Welcome to the 12 days of bike fit.

Each day we will be bringing to practical tips, actionable advice and thoughtful reflections from some of the best bike fitters, coaches and physios from around the world.

This is it, the final day of this 12 days of bike fit podcast series. I hope you've enjoyed listening to it as much as I did putting it together.

It's been a real privilege to hear from so many bike fitters and coaches and I am grateful for them all in sharing their wisdom, thoughts and advice.

We're almost there!

Welcome to Day 11 which is going to try to convince you that being strong will make you a better cyclist.

We welcome back the two Chris' - both strength and conditioning coaches to give their tips on how and why you should be strength training if you're a committed cyclist or triathlete or just want to stay healthy!

And you'll find out it's just as important to get your mindset right as it is knowing what exercises you need to do to get strong.

Welcome to day 10 and I hope you've been enjoying this festive podcast series.

If you've only just joined the series, welcome, but make sure you go back and listen to all the other episodes as there have been great words of wisdom from each and every contributor and we really appreciate them taking the time to share their knowledge.

Today we have Bianca Broadbent who is a bike fitter and physio with some really important words for advice when working with junior riders or if you're a parent with an aspiring young racer.

Especially in our time of accelerated development where teams are scouting and recruiting younger and younger athletes in order to find a competitive edge... it's worth taking a step back and looking at the longer term picture.

Secondly, Kate from Hackney Bike Fit asks a question to those of you who commute by bike and those that don't see themselves as 'real' or 'serious' cyclists. It's amazing how our mindset can hold us back from finding the real path forward. Show Links:
