EVOQ.BIKE Cycling Podcast

The planning is so important.

Brody and Josh chat about everything cx related! Brody just got back from racing all three UCI World Cup CX races in the U.S. so the conversation focuses on the intricacies of planning, training, and racing multiple top level races in three different states within 8 days!   Big thanks to Brody for taking the time to chat and drop some knowledge!  Be sure to give him a follow for MTB videos and CX course preview rides! @brody_sanderson   https://www.awicycling.com/   Topics; Cycling Goals Jumping into Elite Races Season Travel Preferred CX Season Prep CX Tech Skills Practice Running & Strength Training for CX Breaking Down CX Courses into Chunks World Cup Race Dissection World Championship Race Selection If you enjoy training articles, check them here: www.evoq.bike/blog Josh@EVOQ.BIKE | @mr.nogggle | @evoqbike Thanks for listening!

https://www.evoq.bike/blog/2019/4/11/how-to-pace-a-time-trial-in-cycling It's all about course recon, managing the surges to keep your speed high, avoid exploding, and finishing strong! These thoughts on energy production above FTP can be applied to road racing also, and I have a new post coming soon!

Another VLOG, with some podcast extras. In this video episode, https://youtu.be/GXmsAykqS7w, I give a quick run down of the bike (might be changing things up soon!), view some North Carolina Roads, and hit some sprints. Then, how do you beat a true sprinter, and why you shouldn't look too deeply at PMAX. Topics Include: Lifting weights with your ARMS for sprints. How often are you practicing sprints? True Base Miles on Fixed Gears? PMAX? Not a true test of your finishing kick. Aero matters, positioning matters, and TIMING matters the most. How do you beat a "true sprinter"? Brendan @EVOQ. BIKE @BrendanHousler on social channels. www.lactigo.com/brendan

We are back with Episode 4, the BikeRadio show, with Josh and Brendan. Topics include, a lot, but majority of: Race travel Music while riding? Cyclocross journey When to ride hard in CX race How this applies to road racing KOM Hunting Brendan's training the past 2 months Base miles? Only endurance? When can I ride tempo? Indoor Cycling Sweet spot; somehow this always comes up Hiking tidbits Foundational Aerobic Volume. FAV! Josh@EVOQ.BIKE Brendan@EVOQ.BIKE https://youtu.be/uSyrCn4Fer0

What is Matt's history with CBD? I was skeptical; you read up on CBD and it cures everything; how did they separate out the different product lines? Like this one: https://www.hellobluecbd.com/cbd-oil-store/joint-and-muscle-pain-advantage/ How does it relate to cyclists and athletes? Where do you get it/sourced; is it WADA compliant? question you get asked the most? I share my story about my QL injury, hurt hip flexor, and CBD Pain Capsules (season saver!) Comment below if you're going to try it (code: Brendan15) or if you still think it's snake oil. It's not, but I'd love to hear your experience! Brendan @EVOQ. BIKE @BrendanHousler on social channels If you watch this and decide to try the product (you're missing out if you don't try the chamoi creme!), code Brendan15 is 30% until Oct 31 2021 and includes a ton of freebies, like my favorite Pain Capsules. https://youtu.be/usI18sXQBvM
