I started cycling at 29. - No background - No connections - No endurance 6 years later: - Solid foundation of knowledge - Strong relationships with fellow athletes - Top-level fitness in my age group You can start whenever you want to build something great.

4 minutes of dynamic stretching reduces perceived exhaustion by 20%. That’s why mobility drills belong in your warm-up before hard training sessions! They increase: - Neuronal activity - Range of motion - Blood flow to muscles A simple, cost-free performance booster every cyclist should use.

@faustocoppi60 Women's pro cycling deserves more media attention.

@VelonCC @dnlbenson Who could have thought. He was just having a great training ride in northern France.

@Joey90641274317 @FitFounder My take: Anecdotal or just scam hitting THE pain point of aging men.

@milesgfowler No doubts.

@UltraRunner26 100% I want my energy back. Doing everything from discipline just isn't cool.

@hpfounder @FitFounder "According to the scientific evidence, the number of calories burned by 1 pound of muscle at rest is approximately 6 calories per day, a far cry from the often touted 50 calories." Do both, strength training and cardio. Period.

@laflammerouge16 I like this guy. He embodies a healthier area of cycling having top level athletes weighing more than 60kg.

@cycloben2 Hey Bence. I don't get it either. Why cutting out entire stages which are "dangerous" and having each finish line after a descent instead.

I was having a look into a study recently. I think it was from 2016. What struck me most, was: " over 50 % obese or mortally obese".

@jonkalis Good question. You better have your digestion finished before going on a run.

@Cyclingnewsfeed After all he's just a human being wanting to try something new!

@DavidDack Unfortunately I don't have talent as a runner. But I have to confess: it always gives me a better feeling after finishing a workout than cycling. I'm hyped and happy for 10 hours in a row ... damn maybe I have to cross-train.

@CyclingGraphs 6 seconds is impressively consistent given that stage races throw a unpredictable number of performance factors on cyclist!

I fully understand. You’ve spent decades building this body and performance—why stop now? Retiring while you’ve still got years left in the tank? Nonsense! Just look at ex-world tour riders crushing it in gravel racing. The ride never ends.

@tancredipalmeri My hometown ❤️

@MedBonnevie Great read, Martin! The moment I realized there's a stress:recovery balance, aka load management, I started making gains again. Also, dialing back on training when other things take priority and sticking to a minimal approach is key for age group athletes and amateurs.

@FitFounder Once a month? Well ... I hope cycling will compensate for this.
