTP and why isn't everything, mistakes people make when starting out training, how to prepare for a season that doesn't exist yet and much more.
Massive thanks to Alex for his time and expertise- if you like what you hear and would like to check out Trainsharp further then go to www.trainsharpcyclecoaching.co.uk

Tell your friends!**
Season 3 continued after an expected break.
No plans, no games, just pure chit chat and off the cuffness.

Red is a perfect model for modern cycling on both attitude and marketing.
