What to do when you don’t want structure but want some workouts to do? What about when life stress derails your workouts, and you just want to ride? Is the workout creating more stress in your life (ruminating about hitting the numbers, etc)? Is "just riding" the answer? How can we be malleable with workouts? People are recognizing that sweet spot is not the answer to getting faster; it’s just bur...

It’s not watts.

When and how to adjust the training calendar accordingly. Cost/benefit. Aayyeeee Monday Let’s Go!!!

Oh yeah, hunky dorey peachy keen but at min 10 I do explain that of course things can get frustrating; but it’s just biking, and it will work out. 🚀🚀🚀🚀

Yes, we could easily take the monies from templates and consult requests; here’s why we don’t do them, and instead offer a Free Power File Analysis. It's simply to help you on the education side to point your training in the right way if you can't afford coaching. I'm not saying we're martyrs; hopefully that tone shines through this channel. I just require our coaches to be willing to give so...
