Ep 191- - Should Endurance Athletes Focus on Effective Reps for Strength Training?

Many think cyclists need to hit the weights hard like they do their bike training, but that's a misconception- and a huge, massive mistake... Performance-driven strength training doesn't need to be insanely hard. The "effective rep" theory, which pushes training to slow grindy speeds, has been slowly picking up steam the last few months, and a listener recently asked if they should be training using the "effective rep"approach. My answer, may surprise you- as well as the background of this theory and where it originated from. Hint: it ain't no research study. Take a listen to get the scoop!

Ep 190- From the vault: Sebastian Weber: "Free Speed" in Cycling and Triathlon; How You Ride Matters

Free speed is a game changer in cycling that most overlook. Why? Because it's all about efficiency: better cornering, positioning, and reducing drag. Think about it: every time you brake before a corner, you're wasting kinetic energy you've worked hard to generate. Instead, focus on maintaining flow and minimizing energy loss. In races, this can be the difference between finishing strong or falling behind. Most cyclists overlook the importance of maintaining their bike fit position once they leave the fitter. But guess what? Your position is as crucial as your power output. Imagine increasing your speed just by staying in the right position—no extra effort, just pure efficiency.  In this episode we pull the second half of Episode 59 with Sebastian Weber to talk about HOW you ride matters. Time to make you faster and more savvy!

This week we pull an episode from the vault, with Dr. Sarah Duvall sharing insights about breathing for improved performance, prolapse, and diastasis and their considerations in the return to sport for postpartum women. You might think diastasis only affects postpartum women, but it also hits men—especially those over 50. It’s not just about muscle strength, but how well your core muscles coordinate. Dr. Sarah Duvall shared amazing insights on common fears like prolapse, diastasis, and leaking. Women often think these issues are permanent, but many can be managed or even overcome with proper rehab. Diastasis, especially, doesn't have to hold you back.  ⁠Dr. Duvall's Pelvis Pro Course - Open for enrollment until December 1, 2024⁠ Strength Training for Cyclists Certification Course Closes this Sunday November 17, 2024 Subscribe to the HVTraining YouTube Channel: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/HVTraining⁠ Join the FREE Facebook Community ⁠HVTraining’s Strength Training for Cyclists & Triathletes⁠ Coach Brodie's Book ⁠“Strength Training for Cycling Performance”⁠
