Join Coach Adam Pulford and Dr. Alan McCubbin, a sports dietitian from Monash University, to unpack the complexities of hydration, particularly for those balancing tight schedules. We discuss the essential strategies for pre-exercise hydration, managing fluid loss during workouts, and effective rehydration post-exercise. We also tackle the debate on whether to drink based on thirst or follow a pre-set plan and learn how to create a comprehensive sweat rate profile for varying conditions.
Hydration needs for time-crunched vs. time-rich athletesWhat does 'optimal hydration' even mean?The problem with 'overdrinking'Practical methods of hydration assessmentDrink to thirst or follow a hydration plan?Putting sweat rate testing data into practice The truth about "losing 2% of bodyweight due to dehydration"How much fluid should you replace during exercise?

In Episode 195, we answer a listener question about using power, heart rate, rate of perceived exertion and the talk test to gauge if you're hitting your Zone 2 or creeping out of it. CTS Coach and physiologist Renee Eastman talks with Host Adam Pulford about which metrics to prioritize during specific training rides. They also discuss aerobic decoupling and the ways that changes in relationship between power and heart rate can indicate changes in aerobic fitness and durability.

8-Time US National Champion and CTS Coach John Croom is the anaerobic king. His power numbers and FRC (functional reserve capacity) were phenomenal at the height of his career. In this episode of "The Time-Crunched Cyclist Podcast", he reveals the techniques and workouts he uses to help athletes unlock the power of anaerobic capacity for race-winning performance. And anaerobic capacity is not just for racers... AC is the power all cyclists rely on for sharp accelerations in a group ride, to charge up a hill, or sprint against your buddies.

Guest: John Croom
John Croom started his athletic career as a 305-pound football player turned wrestler before finding track cycling. Even at 200-215 pounds, he was frequently told he was too large to be competitive as a cyclist, but he persevered and won 8 USA Cycling National Championships on the velodrome! Shortly after realizing he would not qualify for Team USA for the 2024 Olympics, he seized an opportunity to join the American Magic professional sailing team as they prepare to compete for the 37th America's Cup. John continues to work as a CTS Coach.Host
