Part 2 - The Hard Work
The “White Witch” is back to discuss the work required from the rider in order to get the most from their new bike position, and we come up against a familiar problem using the car analogy finally - when a sound engine is let down by poor bodywork!
Today's conversation also covers:
- Scapula stability and its impact on rider comfort and run performance
- Why you must take care of the Soleus muscle
- The startling revelation that endurance athletes should spend 30-60 minutes per day on their strength, conditioning, and mobility
- Further confirmation that reducing aerobic training and increasing conditioning work will give better overall results
- How to produce your FTP power in the aero position
- Breathing pattern disorder, why you probably have one and how it’s limiting your performance
- The compromise between your most aero tri bike position and the one which helps you to run fastest
