Your heart rate is 10 beats higher than usual for the same power. I see this in training files every week and the forums will tell you to take a rest week or blame your HRM, but most of the time it's one of five fixable things that have nothing to do with fitness.
Dr Andrew Sellars has spent 35 years studying why cyclists blow up on hard efforts. His answer: it's not your legs, it's not your heart. It's your breathing. And the French study he references on this episode of the Roadman Cycling Podcast showed pro cyclists improving FTP by 6% over 48 weeks
with Dr Andrew Sellars
Most cyclists finish a hard ride, sit down, and call it done. The actual recovery hasn't started yet. On this episode of the Roadman Cycling podcast, we break down what Pogacar and the World Tour peloton do in the 60 minutes after the finish line, and why that window matters more than most training
Your legs feel fine but you can't hold the power. The breath gives out before the muscles do. Dr Andrew Sellars on the breathing limiter most amateurs don't know they have, and the protocol that fixes it.
Recovery isn't passive — it's the other half of training. The Pogacar first-hour routine, Dr Plews on HRV done properly, and why the same hard session at 50 needs more recovery than it did at 35.
There's a line between training hard and training stupid. Most riders don't know they've crossed it until they're sick, injured, or staring at a power curve that's been declining for six weeks. Here are the seven warning signs — and what to do when you spot them.
