    Strong Enough To Speak: Taking On A 70.3 For ANDYS MAN CLUB

    This week we are joined by Kenny, Barts and Alex from Andy’s Man Club for a conversation that brings together humour, honesty, inspiration and a topic that matters deeply. We chat about the incredible work Andy’s Man Club does in supporting men across the UK, breaking down stigma and creating spaces where it’s okay to talk. We also dive into their own journey as they take on the challenge of a 70.3 triathlon. From training highs and lows to balancing life, mental health and endurance sport, there’s plenty of laughter alongside some powerful and meaningful conversations. A brilliant reminder that no one should struggle alone, and that sometimes the biggest challenges happen both on and off the race course.

    Beyond The Power Meter

    This week on the podcast we dive into why riding a bike fast is about far more than just chasing power numbers. From the skill of riding, to why speed matters more than most people realise, to choosing the right power for race day — we unpack what actually makes athletes faster. And we finish with the big debate… Would you rather: * gain 10 watts of power or * save 10 watts through aerodynamics? Sounds simple… until the hosts had to answer it themselves 👀

    Race Season Starts Now

    We’re back this week diving into everything you need for triathlon race season and spring marathons - so you can hit the start line feeling confident, prepared, and ready to perform. We’re also sharing some of our biggest racing mistakes, so you can learn from them (and have a laugh at our expense) without making the same faux pas yourself. And for this week’s ice, we’re calling out “the lane hopper.” We’ve got opinions… but we want yours too. Is it ever acceptable, or as Tom puts it... “you can swim anywhere… just not here”? 👀

    Making Strength Work For Triathlon

    We kick off this week’s pod with a quick (and slightly amusing) chat about “crotch-gate” at the Winter Olympics — if you’ve missed it, you’re in for a laugh. If you’ve been tuning in regularly, you’ll already know the fundamentals of strength training for triathlon and how to get started. This episode goes a step further. We take a deeper dive into strength training with hosts Tom and Milly, who also run Total Strength Endurance. Together, we unpack the do’s and don’ts, and highlight where athletes and coaches often go wrong when prescribing strength training for endurance athletes. And of course… this week’s ick. Let us know what you think 🎧

    Fuelling Fundamentals: How To Eat For Endurance Over Christmas

    This week’s podcast features performance nutritionist and run coach Lily, who works with Kelsie (yes, our Kelsie — at NXP Coaching). Lily is basically endurance royalty: she completed a 250km ultramarathon this year and an Ironman, which officially makes the rest of us feel like we need a nap. She joins us to chat all things off-season nutrition — how to survive the festive food minefield without derailing your goals, which supplements are actually worth your money, and how to enjoy December without needing to enter nutritional witness protection in January. And this week’s “ick”? For the first time in a while, we get a unanimous agreement. You’ll have to listen and judge for yourself. So grab your favourite mince pie (or three — we’re not judging) and tune in 🎙️✨
