Consummate Athlete Podcast

Today we have an interview with Phil Cavell, the founder and CEO of cyclefit a centre in the U.K. devoted to modern bike-fitting. We discuss his book 'The Midlife Cyclist' and we go deep on a few bike-fitting concepts including foot-beds and feet! We also spend lots of time on the challenges that middle age athletes face including muscle loss, heart conditions, pain, soreness and the downsides of indoor training.

This episode is supported by 'The Strong Girl' The new book from Molly Hurford
