Episode Details

Self-coaching gives you freedom, but it also makes it remarkably easy to reinforce your own biases.

Coach Adam Pulford breaks down five mistakes he repeatedly sees in self-coached cyclists, from avoiding field testing and inflating FTP to under-recovering, failing to plan long-term, and chasing equipment gains before training gains.

HOST
