  • Interesting info, but poor sound quality

    Maybe it’s just me but the guest volume is very low with poor sound quality and the interviewer is very loud with good sound quality. It is rather annoying.

  • Polarized training saved my cycling life!

    Episode 9. After listening to Steven Seiler (on this and other podcasts) as well as Steve Neil (on another podcast) my cycling life has avoided recurrent over training & burnout phases. I started cycling about four years ago using TrainerRoad; HIT sessions were great at first but I soon realized that the method TR offered was biased toward selling their HIT product. Their advice devolved into distracted babbling.

    It led to recurrent overtraining with decreased performance which was demotivating... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What Sets Elite Athletes Apart | Scott Johnston - Season 8 Episode 8
Q: What role does trust and the coach-athlete relationship play in getting athletes to the start line confidently?
Trust is built over years through consistent communication, transparency, and showing evidence of progress. The coach provides a structured progression that demonstrates improvement, which gives athletes the confidence to start well and stay disciplined during the race.
What Sets Elite Athletes Apart | Scott Johnston - Season 8 Episode 8
Q: How do you handle defeats or DNFs in ultra events, and help athletes recover mentally?
Debrief analytically after a race, separating emotion from data, and determine pacing and strategic errors. Emphasize ego control, gradual progression, and learning from mistakes, while maintaining a long-term view that every race is a learning opportunity and not the final measure of worth.
What Sets Elite Athletes Apart | Scott Johnston - Season 8 Episode 8
Q: How do you continue to develop year over year for premier athletes and maintain their engagement?
Start with identifying the low-hanging fruit for each athlete, then build a base that addresses fundamental qualities (aerobic base, strength, and muscular endurance). Progress gradually from general base work to increasingly specific training as fitness improves, ensuring daily communication and feedback so athletes feel understood and backed by data.
Peak Access Episode 6 — Taking Women's Cycling to a New Level – 2026 Tour de France Femmes
Q: Who do you think will win the GC given the current stage results?
The guests suggest Demi is a strong favorite, but the dynamics remain fluid with ongoing climbs and potential breakaways; a decisive moment could come on upcoming long climbs where the big gaps could emerge.
Closing Cycling's Data Gap for Women with Callum McQueen
Q: What differences do you consider between the men's and women's tours in terms of preparation?
The nine-stage women's tour demands maximizing performance each day within a shorter window, requiring careful management of training load, nutrition, and recovery, and a different approach to tapering and strategy.
