EVOQ.BIKE Cycling Podcast

Hi there really enjoyed your last podcast interview with Pablo Cruz, and picked up on your brief conversation regarding rest week and how are you feel afterwards. I always seem to struggle with dead legs the power and heart rate is all good, but perceived effort is much higher. How should you attack the week after rest week shock to the system? ease back in slowly? 

Curtis White sat down with Josh to chat before the Pan American and CX National Championships. Curtis drops so much knowledge. Some highlights include listening to your body for training sessions and backing things off when things don’t feel right, and dialing in your race-day prep through trial and error.  Thanks for watching!

Cat 4 Questions is back! I think it would be really interesting to hear about your and other peoples mental approach for difficult workouts and races.  For workouts: what is your optimal level of arousal / excitement?  self talk or in-the moment mindful ness?  what is your emotional perception of the sensations (pain and suffering?  discomfort?  associating exercise discomfort with positive things?)  And I guess similar for races + how do you keep keep things under wrap until it is time to unleash hell?

A 30,000 foot view is very beneficial at this point of the year, and how to apply this to our future training cycles.
