In this episode of the Oxygen Addict Triathlon Podcast, Coach Rob provides ten tips for triathletes to increase their bike speed without the need to become a fitter, stronger rider. Ordered in terms of time / power savings, he covers a range of low / no cost adjustments like shaving legs and wearing higher-quality, tighter-fitting tri suits, to those that require a sbigger investment such as aerodynamic helmets and deep-section wheels. Additionally, Coach Rob discusses the value and power savings of optimising tyre choices and pressures, maintaining a clean drive chain, and considering aerodynamic hydration setups. All improvements are quantified in terms of watts saved to offer clear insights into potential time gains and help listeners prioritise the most valuable to them. * * * * * * * *SPONSORS* * * * * * * *Like what you heard in this show?

In this episode Coach Rob discusses the the how, why and when of assessing fitness progress made over the winter training block. He dives into the mechanics of measuring improvements via the Team Oxygenaddict winter testing protocols of the FTP test, CSS test and the sub-max run test.Rob also discusses the interpretation of those results - i.e. what they mean in real terms as you head into your spring / race prep training block, and how the emphasis of training and testing shifts focus with most of the winter training block behind you.He also touches on the necessity of continuing structured training into the race season, ways to measure endurance progress, and how to handle external factors that might affect test results.* * * * * * * *SPONSORS* * * * * * * *Like what you heard in this show?
