#224 - Workouts As Links In A Chain

Published: Dec. 13, 2018, 4:59 p.m.

Are you training with a purpose or winging it? Today, we look at how a workout can and should mesh with what's coming next. We also explain the importance of a 72 hour window and why most athletes rarely think about it. And, is your mind lying to you? How memories and false believes can push you too hard, or slow you down. The best way to get faster on the bike.
