    Ep 176- That Fat Loss Episode

    Ep 176- That Fat Loss Episode

    For many endurance athletes looking to boost performance, one of the most common questions I get is "How do I boost my watts per kilo with fat loss?"

    While for many riders the answer is far more about better managing their energy, putting their focus on rest and recovery, or simply eating more....for others who do have a higher than healthy body fat percentage, fat loss is a legitimate and sometimes very necessary path.

    In this episode we share the 8 foundational points that any endurance athlete (or gym goer) needs in order to heathily and more easily lose fat- or to be more precise: How to properly change your Body Composition.

    Ep 175- Dan Lundenberg on Finding the Right Coach For You

    Ep 175- Dan Lundenberg on Finding the Right Coach For You

    Finding a good coach can be a challenge...but finding the RIGHT coach for you? It's like a needle in a haystack: knowing what you're looking for really helps, but it's also a little bit of luck, and a lot of time.

    In this episode Masters rider Dan Lundenberg shares his journey to finding (and keeping) great coaches over the last 10 years. Including: 10 years with the same strength coach (who is not a cyclist) as well as moving through 4 different cycling coaches to find one(s) that would meet him where he is and be a partner in his development and long term health and abilities.

    Dan, is like most of us in that he truly enjoys being competitive and riding his bike, but he has a focus on long term health abilities.

    It's time to become smarter and more savvy about your investment in working with a coach!

    How about Post Activation Potentiation (PAP) and Riding your bike after strength training- is there anything to that?

    Grab your favorite coffee and a notepad, we get into some of the big, juicy questions that many riders have about strength training for performance!

KaseyH76 ,

Great show triathletes, cyclist, runners, any endurance athletes!

I’m probably a little biased as a former guest of the show, but I keep tuning in to learn a ton from Coach Brodie and his wide mix of amazing guest! Great mix of science-backed info and state of the art coaching insights. Keep the great work Coach!

Learning strength and philosophy

I am enjoying the insight Coach Brodie and his guests have about training and the philosophical angle brought to it. I’m a process and analysis of the big picture person when it comes to my training and this right up my alley.

Thanks!

Really enjoying the podcast. Weight training is my new focus for 2020 and I’m learning all kinds of good things to fix my posture and hopefully make me faster
