Rethinking Cycling Training: The Importance of Strength and Cadence

Back for a solo episode to demystify some common false beliefs about cycling. I will clarify some falsehoods related to cadence and some common misconceptions about suffering in the saddle. I expand on the idea that poor breathing is a systemic problem in our culture and outline the correct technique. Finally, I’ll share some ideas around expanding your movement practice to other activities or functions outside of riding. More time in the saddle doesn’t always lead to growing as a cyclist. Ride in flow.
