Today we dive into the essentials of structuring your training week for peak performance. With a focus on balancing Zone 2 endurance rides and intensity, we discuss how to optimize limited training hours and avoid burnout—perfect for cyclists juggling busy schedules. We also tackle essential topics like fueling strategies with “train low, race high,” effective recovery, and knowing when to adjust your training for better long-term gains.
Later, we chat about fine-tuning equipment, from the benefits of deep-section carbon wheels to the surprising impact of small tire pressure adjustments. We round off with a fun discussion on cycling etiquette and whether it’s ever okay to offer style advice to newcomers. Tune in for practical tips on maximizing performance, keeping training sustainable, and enhancing every ride with the right setup and attitude.
