Episode 168 - Zwift Racing, Snorkel Training, and Should You Be Increasing Lean Mass for Improved Glycogen Stores? Hello everyone. Welcome to the latest episode of The Matchbox Podcast powered by Ignition Coach Co. I'm your host, Adam Saban, and on this week's episode we talk about Zwift Racing, Snorkel Training, and whether or not you should be chasing those lean mass muscle gains in search of increased glycogen storage.   As always, if you like what you hear, share this with your friends and leave us a five star review and if you have any questions for the show drop us an email at matchboxpod@gmail.com or head over to ignitioncoachco.com and fill out The Matchbox Podcast listener question form.    Alight let's get into it!   For more social media content, follow along @ignitioncoachco @adamsaban6 @dizzle_dillman @dylanjawnson @kait.maddox     https://patreon.com/MatchboxPodcast?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink   https://www.youtube.com/c/DylanJohnsonCycling https://www.ignitioncoachco.com  https://www.youtube.com/@DrewDillmanChannel   Intro/ Outro music by AlexGrohl - song "King Around Here" - https://pixabay.com/music/id-15045/    The following was generated using Riverside.fm AI technologies   Summary In this conversation, the hosts discuss various aspects of Zwift racing, including training structure, the nature of Zwift races, and how to balance racing with endurance training. They also debunk the myth of snorkel training for fitness and explore the relationship between muscle mass and glycogen storage, concluding that while muscle mass can be beneficial, it may not significantly impact glycogen storage for endurance athletes.     Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Zwift Racing and Training Structure 07:04 Understanding the Nature of Zwift Racing 11:36 Balancing Intensity and Recovery in Training 14:24 Exploring Snorkel Training and Breathing Techniques 14:45 Debunking Altitude Training Myths 17:34 Understanding Respiratory Training Devices 21:52 Evaluating the Efficacy of Snorkel Training 24:18 The Role of Muscle Mass in Glycogen Storage 27:33 Strength Training and Endurance Performance

Kugellager?! Unser Besuch bei CeramicSpeed, Spezialist für ganz besonders haltbare keramische Kugellager, hat uns mal wieder viel Input gebracht: Wo sind überall Kugellager drin, was sind die Unterschiede zwischen Stahl- und Keramikkugellagern und vor allem auch: welche Unterschiede gibt es auch in den Qualitäten der Keramischen Kugellager am Markt. Auch hier kann man sehr ins Detail gehen: eine perfekte keramische Kugel braucht 60-70 Tage, bis sie überhaupt gefertigt ist. Also sehr spannendes Thema über ein Fahrradteil, dass meist unsichtbar am Rad verbaut seine Dienste tut. ZWIFT: Ist ZWIFT es immer noch wert, 20 Euro im Monat auszugeben? Was gefällt uns an ZWIFT und warum zieht es nicht auf andere, auch sehr gute Trainingsplattformen? Gummiband bei ZWIFT: unsere Rides jetzt alle per Gummiband. Das macht Fahrten inklusiver und vor allem auch stressfreier. Ingo erklärt ganz gut, warum er es erst nicht wollte und jetzt feiert. Dazu viele Picks zu anderen Challenges, draußen und ZWIFT und vor allem auch zu befreundeten Communities auf ZWIFT. Irgendwie wird das Fahren bei ZWIFT mehr und mehr zum Erlebnis dank der tollen Menschen, mit denen man zusammen fährt.

Send us a textWhat does it take to chase Ultraman while working 12-hour shifts in emergency care? We sit down with Erica Riley—critical care nurse, coach, and multi-time ultradistance triathlete—to unpack the systems, habits, and mindset that make high performance sustainable in a busy life.  From 3 a.m. Zwift rides to meticulous time boxing, she shows exactly how to build consistency without sacrificing your health, your job, or your relationships.Erica takes us inside the toughest days of lockdown, when PPE, quarantine hotels, and strict radius rules forced radical creativity: ocean swims inside a five-kilometer bubble, stacked run commutes, and eight-hour trainer marathons. That crucible led her to Ultraman and a new goal—to not only finish but compete—under coach Tim Franklin of KOA Sports. We explore the art of crew selection, live-stream storytelling, and keeping a tight bond with the UM Australia Ohana.Nutrition and strength become Erica's quiet superpowers. Longtime plant-based, she refined protein intake, embraced whole foods, and saw clear changes in lean mass and visceral fat. Race fuel is simple and effective: Infinite custom blends, salty chips when the gut turns, and a well-timed orange Fanta for mood and carbs. Off the course, her secret weapon is reformer Pilates—45 minutes that deliver strength, mobility, posture, and injury prevention for time-poor athletes who need durability as much as speed.We also dig into coaching. With Synergy Sports Coaching, Erica builds plans for real people—shift workers, parents, and professionals—using TrainingPeaks as a living diary. She treats sessions like meetings you won't miss, teaches sleep hygiene around rotating rosters, and helps athletes fit training into life, not the other way around. Along the way, she shares favorite races (hello, Cairns and Nha Trang), a brutal and beautiful lead-in at Alpine Ascent Extreme, and the mindset work that turned perfectionism from procrastination into fuel.If you want practical tools to train smarter, eat better, and perform under pressure, you'll find tangible tactics you can use today.

Show Notes — "Level Up Your Life" In today's episode, Baylor dives into a surprising lesson from his first week of Ironman training and his introduction to the Zwift cycling platform. What was supposed to be an hour-and-four-minute indoor ride suddenly turned into an all-out international competition — flags from around the world on the screen, points on the line, and a virtual character to level up like a real-life video game. That moment triggered a powerful realization: If you find a way to gamify the hard things in your life, they stop feeling like chores and start feeling like challenges. Baylor breaks down why gamification works, how competition wakes up the best in us, and how to build "level-up metrics" for your career, relationships, fitness, finances — anything that matters. You'll learn why relying on discipline alone isn't sustainable, why some of your goals feel boring or heavy, and the simple psychological shift that can reignite motivation instantly. This episode is your permission slip to stop grinding blindly… and start competing intentionally. What You'll Learn Why gamification instantly boosts motivation How competing — even virtually — triggers progress The importance of tracking your own "levels" in life How to create metrics that show you whether you're actually growing Why people feel stuck even when they are improving How rewards create momentum (and how to pick the right rewards) The truth about competitiveness (and why you need some of it) A practical framework to make boring tasks enjoyable How to build a year that pushes you forward instead of keeping you flat Featured Quote "When you gamify your progress, life stops feeling like work and starts feeling like a level you're meant to beat."

Pro Coach Sierra Sims (M.S. Exercise Physiology) breaks down the science and technique behind muscle tension intervals: one of the most effective ways to turn gym strength into real power on the bike.   Whether you're building your base, coming back from the off-season, or looking to climb stronger, these workouts teach your neuromuscular system to produce MORE torque and apply it efficiently across the pedal stroke.   You'll learn: ✔️ What muscle tension (high-torque) intervals actually are ✔️ Why low cadence is so effective for force production ✔️ How to combine torque work with strength training for maximum gains ✔️ How WorldTour pros use torque blocks from October–February ✔️ How to structure these sessions indoors or outdoors ✔️ Real-world workout examples you can try this week  ✔️ How to avoid knee pain and progress safely   Watch till the end where Sierra shows you two practical ways to perform these intervals so you can do them anywhere — on Zwift, on climbs, or on rolling terrain.

Sure, we've reviewed the fastest World Tour aero road bikes and the newest gravel machines, but what about an off-road capable folding bike? Variety is the spice of life, and Velo tech editor Alvin Holbrook has been getting spicy on Brompton's G Line, a bike that should be more capable than any of the legendary UK brand's previous offerings, thanks to larger wheels and much better tires and brakes. Alvin rode the G Line on his usual gravel test loop and reports back on how it performed and what type of rider it makes the most sense for. Would you wear AI on your face? Josh Ross has been in the shape of Oakley's new – and very expensive – Vanguard glasses that come with a video camera, mic and headphones, and a connection to artificial intelligence that's ready to answer *almost* any question you might have. Josh answers our questions, without any AI help, about what the Vanguards are like to live with, why they might have the best mic and headphones for cycling, and explains how they can actually cost less than buying separate glasses, headphones, and a camera. Levy has that new bike fizz after buying an Allied Able and shares some of his early ride impressions, as well as how it compares to his much-loved Santa Cruz Stigmata that he's lived on for the previous two years. Is it love at first ride, or might there be some regrets? Further reading Q36.5's New Cold-Weather Jackets Fit Like A … Condom?

We chocolatized our life before this amazing episode! The main topic was a new study on elite marathoners measuring responses to different carb intakes, finding a 2.6% lower oxygen cost at 120 grams per hour compared to 60 grams per hour. It showed massive carb oxidation rates at high outputs. In 10 years, we might look back on this study as a game-changing moment in the science of endurance performance. And this one had so many cool topics! Other topics: Megan's biggest uphill treadmill threshold workout, David's Zwift racing, the strange connection between energy intake and iron deficiency, how hydration could influence stress responses, the predictive power of smiling in pre-race photos, Anne Flower's 50 mile world record, other records at Tunnel Hill, whether to walk onto the track team, offseason layoffs, race week nutrition, and AI messaging.Stick around for a beautiful affirming Listener Corner message!

Tech editor Alvin Holbrook fires up Velo's crystal ball to make some predictions about what the road and gravel world might look like in 2026. He makes his case for peak tire width combined with improved casings, more integrated pressure-monitoring systems (and more batteries), Chinese gravel bikes shaking up the market, and the continued slow demise of 2X drivetrains. But is he channelling Edgar Cayce, or are his divinations more in line with Miss Cleo? Josh, Alvin, and Levy also discuss how prepared they are (or aren't) for a mid-ride disaster, and the crew describes their own go-to repair kit that they each bring on every single ride. Also, when is it best to just call someone to come pick you up? Want to join Josh on his Zwift group ride? See the info here. See more episodes of the Velo Podcast here.

When Kate Veronneau started cycling, she was at a low point. Having to stop playing basketball because of one-too-many injuries, she never anticipated that this rolling coping mechanism would change the trajectory of her life. Now working as Zwift's Director of Women's Strategy, she's embracing the pivot to the fullest. In this week's episode, she talks about the power of alignment and following her passions, what it was like to build community during a global pandemic, and how she feels about the company stepping in as the title sponsor of Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift. Plus: What she's learned along the way, how she anticipates the sport to grow in the future, and how it feels to be a vocal leader (especially on the days she's not feeling so shiny).
