Episodes
  • TTL App, disc wheels on hilly courses, how to handle FTP plateau, and more!
    Sep 19 2024

    This week we did our best to piece together an episode in three different places. Eric and Paula were recording from Switzerland with small handheld mics, Nick was without electricity in LA, and our special guest, Jake Senitza was in Florida. Apologies if it isn't our greatest episode but we are very excited about launching the TTL App! This week, we talked about:

    • Swim pacing with or without an Aussie exit
    • Is a disc wheel still worth it on a hilly course
    • How to pass 3 hours on Zwift
    • How early to sign up for races
    • Should you be worried about plateauing FTP
    • Electronic shifting on mountain bikes
    • The morality of courtesy waving on runs and rides

One of the best triathlon podcasts I never miss an episode. One of the few examples of having both Pro and AG perspectives in one conversation.
