    Bradley Wiggins on addiction recovery, Olympic gold and life after cycling | Back Your Body

    ❗ Warning: This episode contains discussion of sexual abuse, safeguarding concerns, disordered eating, and weight-cutting practices in elite sport, which some listeners may find distressing.   Sir Bradley Wiggins joins Ellie Taylor for a powerful conversation about identity, resilience and rebuilding your life when the thing that defined you is gone. The five-time Olympic gold medallist and Tour de France winner opens up about the trauma that fuelled his success, the pressures of elite sport and the addiction, recovery and therapy that followed retirement. Bradley also shares the habits that keep him grounded today – from creatine and strength training to early-morning walks, hydration and better sleep. In the Science Break, H&B Science Guy Alex Glover explores BCAAs – what they are and why they’re often discussed in relation to exercise and training, and what the research says about soreness after exercise.  Disclaimer – The views and experiences shared are those of the guest and reflect their personal account.
