In this episode, Coach D and Coach BFun give you the honest truth about losing weight...ready!? It's hard and it's not fun. But there are ways we can change our habits and low hanging fruit that when cut, can make a massive difference in your d
The typical avatar of an endurance athlete lends itself to having high expectations, and that is a dangerous thing. Most of the time, we put these expectations on ourselves, and they are like a weighted vest on race day. Expectations equal stre
Proper pre-race prep for premium (triathlon) performance. Say it 5x fast. It's time to nail your next goal race, but a lot hinges on what you do in the 24 hours before the gun goes off. Don't sabotage your next race with poor planning and sheer
If you've been around the block, you know it's happening. The larger possible reward, the larger the chance that people will cheat. It was happening before Collin Chartier was caught and chances are it won't be the last time there is a doping s
You decided to take on a beast of an event. The unknowns are greater than the certainties. The truth is, doing your first 100 mile ultra marathon is a lot more complex than just getting out there and jogging (and hiking) for hours on end. There
There are a million and one reasons why endurance athletes take a break from training and racing. Be it cycling, running, triathlon, or any other feat of endurance, it likely involved a decent amount of time, as well as a chunk of your emotiona
Mason Schofield didn't grow up with dreams of becoming a pro cyclist. He really didn't even play sports growing up. But when the pandemic hit and life was in flux, he found joy in getting out on a beater road bike. Soon he found himself working
To wax or not to wax, that is the question. Of all the trends in cycling right now, chain waxing seems to be the one we get asked about the most. So, we called on our local chain waxing guru (and engineer) Cole McDaniel to school us all on the
As cyclists, runners, and triathletes, one of the reasons we train is to stay healthy. But let's face it, this winter has sucked in terms of staying at full capacity. We've had athletes who have been sick 3 and 4 times in 3 months. It's the wor
In this episode, Coach D has a lot to get off his chest when it comes to bike fitting. As someone who has been fitting bikes professionally and studying human physiology and biomechanics for over a decade, he sees a lot of trends in the industr
If you are a triathlete or swimmer, you know The Magic5. Their catchy marketing and claims of custom fit unleaky goggles caught us the moment they hit the interwebs. It's no secret, we love their goggles. Being entrepreneurs ourselves, it was a
When doing Ironmans isn't enough, what do you do? Ask Francisco. This guy has been a joy to coach and has managed to strike a great balance between training for crazy challenges and still managing to have fun. There is a lot more to Francisco t
After the little altercation between Cory Williams and Michael Hernandez after the Salt Lake Criterium, we decided to pull Coach Jonny Brown in on the conversation considering he had a front row seat. JB has been pretty vocal about the lack of
Let's face it, getting hurt sucks. Anytime you are unable to do the activities you love, it can trigger a nasty game of mental ping pong. As a cyclist, runner, or triathlete, our brains tend to travel to worst case scenario territory. Something
Hand numbness is among the top 3 most common complaints we get from athletes, right behind (pun intended) 2 other numbnesses that are way less tolerable. Coach Dale has fit hundreds of bikes (over 600 as of May 2022) in the last 13 years and ha
A timely throwback for you endurance athletes this week. Why? Because it's hot AF outside! This week in the Memphis area it's 90 degrees and the feels like temp is over 100. Typical summer day right? The problem is it went from 70s with low hum
This week we have Clay Jones and Sara Michael from 901PT and we are talking about a huge pain in your...back. Back pain is one of the most common ailments among cyclists, runners, and triathletes. Yet most athletes have zero clue as to what is
If you are a cyclist, triathlete, or runner, you've likely suffered the dreaded bonk before. It's not fun. One second you are crushing it, and a minute later, the lights are out. It's no secret that high performance endurance athletics require
After weeks of Coach BFun stalking him via social media, we finally got a chance to sit down and chat with the fastest Funston on 2 wheels. Scott Funston (no relation) was a lot of fun to chat with and we got to talk a little about his break ou
The age old debate. Should I train with distance or with time? Through the lens of a time crunched athlete, we think this is a pretty open and shut case. But...there are some instances where the contrary may be more beneficial for specific athl
When we make the decision to take on something epic like a half or full ironman, or even our very first triathlon, or some nonsense like taking on a half or full ironman as our first triathlon, the next decision generally starts with "oh sh!^,
Fitness, Form, and Fatigue, oh my! With all the ways to measure performance in this day and age, are cyclists, runners, and triathletes focused way too much on achieving an arbitrary fitness number? Does a high fitness number equate to great pe
This gem is well worth bringing back for another round. If you are a cyclists and absolutely hate getting dropped on a group ride or in a race, give this one a listen. Don't forget to comment with your tips, like, share, rate, and review. Your
Well well well. Here we are crossing the century mark with our 101st episode. On this go round we talk a little about what we have in store moving forward, and then our main man Daniel Scruggs fires over random questions about the last several
Okay campers, rise, and shine, and don't forget your booties ‘cause it’s cold out there… it’s cold out there every day. Today we are throwing it back to an oldie but goodie for all of you cyclists, runners, and triathletes that loath getting up
