They break down what changes performance, what mostly changes feel, and where the research and real-world experience line up. Key topics In this episode: cadence does not directly make you faster at the same power output. Watts matter more than RPM alone.Dylan argues that the most efficient cadence is usually your preferred, most comfortable cadence, not a forced target.The group discusses why low cadence can feel grindy on climbs and why too much cadence manipulation often adds more fatigue than benefit.Kaitlyn and Adam note that bike fit, saddle height, core stability, and position can all contribute to bouncing in the saddle at higher cadence.The conversation shifts to durability training and how to place hard sessions with intervals before and after endurance riding.Dylan and Kaitlyn both say durability workouts are taxing enough that they should not be done year-round as a weekly default.Kaitlyn explains her coaching approach of building one energy system at a time, then adding a durability session at the end of each block.Dylan shares that he has progressed from basic endurance-between-intervals sessions to longer tempo blocks between interval sets to better simulate race fatigue.The final section covers bicarbonate use for sprint triathlon and short running events, with agreement that it is worth testing for hard, high-intensity efforts.The hosts compare products and methods, including delayed-release capsules, flavored systems, and the importance of trialing bicarb in training before race day.
