Can Mountain Biking & Skills Training Help with Burnout? The Science + Mistakes to Avoid #38
Manage episode 487408571 series 3590876
Can mountain biking help you recover from burnout - or could it secretly be making overwhelm and exhaustion worse? In this episode, we touch on the neuroscience of burnout and boreout, proven ways to rebuild skills, inner stability, and joy on the bike and how burnout impacts your nervous system, decision-making, and overall well-being. As a full-time mountain bike coach and certified mental trainer, I’ve worked with hundreds of riders—some of whom came to me during or after burnout.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
What burnout and boreout really are — and how they show up in your body and brain
Why decision fatigue can lead to exhaustion and poor choices
How mountain biking and what type of skills training can support recovery
The ways riding can actually worsen burnout
What warning signs to look out for if your rides are doing more harm than good
A type of coaching that helps riders rebuild confidence, control, and calm - which can reduce burnout symptoms
If you’ve ever wondered:
“Why do I feel worse after riding?”
“Is mountain biking helping my mental health—or draining it?”
“How do I get back in control when life and riding feel overwhelming?”
… then this episode is for you.
