Even by the standards of WorldTour racing, Dennis van Winden's career has seen a lot of highs and lows. Starting out on the legendary Rabobank development team as a teenager, he landed a spot on the WorldTour team and was starting to distinguish himself as a promising new talent when a catastrophic health incident changed his trajectory. He returned to Rabobank (then LottoNL–Jumbo) through 2016, but eventually stepped away from road racing and began focusing on the U.S. gravel scene. Now, he coaches a long roster of American talents through Orange Seal Academy, including Cole Paton and World Cup rider Savilia Blunk. Payson sat down with Dennis in Girona this week to talk about his 13 years in the pro peloton and his transition into coaching. Dennis discusses the mistakes he made as an overly-disciplined young racer, the surgery he had in his early 20s that was meant to improve his cycling career but nearly ended it, and how his “Dutch directness” ultimately led to his current role at Orange Seal Academy. He also reflects candidly on what it was like to enter road racing on the tail-end of the doping era, and how he's coaching young cyclists to approach their training in exactly the opposite way that he did.Instagram: @theadventurestache

In this episode of The Cycling Podcast, Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe meet up at London's Soho Theatre to discuss the news that Sky's sponsorship of the cycling team will come to an end in December 2019. We reflect on Team Sky's nine years in the peloton, ask what the tenth season has in store and discuss what this means for Dave Brailsford and his star riders Chris Froome, Geraint Thomas, Michal Kwiatkowski and Egan Bernal. But more broadly we ask what this means for professional cycling and get the views of some rival team bosses, Richard Plugge at LottoNL-Jumbo, Marc Sergeant at Lotto-Soudal and Jose Azevedo at Katusha-Alpecin.

In today’s episode, we start by asking our expert guests that simple question: Do we need a coach? Next, we’ll talk about the relationship athletes have with their coaches — what makes a good relationship and what makes a bad one. After we’ve defined that relationship, we’ll ask our panel what to look for in a good coach. And, conversely, how to identify a bad coach. Finally, we’ll talk briefly about how much coaching is worth, and whether an athlete should stick with the same coach or change from time to time. Our panel today includes coach Neal Henderson, owner of Apex Coaching and current coach of time trial world champion Rohan Dennis, among other elite athletes. Neal has joined us before, on one of our most popular episodes, in fact, Episode 33: Is FTP Dead? Our other main guest today is the renowned endurance athlete Rebecca Rusch, formerly an adventure racer, now a decorated cyclist of mountain bike, gravel, and bike-packing events around the world. Rebecca currently works with CTS coach Dean Golich; for many years she went without a coach. She has a great depth of experience as an athlete and brings a wealth of knowledge to the conversation. In addition to our panel, we have several experts weigh in throughout this episode: Ciaran O’Grady, a coach and sports scientist with Team Dimension Data, talks with us about the pros and cons of self-coaching versus the accountability that comes from working with a coach. LottoNL-Jumbo’s Sepp Kuss, winner of this year’s Tour of Utah, reached the WorldTour by being self-coached. We talk about why he did that, and what it’s like now working with the team’s trainers. We check in with Dean Golich, head performance physiologist at CTS. Dean has worked with an incredible number of top athletes and shares some of his thoughts on how he approaches coaching them. The legendary Ned Overend continues to crush Cat. 1 riders into his 60s. Despite all of his success, Ned has never had a coach. He explains why. Finally we talk with Armando Mastracci, who has developed a highly sophisticated training AI system that can help athletes plan their workouts. Armando discusses what parts of coaching a good AI system can replace and what it can’t.

The best riders understand … mindset wins races. And controlling your thought patterns in races is one of the most powerful things you can do. Mindset in cycling is an important and frequently neglected side of our training and racing. It's avoided because it seems unclear, inconsistent, and, let's face it, can be too new-agey for the likes of us "tough guys." In reality, mindset is often all that separates the best from second best and can be the difference between reaching the podium or finishing a race. When Coach Connor managed Team Rio Grande, he offered to cover the costs for one of our riders for a few sessions with a top sports psychologist in Colorado. The rider refused and ultimately quit the team. But when Trevor told several high-level pros the story they all asked the same thing: "Can I get those appointments?!" Today, we'll delve into this concept of controlling your thoughts for performance. We'll touch on: 1. The concept of dominant thought and why it's so important, including whether we are funnels or buckets. 2. How athletes are either task- or ego-oriented, the pros and cons of each, and why it's important to know which one you are 3. Using trigger words to control your dominant thought 4. Why it may not actually be good to stay mentally focused for an entire race and how to pick your moments when you are on your mental game 5. And finally, how to control your thoughts when your body is screaming in pain and telling you to stop Our primary guest today is a professor of sports psychology and is a senior teaching professor at Colorado State University, Dr. Brian Butki. Dr. Butki has worked with athletes in almost every sport, both at the university level and on professional teams in the Colorado area. In addition to Dr. Butki we spoke with: Dean Golich, a head coach at Carmichael Training Systems. Over decades as a top coach, Dean has worked with athletes all the way from recreational amateur riders to Olympians and world champions. He is uniquely qualified to talk about the mindset of top athletes. You may be very surprised to hear what he has to say. Sepp Kuss, a WorldTour rider with LottoNL-Jumbo and winner of the 2018 Tour of Utah, talks with us briefly about his mindset and the danger of being too focused on the win. Finally, local top coach Colby Pearce gives us a variety of tips on controlling your mindset both in training and in racing situations. In our next episode, we'll talk with Colby and Chris about the hour record and their experience with it. But in the meantime, Colby is going for the master's world record from September 22-25. We're still waiting to hear if they are going to livestream it. If they do, we'll put a link up on the VeloNews page for this podcast along with our references. So let's get to the task at hand. Find your balance. Focus your mind. But don't get too focused … you need your breaks. Let's make you fast!

In this episode of The Cycling Podcast, Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe recap the eighth stage which finished at a small hill-top town in the middle of Spain called Almadén. And, as is so often the case with uphill finishes like this, Spaniard Alejandro Valverde triumphed – making it his second stage win of the race. Lionel and Daniel disagree over whether this was a typical Valverde finish or not. We also hear from LottoNL-Jumbo’s young American Sepp Kuss, who has had a good first week at his debut grand tour, and from Antoine Duchesne, team-mate of red jersey holder Rudy Molard. In the final part, Fran Reyes makes an appearance to explain what to expect at Sunday’s mountain-top finish at La Covatilla. The Cycling Podcast is supported by Rapha and Science In Sport.

In this episode of The Cycling Podcast, Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe recap the European Championships road race, won by Matteo Trentin. We also hear from George Bennett of LottoNL-Jumbo about his fourth place in the Tour of Poland and his ambitions for the forthcoming Vuelta a Espana. And, after a good week for young riders on the big stage, we look at the next generation. The Tour de l'Avenir starts on Friday and many of the World Tour teams will be keeping a close eye on the racing. We hear from Bahrain-Merida's manager Brent Copeland – who recently signed Welsh climber Stevie Williams after he finished fifth in the Baby Giro – about how the top teams look for the stars of tomorrow. The Cycling Podcast is supported by Rapha and Science In Sport.

In the penultimate episode of The Cycling Podcast from the Tour de France, Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and François Thomazeau reflect on the time trial which confirmed the overall results of the race. The time trial confirmed that Geraint Thomas, Tom Dumoulin and Chris Froome were the strongest riders in the race. We recap the stage and also hear from Dan Martin, winner of the most aggressive rider of the Tour award, and from Luke Roberts, sports director of Dumoulin’s Sunweb team, and Robert Gesink of the LottoNL-Jumbo team. The Cycling Podcast is supported by Rapha and Science In Sport.

In this episode of The Cycling Podcast, Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and François Thomazeau analyse the final mountain stage of the Tour de France that crossed the Col d’Aspin, Col du Tourmalet and Col d’Aubisque before a hair-raising descent into Laruns. It was an absorbing, action-packed stage with an impressive performance from several teams – notably LottoNL-Jumbo, who set up Primoz Roglic for the stage win, and Team Sky, who enabled Geraint Thomas to extend his overall lead by another six seconds after he sprinted to second place on the stage. We assess the way the tactics played out on the mountains, find out from Ian Boswell why Katusha were so active on the Tourmalet and weigh up how the time trial will go tomorrow.

Cycling can be a fickle sport. Coaches come and go; new, exciting, revolutionary ways of training take the sport by storm then grown stale; riders at the local training race who were once unbeatable age and fade from the front. Few things have permanence in this sport. But there’s been one thing that has stood the test of time, that seems to have been there since most of us attempted our first interval workout: Joe Friel’s “Cyclist’s Training Bible.” For many of us, reading that book was our first step towards more dedicated training. This spring Joe released his fifth, and hopefully not the last, edition of the book. Trevor and I had a chance to talk with Joe about the newest edition. We came to the interview with a list of questions that we felt only touched on the key parts of the book and by the hour mark we were barely a quarter of the way through our list. But what we did talk about was really compelling stuff. We touched on everything from periodization to energy systems, to Joe’s method of research…believe it or not, it has a lot to do with hundreds of 3”x5” note cards. What is the central theme of this podcast? Perhaps we’ll just call it picking the brain of one of the most experienced cycling coaches in the world. Our varied topics included: • How Joe’s philosophy to coaching has changed over the five editions of the book, and why with this most recent edition he decided to completely rewrite the book. • How new technology has changed coaching and why Joe recommends a shift from volume-focused training to a training-stress focus • What we mean by intensity and how both polarized and sweet spot training play in • The three physiological assets that determine our level as cyclists — specifically aerobic capacity or VO2max, anaerobic threshold, and economy • And finally, we touch on periodization. Joe was the one who brought periodization to cycling and unfortunately, we were barely able to scratch the surface on this fascinating subject. Hopefully, we can convince Joe to come back for an entire episode on the topic… (In fact, there is plenty in the book we don’t even mention, but there’s a reason it’s called the Training Bible.) In addition to Joe Friel, our guests include: Frank Overton, the owner of FastCat coaching here in Boulder, CO. Frank has been a part of the history of cycling himself, helping in the early days when they were just figuring out the power-based metrics we now take for granted. But even Frank remembers The Cyclist’s Training Bible influencing him as a cat. 4 cyclist. And we talked with LottoNL-Jumbo rider Sepp Kuss who gives a very modern pro perspective on periodization. It’s not the old school traditional periodization of a dedicated base period and race phase. We, unfortunately, ran out of time to talk with Joe about it, but one of the big changes in the latest edition of the book is an entire chapter on the various periodization alternatives.

The Tour de France reached Carcassonne, the final stop before the second rest day, and Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and François Thomazeau discuss a second consecutive stage that was dominated by the breakaway riders. And the Astana team was celebrating for the second day in a row after Omar Fraile’s victory in Mende on Saturday. This time it was their Danish rider Magnus Cort who won. We hear how Astana planned their strategy from Cort’s team-mate Michael Valgren and sports director Lars Michaelsen and also from Trek-Segafredo’s Steven De Jongh about how their chance slipped away. Team Sky’s Nicolas Portal looks forward to the Pyrenees and Frans Maassen of LottoNL-Jumbo explains how they might use their twin threats in the mountains. All that plus the usual discussion of the latest news from the Tour de France. The Cycling Podcast is supported by Rapha and Science In Sport.

De Tourkaravaan trekt door Bretagne. De start is in La Baule, een plaats met een opmerkelijke tourgeschiedenis, weet Mart Smeets. In 1988 pakte de Italiaanse sprinter Guido ' De Bufffel' Bontempi er de gele trui. Omdat het om een niet-officiële proloog ging is er weinig over deze spooketappe terug te vinden. Martijn Hendriks zich zorgen over Herman van der Zandt. Is de presentator van De Avondetappe naar de haaien en moet Mart wegens trieste omstandigheden zijn comeback maken? Geen van de drie mannen had de uitslag van de ploegentijdrit van gisteren goed voorspeld, maar Mart had wel iets geroepen over BMC en voelt zich dus wel een morele winnaar, net als Joost wiens LottoNL-Jumbo het veel beter heeft gedaan dan een dertiende plek doet vermoeden. Dat belooft nog wat voor morgen...

This episode of The Cycling Podcast finds Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe in the queue to board the ferry from Messina in Sicily to the mainland – just as they did at a similar stage of the race last year. They reflect on a thrilling finish at Mount Etna, where the Australian Mitchelton-Scott team pulled off a stunning double by winning the stage and taking the pink jersey. Colombian rider Esteban Chaves won the stage, having been part of a large break packed with big-name riders. Just behind him, his team-mate Simon Yates jumped away from the group of favourites, closed the gap to Chaves and took the race lead from BMC Racing’s Rohan Dennis. The episode begins at the beginning with LottoNL-Jumbo rider George Bennett and Thibaut Pinot’s coach and brother Julien looking ahead to the climb of Etna. At the finish we hear from Mitchelton-Scott boss Matt White about their double success and defending champion Tom Dumoulin about how he fared in the race’s first big test. Plus we discuss the winners and losers on Etna. The Cycling Podcast is supported by Rapha and Science In Sport.

¡Nuevo podcast de El Maillot Semanal! Triste, pero cierto. La fabulosa y deseada victoria de Peter Sagan en la París-Roubaix del domingo quedó en un segundo plano a las 22:40h. de ese mismo día. A esa hora, el equipo Vérandas Willems-Crélan anunciaba en su cuenta de Twitter el fallecimiento de su ciclista Michael Goolaerts en uno de los hospitales de Lille. El joven belga de 23 años había sufrido un paro cardíaco durante la disputa del tercer Monumento de la temporada, al cual acudía para escoltar a su jefe de filas, Wout Van Aert. Tanto él como el inmenso Mundo ciclista se solidarizaron ante tal tragedia, la que convirtió a la París-Roubaix en un verdadero Infierno. Un día antes, Primoz Roglic confirmaba su superioridad en la Itzulia tras finalizar sin apuros las dos batallas finales en el País Vasco. Mikel Landa, segundo en la general, fue el único que logró inquietar al de LottoNL-Jumbo en la ascensión a Arrate, el lugar en el que Enric Mas estrenó su casillero como profesional. El viernes, fue Omar Fraile el que se llevó el gato al agua. Y, mientras el calendario sigue su curso, el pelotón World Tour hará su próxima parada en las clásicas de las Ardenas: Amstel Gold Race (domingo), Flecha Valona (miércoles) y Lieja-Bastoña-Lieja (domingo). Dirección llevada a cabo por Juan Clavijo. Comentarios de David García y César Cortés (Bemancio, en YouTube). HOY, te presentamos este menú: 1. Homenaje a Michael Goolaerts, ciclista fallecido el pasado domingo tras sufrir un paro cardíaco en plena París-Roubaix (00:00 - 02:52). 2. Analizamos el magnífico triunfo de Peter Sagan en el tercer Monumento de la temporada. El triple campeón del mundo se coronó en el velódromo de Roubaix tras superar en el esprint a un sobresaliente Silvan Dillier. ¡Además, escuchamos al completo el tema de Bemancio! (06:15 - 36:15). 3. Repasamos todo lo ocurrido en la Vuelta al País Vasco, donde el esloveno Primoz Roglic no dio lugar a las sorpresas y se adjudicó la general. Mikel Landa fue segundo, mientras que Omar Fraile y Enric Mas vencieron en las dos últimas jornadas (36:15 - 1:04:45). 4. Realizamos una breve previa de las dos citas iniciales de las Ardenas: la Amstel Gold Race y la Flecha Valona. ¿Logrará Alejandro Valverde su primera 'clásica cervecera'? (1:04:45 - 1:29:05). 5. Debatimos acerca de las invitaciones que ha repartido la Vuelta a España 2018: Burgos-BH, Euskadi Basque Country-Murias, Caja Rural-Seguros RGA y Cofidis. ¿Deberían invitar a más equipos tras la reducción del número de corredores por escuadra? ¡Os leemos! (1:29:05 - 1:40:54). ¡Recuerda que ya nos puedes encontrar en iTunes haciendo 'clic' AQUÍ!   SÍGUENOS EN: iTunes: El Maillot iVoox: El Maillot Twitter: @ElMaillot_ Facebook: @ElMaillotOficial Instagram: @elmaillot YouTube: El Maillot

We all know what fatigue feels like. It’s likely we’ve all experienced that exasperating feeling when our legs give out on a critical climb, or our sprint fails to materialize at the critical moment. But do you know what causes fatigue? In this episode of Fast Talk, we’ll attempt to unlock the mysteries of fatigue. Is it just lactic acid pooling in your legs, as your high school coach probably told you? No, that’s not it. The answer is actually a lot more complex than you’d think. In fact, some of the most exciting theories have only recently been proposed. This episode reveals those exciting revelations and explores the foundations of fatigue. First, we’ll discuss the many different physiological causes of fatigue, including muscle damage, glycogen depletion, body temperature, and why no one of these reasons fully explains fatigue, despite what some researchers might tell you. We’ll discuss an exciting new theory that suggests there’s a “central regulator” of fatigue, which integrates all of the different past theories and ultimately allows our mind to decide where our limits are. That is, could fatigue be, in part, a psychological thing. We ask the question, how much fatigue is actually a conscious choice that can be influenced by the length of the race, cues we give ourselves, and mental tricks. And finally, we’ll examine why we need to be careful about toying with our fatigue limits. Our guests include Dr. Stephen Cheung, an exercise physiologist and professor in the kinesiology department at Brock University in St. Catherine’s, Ontario, whose research interests include the effects of environmental stress on human physiology and performance. We’ll also hear from talented climber Sepp Kuss, a neo-pro with LottoNL-Jumbo, who will talk about his limits when racing.
