Last week we had Erin Carson of  ECFIT Performance Strength talk with us about strength training programs for endurance athletes seeking to perform at their very best in triathlons, marathons, and cycling events.    This week we are steering the conversation to bike strength and mobility programming. If you think we have the magic bullet for developing strength and power on the bike, think again. It takes work, from lots of angles and there is not a straight line to success, ever. How do strength programs, workouts, fueling, physical therapy, bike fit, components, riding apps, threshold assessments and so on factor into your power to weight ratio?    Here to help us unpack developing cycling strength and improving power on the bike is an athlete who I believe embodies “grit2greatness” and is an example of the resilience and tenacity it takes to achieve a goal. Yes we all have goals that we are working toward and the journey toward that goal seems long and winding. Part of the reason we close each episode with the call to “enjoy the endurance journey” is because the journey, not necessarily the finish line, is where we realize the most growth.    Introduce Laura Hammdorff: Laura Hammdorff is a competitive triathlete with an NCAA swimming and cross fit background. When we started working together last year we discussed her triathlon background and goals. Because we are focusing on developing bike power this week, this will be our theme to tell her story. Without giving too much away, it's my hope that by listening to Laura's journey you will find examples of how her grit and tenacity can give you a template for your journey   Discussion Questions to Laura (Rich and April take turns asking questions): Icebreaker - Two Truths and a Lie How would you describe your background in cycling compared to swimming, running and strength training? What was the steepest learning curve with cycling early on? What role did the Triple Bypass play in your development of power and resilience on the bike? How has working with a PT contributed to your development? How have injuries created challenges in your training and racing? Not just overuse, but also previous injuries and limitations? How has bike fit played a role in your performance? How has fueling played a role? How has thinking about the nuances of executing a workout (eg build into power, backloading stress, etc) played into your development? How's your relationship with the FTP? What have you learned about software platforms and their ability to engage and support doing the right training right? .  Ask A Coach: What muscle groups to develop for the bike? Setup (Rich): Here are the different phases of a bike pedal stroke and the muscles used during each phase: Downstroke (1 to 5 o'clock): This phase involves the quadriceps and the gluteus maximus. The primary action is knee extension and hip extension. Pullback (5 to 7 o'clock): The hamstrings and the gluteus maximus are engaged. This phase involves knee flexion and hip extension. Upstroke (7 to 11 o'clock): The hip flexors and the anterior tibialis are primarily used. The action here is hip flexion and knee flexion. Over-the-top (11 to 1 o'clock): The quadriceps and the anterior tibialis help to lift the pedal. This phase involves knee extension and hip flexion.   Get Gritty Tip:   Stop Sleepwalking Through Life    Do you ever feel like you're just going through the motions, like life is passing you by in a blur of routine and mental chatter? You're not alone. Scientists in the UK discovered that our brains have a kind of "autopilot" mode—a trance-like state where we zone out, consumed by trivial thoughts. It's like we're sleepwalking through life, and the result? Days, weeks, even years that feel hollow and forgettable.     Why does this happen? As we age, we fall into patterns. Experiences that once thrilled us now become automatic routines. Think about it: When was the last time you truly experienced something *new*? Remember how slowly time seemed to move as a kid? That wasn't just your imagination. Back then, everything was fresh. Every hour was an adventure, and your brain had to focus on learning, adapting, and figuring out how to respond.     Psychologist William James explained this beautifully in *The Principles of Psychology* over a century ago. He wrote about how, in youth, life feels vivid and stretched out, like an intricate journey. But as adults, our lives tend to shrink into the predictable.     Here's the good news: you *can* break out of this autopilot mode. The key? Newness. Novel experiences force us into the present moment. They snap us out of our mental trance because we can't predict what's coming next or how to respond.     And you don't need to meditate on a mountaintop to find this mindfulness. Learning something new—a skill, a hobby, even a sport—engages both your mind and body, pulling you fully into the moment. The journey toward mastery isn't just about achievement. It's about the fulfillment that comes from being completely engaged in the *process.*     Think of your life as a scrapbook. When you look back on it, what will you see? Is it full of rich, meaningful experiences that make time slow down? Or is it a blur of sameness? If the latter, it's time to wake up. Start saying yes to novelty. Break free from your routine. Add new skills, adventures, and memories to your life's scrapbook.     Because when you take inventory on your life, you'll want to see a collection of stories that prove you *lived.*     TriDot Workouts of the Week:    Here are 3 incredibly powerful workouts for building bike power: Power Intervals, Big Gear Work and 30-30s   Power Intervals Warmup 10 min @ Z2 with 2 x 30 sec (30 sec) Spinups and 3 x 1 min (1 min) @ Z4     Main Set 2 x 7 min @ Z4 ~70 rpm (3 min) 1 x 3 min @ Z2 1 x 10 min @ Z4 > 90 rpm Balance of time @ Z2 Big Gear Work   Warmup 10 min @ Z2 with 2 x 30 sec (30 sec) Spinups and 3 x 1 min (1 min) @ Z4     Main Set Dismount 30 sec Squats (shoot for 1/second) 30 sec Isometric squat Mount quickly w/o recovery 1 x 3 min @ Z5 in biggest gearing at 55-65 cadence 1 min @ Z2 before dismount Dismount 45 sec Squats (shoot for 1/second) 60 sec Isometric squat Mount quickly w/o recovery 2 x 1 min @ Z5 (60 sec) in biggest gearing at 55-65 cadence 1 min @ Z2 before dismount Dismount 60 sec Squats 30 sec Isometric squat Mount 5 min @ Z2 Balance of time @ Z2 30-30s   Warmup 10 min @ Z2 with 2 x 30 sec (30 sec) Spinups and 3 x 1 min (1 min) @ Z4     Main Set 4 sets of 4 x 30 sec @ Z5+ (30 sec @ Z3) with 2 min @ Z2 rest between sets Balance of time @ Z2   That's this week's TriDot workout of the week! Give it a go and tell us about your experience!   Today's Fun Segment: Transition Troubles (Winter Triathlete Edition) Concept: Players navigate a series of humorous and absurd challenges they might encounter during a triathlon transition. You describe a scenario, and they have to choose how they'd handle it. The Shoe Switcheroo: You reach T2 and realize your running shoes are missing, but there's a pair of Yeti slippers sitting in your spot. Do you: a) Wear the slippers and hope for the best. b) Run in your bike shoes. c) “Borrow” a random pair of shoes from someone else's transition area. The Snack Attack: Your nutrition bag was replaced with a box of donuts. Do you: a) Eat the donuts and enjoy the sugar rush. b) Offer them to other athletes as a goodwill gesture / barter. c) Ignore the donuts and power through without your planned nutrition. Helmet Havoc: You find your helmet filled with shaving cream. Do you: a) Scoop it out with your hand and put it on anyway. b) Run back to the start to see if someone will lend you a helmet. c) Smear the shaving cream on your face like war paint and declare yourself ready for victory! Ski Struggles: You're ready to start the ski leg, but you see that someone has put peanut butter on the underside of your skis. Do you: a) Attempt to ski anyway and hope the pb melts off. b) Lick the peanut off (protein boost, right?) c) Use it as ski wax, and convince others that it's a secret performance hack.   Train With Coach Rich: Coach Rich Soares Rich.soares@tridot.com Rich Soares Coaching TriDot Signup - https://app.tridot.com/onboard/sign-up/richsoares RunDot Signup - https://app.rundot.com/onboard/sign-up/richsoares   Train with Coach April: Coach April Spilde April.spilde@tridot.com Grit2Greatness Endurance Podcast Podcast Series - Apple Podcasts TriDot Signup - https://app.tridot.com/onboard/sign-up/aprilspilde   Shoutouts to: @genucan @grit2greatnesscoaching @ironmantri @303triathlon @tridottraining @tridottrainingsystem #grit #grit2greatness #usatriathlon #wintertriathlon #breckenbiener  #ironmantri #cycling #triathlon #swimbikerun #Iamtridot #tridotambassador #tridotcoach  

Nevada on Thursday became the first U.S. state to impose a surcharge on workers who have not gotten a COVID-19 vaccine, though the penalty doesn't take effect until the middle of next year. All but two members of the state's Public Employees' Benefit Program Board (PEBP) voted during a meeting to approve a surcharge of $55 a month on unvaccinated workers. The approved proposal also stipulates a surcharge of $175 a month for workers' spouses, partners, and dependents 18 and older. That could be adjusted down the road. The surcharges will go into effect on July 1, 2022. They'll help offset the costs of COVID-19 testing, Laura Rich, executive officer of the board, said. Testing costs through September were estimated at $3.3 million. The board did not analyze the cost of COVID-19 hospitalizations for the proposal because that would have made the surcharge for spouses and dependents “significantly higher,” Rich said. State rules bar making the surcharge on workers any higher.http://globalreportage.org/2021/12/05/nevada-becomes-first-state-to-impose-surcharge-on-unvaccinated-workers/ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/global-reportage/support

Laura Rich, a three-time entrepreneur, found herself in a space of uncertainty and sadness and was unsure of what the next step was going to be after she sold her most recent business. In her own words: she sold her baby. While celebrating the sale of the business she birthed, her friend confronted her and asked her why she wasn't happy and what was missing. It was spending time in that thought that she realized there are other entrepreneurs in exit that feel the very same way that she did -- lost and confused after the exit. This was the birth of her most recent venture, Exit Club, which focuses on the social and emotional community and coaching of exiter's and how they too can find their way to their next big venture.

The questions to ask yourself before you sell your business. How planning can ease post-exiting stress. The due diligence process and the surprises that come up. Why you need to avoid “rebound” businesses. Laura's main points from today's conversation. Takeaway: Exiting a business is a complicated and wild emotional ride.
