I look forward to each new show

I started listening about a year ago and am hooked. The podcast give me new insight into my training and helps me to continually improve

Awful training advice

Please do yourself a favor and get coaching advice elsewhere. This is a sure fire way to plateau or get burned out. Some of the intervals he’s advocated for on the show are physiologically impossible if your ftp is set correctly.

old man still trying

i always enjoy Rob’s way of making science seem simple and how he applies to to real world use
