Cycling in Alignment with Colby Pearce

Slam that Stem? - Ep 197

In this PDWT pod, I attempt to provide a useful answer to a question submitted from my audience: 

“Let's say someone comes to you and gets a perfect bike fit for an endurance road bike and everything is dialed in great. let's say they also followed all your advice on stretches/exercises etc...and now feel like want to work on developing a more aero bike position.

What would the steps be in your opinion to get more aero for road riding? How do you know if you should extend reach or drop your stem? How do you know if you are ready for it?

I am certain my thoughts will answer all of your questions and make all your dreams come true. Vote for Summer!

Everything is not a Nail - Ep196

In this PDWT podcast I talk about the culture of cycling and how focused it is on one single thing: watts. 

If a rider only has a hammer in their tool box, everything looks like a nail…

An old saying that has some truth to it: “Train your weaknesses, race your strengths”

Thanks for listening, space monkeys.

You Don't Eat Grams of Carbohydrates - Ep195

In this walking episode I talk about all the reasons I don’t sign up for carbs carbs carbs and more sugar = better so more more sugar sugar = better better.

Didn’t your mom tell you not to eat all that sugar? 

She was right.

Health is an Ongoing Practice - Ep 194

Hello there space monkeys. This episode is Post Dinner Walk Thoughts, a bit of a shorter format than I would typically do. A distilled digestion of ideas on health, and a bit of perspective on how it fits into our life and our relationship to sports and cycling. 

If you have comments on this episode or my thoughts, fire the photons. As they say.

Blood Flow Restriction Training with Dr Mike DeBord - Ep193

In this episode I speak with Dr Mike DeBord about Blood Flow Restriction Training and how it is an extremely effective training method for endurance athletes. 
 
BFR simultaneously creates an environment of oxygen scarcity and elevated lactate levels, which stimulate mitochondria and also upregulate anabolic hormones. 
 
This training method is extremely time efficient, as you only wear the bands for a handful of minutes. 
 
I am sure you will enjoy this conversation with Dr Mike. If you are interested in purchasing BFR bands from B3 Sciences, please consider using my affiliate link which is found in the bio. I only recommend products which I use myself, and after two years of using the B3 bands, I think they are an excellent product. 

Thanks for listening.
