Video Description

After months of chasing down five of the world’s top cycling coaches—the minds behind Grand Tour wins, World Championships, and Olympic medals—I discovered one shocking truth: most riders train far too hard on their “easy” days. In this episode, I reveal the Zone 2 training secrets shared by Dan Lorang, John Wakefield, Vasilis Anastopoulos, Dr. Christian Schrot, and Dr. Stephen Seiler. Learn why pro cyclists spend 80% of their time riding “embarrassingly easy” and how this counterintuitive approach can unlock your speed, endurance, and long-term progress. They give advice on time, duration and frequency.
