We discuss:
🚵 What it takes to win at world class cycling
🧑🤝🧑 Cycling as an ‘indivudual-team’ sport
❓ Staying humble – using scientific research to inform training practices, while learning from world class athletes whose training might ‘disagree’ with the science.
🌳 The wider opportunities to integrate cycling research and practice at all levels into public health policy, sustainability, active transport, net zero, and elite performance.
🧪 How we are integrating campus-wide research in sport science, engineering, sports technology and data science to build our Lightning Cycling elite womens team and Lboro Cycling Academy.
