  • Great Show but

    Come on- you know that AG1 is a sham and it’s beneath you to push it on your channel. Other than that appreciate your insights and especially your interviews.

  • Good stuff - just one thing …

    Some of the episodes seem to be edited such that all the gaps between sentences and thoughts are removed. The result can be a very unnatural flow and not very pleasing to listen to. I don’t know why they do this.

  • Podcast has gone downhill

    The podcast was varied with a nice mix of conversations. It has gotten really boring over the last few months. I think the presenters have lost interest in it

  • Episode 1, 101 is a gem

    Episode 1,101 with Erin Ayala

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Sometimes the Roadman pod can be a bit well, let's just say wanting; HOWEVER, with a proper expert guest and a willingness from Anthony to listen (more than talk) can be one of the best podcasts ever for a cyclist. This episode was 100% great!

    Thank you Erin! (and Anthony).

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What It Really Takes To Win Badlands With Piotr Havik
Q: What was your sleep strategy?
Havik did not sleep during the race. When he felt dizzy, he stopped for food and drink, and his symptoms cleared. He said he would otherwise consider brief power naps to reset his brain.
What It Really Takes To Win Badlands With Piotr Havik
Q: How did you factor in this kind of real food and build it into your fueling strategy around bike-specific food?
Havik planned supermarket stops and chose portable, carbohydrate-rich soft white rolls. Following advice from Rob Britton, he ate solid food early, had pasta, and avoided relying only on sports nutrition and sugar throughout the race.
The Best Strength Training Advice For Cyclists
Q: How do you approach designing a strength program specifically for cyclists?
Start with a foundation of hip hinge, upper-body push/pull, and loaded carries, then ensure mobility and proper movement before loading. Use a progression from light, high-rep work to strength and then power, and adapt based on bike volume and season.
How Elite Athletes Manipulate Fuel To Get Faster With Dr John Bartlett
Q: What was the early state of carbohydrate research and how did it influence coaching practices?
Carbohydrate strategies evolved from a rigid carb-heavy or carb-restricted mindset to a more nuanced, periodised approach where carbohydrate intake is matched to training load and competition demands to optimize adaptation and performance.
How Amateur Cyclists Can Lose Weight Like Remco
Q: Is it inevitable to lose power when trying to cut weight for a cyclist like Remco?
The guest explains that power loss is not inevitable if weight is shed carefully, typically through a balanced reduction in fat and possibly some lean mass, using a well-supported support system and gradual deficits.
