What is a good cycling pace?
  Back in the day, the benchmark for a decent club cyclist was always being able to ride 'evens' – averaging 20mph (32kph) on the club-run and breaking the hour for a 25-mile (40km) TT.   At a pro level, though, for example, Sam Laidlow’s record-breaking Kona ride in 2022 averaged 27.6mph (44.4kph). And the winner of 2023's fastest-ever Paris-Roubaix, Mathieu van...
How to switch intensities on the bike
  Elite, draft–legal bike legs can be brutal. Yes, high-aerobic threshold power is critical to be able to deal with the racing demands but there’s more to it than that.   Short laps on the bike generally mean lots of corners, so lots of decelerating and accelerating, while large packs make the effort more like an on/off light switch.   Often the hardest...
Single-sided power meters: what are they, how do they work and what are their benefits
  A single-sided power meter works by having stress gauges on one crank arm or pedal, transmitting this information to your head unit and then this data is simply doubled to produce an estimated figure of your overall power output in watts.   Single-sided power meters have made training and racing with power far more accessible and affordable. There are however plenty...
Are gut bacteria the secret to qualifying for Kona?
  This October, researchers from all over the world will be teaming up for a first-of-a-kind study on probiotics and the gut microbiome of triathletes at the Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii.   The highly competitive field combined with the gruelling conditions on the Pacific island of Hawaii will serve as the perfect venue for this project, which is being led...
How to overcome your fear of going fast on descents
  If you've had a bad fall on the bike recently and are struggling to regain confidence on descents then help is at hand.   You've probably ridden downhill thousands of times without trouble but it just takes one 'off' to smash your confidence and reduce the enjoyment of cycling outdoors.   So, whether the road surface was wet, gravelly or you were...
Benchmark your off-season fitness
  Once you’re into the winter mode it’s important to get regular information on how things are going performance-wise.   Rarely does this data contradict what your training diary and intuitive hunch would already suggest, but it’s still good practice to get a measure of how unfit you are, how much you’ve progressed or how on track you are. Data either proves...
What is TSS in cycling?
  Before drilling into what Training Stress Score (TSS) is and how it relates to cycling, there are a few other metrics to understand.   FTP (functional threshold power) was defined as the maximum power that you could hold for 60 minutes. However it’s better viewed as your sustainable power so, for an untrained cyclist, it could be what they could manage...
Can anyone take part in triathlons? What if I'm not very fit?
  Anyone who’s not done a triathlon always says to me 'gosh you must be really fit!' But to be honest when I first started triathlon I was far from it, but I just wanted to give it a go. It’s true that anyone can do a triathlon and there are shorter distance races which are perfect for your first race....
Interval training: what it is, how to do it and why you should do it
  Interval training workouts involve structured exercising at different intensities with recovery periods in between. High intensity is usually anaerobic exercise, while the recovery periods involve activity of lower intensity.   High-intensity interval training (HIIT) workouts exercise the cardiovascular system, which will then improve the athlete's aerobic capacity leading them to exercise for longer and/or more intense levels.   To be faster come...
How to develop a smoother, more efficient pedal stroke
  Pedalling technique is a big topic of debate among cycling coaches, with some advocating drill sessions, single-leg work and the use of pedalling analysis software. At the other end are those who say just get out, ride your bike and your pedal stroke will look after itself.   As with most things, the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle. If...
How to deal with heavy legs on the bike
  Can't get going on the bike leg post-swim? It's not unusual, and there are several factors and scenarios that could contribute to this frustrating situation mid-race.   Here are some considerations and tips to prevent and treat the feeling should it affect you.   Can the swim affect my bike leg performance?   If you've had a stressful swim – say you've been...
How to improve your cycling efficiency
  Cadence refers to the amount of times you complete a full pedal revolution each minute, and is something you will naturally settle on with time spent in the saddle.   Studies have shown that it’s an individual preference and also that different types of riding suit different cadence zones – time trialling is generally a slightly lower cadence; bunch racing a...
