Cycling in Alignment with Colby Pearce

Vitality and Generative Capacity - Ep185 This podcast is a blend of walking thoughts, followed by three readings which are appended to support the experience and concepts I talk about. It is based on the experience I had of loosing power at home for almost 5 days just before Christmas this year.  The first reading is from Mike Salemi. You can find him on his site Mike Salemi dot IO. He talks about five nutrients that all men need.  The second is from Evan Peikon, who has a Substack titled On Human Performance. He discusses the limitations of modern wearable devices and what they can and cannot tell us, making the case that wearable companies are effectively writing checks they cannot always cash when they draw multiple conclusions from a single device.  The third is from Michael Holt, who discusses how modern man is most often depleted, and how this leads to an erosion of his abilities to be generative. This state does not only impact his ability to perform at the highest level, it negatively impacts everyone in his life.   Links: Mike Salemi ►► https://mikesalemi.io Evan Peikon ►► https://onhumanperformance.substack.com Michael Holt ►► https://savageandsaint.com

Miscellaneous Questions - Part 2 - Ep184 The completion of a list of questions sent by one of my clients. This is my best attempt to provide answers that are helpful individually and collectively.  

Miscellaneous Questions - Ep183 In this walking podcast, I take the opportunity to answer several questions submitted by one of my athletes. The list is pretty solid so I figured I would offer some answers and hopefully more than one person will be helped in this process.  The topics are varied in scope but all offer plenty of opportunities for thoughtful responses, which I have done my best to produce.

Power is not a Goal with Nathan Haas - Ep182 In this episode I recorded a walking podcast with Nathan Haas, in Girona. We discuss Nathan’s coaching philosophy and talk about how power is not a goal of training. This statement flies in the face of just about every conventional paradigm of cycling.  If you are wondering what the hell we are talking about, give it a listen.  Have thoughts to share? Hit me or Nathan on the 'gram.  Links: Nathan's Instagram ►► https://www.instagram.com/nathanpeterhaas/    

Obstinately Intolerant - Ep181 In this walking podcast, I make the case that cyclists should be completely, totally and unequivocally intolerant of saddle discomfort.  It’s your genitals, people. Have higher standards.  Now is the off season. It’s time to find a better saddle.
