For this week’s potluck we discuss a host of questions, from getting sick during a target race, training in cold weather, and approaching the off season.
We bust myths about exercising in the heat and in cold weather. We are joined by Dr. Stephen Cheung, one of the world’s preeminent environmental physiologists.
We explore the physiological effects of training in the cold, from muscle damage to the increased caloric demands and how to stay warm.
We dig into the physiology behind pedaling in cold weather and offer up a few tips and tricks for dressing properly. Internationally renowned trainer Andy Pruitt and former pro Ted King add their own insights on the subject.
