This Roadman Cycling guide by Anthony Walsh tackles a common issue for endurance riders: a higher heart rate at the same power. Drawing on thousands of athlete files, Walsh explains five fixable causes—dehydration and low sodium, heat and poor cooling, under-developed aerobic base, stimulants or medications, and stress or fatigue—plus a bonus myth about faulty sensors. For each, he gives quick fixes riders can apply immediately and longer-term protocols to build resilience. The takeaway: a rising heart rate isn't a verdict on your fitness but a signal about conditions, habits, and recovery that you can address.NOMIO is clinically proven to:Lower lactate levels, Reduce oxidative stress, Improve training adaptations And deliver a noticeable boost from the very first dose.

Today I'm sitting down with Dr. Filip Larsen, the physiologist behind a tiny green shot that pros say helps them go harder with less burn. One preprint shows lower blood lactate at the same power after a single dose; WorldTour riders like Mads Pedersen claim they feel a real boost. But is it biology or placebo? We'll unpack the science, design a blinded test I can do on the bike, and then go way beyond the drink: overtraining, CGMs, mitochondria, and how to actually train smarter.

Joe Friel has been coaching endurance athletes since 1980 and is widely credited with bringing periodization into mainstream cycling training. In this conversation, we dig into how his training philosophy has evolved over four decades, what athletes still get wrong about planning their seasons, and how to adapt training for riders over 50. From time-crunched training to the 9-day cycle, Friel shares insights on balancing intensity, measuring load, and making the most of recovery and adaptation. We also touch on data obsession, zone-based training, and whether AI can ever replace a human coach. If you're serious about getting faster—and smarter—on the bike, this episode is packed with practical wisdom from one of the sport's most respected minds.NOMIO is clinically proven to:Lower lactate levels, Reduce oxidative stress, Improve training adaptations And deliver a noticeable boost from the very first dose.

What if one of the biggest Tour de France performance secrets isn't altitude—but heat? In this episode, we break down the science of heat training and how it can legally boost haemoglobin mass by 3–4%, increase VO₂ max by ~6%, and add up to 30 watts to your FTP. From Pogačar's heat suit sessions to Vingegaard's overdressed intervals, we explore how WorldTour pros are using CORE sensors to fine-tune their performance. You'll learn how it works, why it works, and the exact protocols to try at home—including passive options like hot baths.

Forget doping—pro cycling's most impactful unfair advantage is hiding in plain sight. This video exposes the truth about TV motorbikes and team cars create powerful slipstreams that change races like the Tour de France, often determining stage wins.

Why do cyclists shave their legs? For decades, we've been told it's for speed — Specialized even claimed it saves 79 seconds over 40km. But what if that science is flawed? In this video, we dig into the real reasons behind cycling's most iconic (and weirdest) ritual — from old-school tradition to group ride psychology. With insights from wind tunnel studies, Olympic bike designers, and pro riders like Alex Howes and Primož Roglič, we uncover why smooth legs became the ultimate badge of belonging in the peloton. It's about more than watts — it's about identity, trust, and culture. If you've ever wondered whether you should shave, this is the deep dive you didn't know you needed.Surfshark - Online security starts with a VPN and I trust Surfshark.

What does it take to drop world-class riders like Van der Poel, Simmons, and Yates on a Tour de France mountain stage? For Ben Healy, it wasn't just power or tactics — it was fueling. Healy consumed nearly 140g of carbohydrates per hour on his way to a dominant solo win on Stage 6, and today we're breaking down exactly how he did it. With insights from WorldTour nutritionist Dr. Sam Impey, this video explores why fueling has become the new performance frontier — and what amateur cyclists can learn from it. We cover gut training, carb strategies, and why most cyclists are under-fueled, not under-trained. Surfshark - Online security starts with a VPN and I trust Surfshark.

Cycling used to be about skill — race craft, resilience, knowing when to attack. Now? It's about looking good. Style has overtaken substance, and nowhere is that clearer than with Pas Normal Studios. In this episode, we dive into how the Copenhagen-based brand transformed high-end kit into a status symbol. It's not just clothing — it's a cultural signal. €300 bibs, curated café stops, matching socks and frame paint… Pas Normal didn't just sell apparel, they redefined what it means to “look like a cyclist.” But at what cost? We explore whether this shift elevated the sport — or hollowed it out. If you've ever felt underdressed at a group ride, this one's going to hit home.Surfshark - Online security starts with a VPN and I trust Surfshark.

What happens when a lifelong Cat 1 racer cuts training volume in half? For 12 years, I trained 12–15 hours weekly. Then life changed — and I dropped to 6. This episode breaks down exactly what happened: the watts lost, the kilos gained, and the reality behind the numbers. Using 3 years of TrainingPeaks data, I compare my fitness at both ends — and reflect on the science (Seiler, Rønnestad, Mujika) that predicted it all. This isn't about shortcuts. It's about understanding the trade-offs: performance vs sustainability, volume vs life. If you've ever wondered whether you can get fast on 6 hours a week — this is the honest, data-backed answer.

Netflix spent €8 million to bring cycling to a global audience — and got it completely wrong. In this episode, we unpack how Unchained misrepresented the Tour de France, damaged trust with riders, and failed to grasp the sport's unique culture of silence, strategy, and sacrifice. From Wout van Aert's “disturbing” portrayal to key moments cut from the final edit, we explore what happens when Hollywood storytelling clashes with cycling's unwritten code. Only 8 of 22 teams agreed to return for Season 2 — a clear signal that something broke. This is more than a bad documentary. It's a case study in how not to tell a story — and a reminder of what makes this sport sacred.Surfshark - Online security starts with a VPN and I trust Surfshark.

What happens when chasing performance drains the joy that once drove it? In this episode, I sit down with Shannon Malseed — former pro cyclist turned mindset advocate — for a powerful reflection on the hidden cost of high achievement. Shannon shares her journey from elite sport to inner rediscovery, challenging the idea that success must mean sacrifice. We explore the athlete mentality, burnout, subconscious patterns, and the endless pursuit of external validation. This conversation is about redefining success, reclaiming authenticity, and finding fulfillment not at the finish line, but in the everyday process of being true to yourself.
