HOLY CRAP: SERGE PAUWELS!!!!!!!!! - a podcast by EVOQ.BIKE

Favorite Intervals, One Hour Tests, Lifting, Heat Adaptation, SO Much More!



Huge thanks to Serge Pauwels for coming on!!!! Belgian Phenom!!!



Part 2 will drop later this week!



The team that had the most magic for Serge. This surprised me! So cool.



The different cultures of different teams. Widen your horizons in cycling. See more, then Learn More.



The big open ended question: what are some of the most important aspects of your training. The basics!



Training, Nutrition, Rest.



Being race ready but also being able to absorb the racing during the season. You can’t come out 100% ripping; you need to balance and flow at 90% so you can soak up the race stimulus.



Do you want to crush them now, or later at the biggest race?



Sometimes a coach is there to tell you WHEN NOT TO RIDE.



The more endurance riding, the better.



How to use tempo training in a progressive overload form to increase your performance over time.



4 x 8 minute intervals.



Tempo burst sessions!



Never did many anaerobic sessions; got the really hard efforts in races.



The evolution of cross training and gym work over Serge’s career.



Plateaus with lifting.



Race weight…70kg and 65kg. When do you lose some muscle and how do you find that balance?



ONE HOUR TEST on the canal roads!



Adaptations as Serge moved through training.



Small thing that has a big impact in training: Heat adaptation over altitude.
