Sebastian Weber is a sports scientist and highly successful coach, in both professional sports (having worked with athletes like Peter Sagan, Tony Martin, and André Greipel) and with age-group endurance athletes. He is also the co-founder of the physiological performance software INSCYD. In this episode we discuss cycling technique, quality of movement, and holding a good (aerodynamic) position, and how the LEOMO Type-R device can be used to improve these important but easily forgotten aspects of cycling and triathlon cycling.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:
-The importance of quality of movement in cycling, and how it has become somewhat forgotten in a world obsessed with power.
-The LEOMO Type-R device, and how it can measure quality of movement in a large variety of ways to help assess and inform training.
-Examples of common issues regarding quality of movement and how to correct them
-How to use the LEOMO Type-R to improve aerodynamics
-How much should triathletes and time trialists train in the TT-position
-Is the LEOMO Type-R a good investment for age-group triathletes?
