Beyond Talent: The Daily Habits That Separate The Best From The Rest With Derval O'Rourke The Roadman Cycling podcast

41:05

When negative feedback shakes your confidence, it can be difficult to get back to feeling like yourself at work. In this episode, Anne and Frances help a struggling listener who has spent years toning herself down in the workplace after being told that she was too assertive — now, she feels that her modest approach is holding her back. Together, they use Anne and Frances’s “trust triangle” framework to explore how empathy, authenticity, and logic can help you rebuild confidence and trust with your colleagues, and share helpful confidence hacks for getting comfy with discomfort.

You’re Training Too Hard (And It’s Slowing You Down) With Jayco Alula Coach Dr. Christian Schrot 43:39

17 hours ago43:39

43:39

Every amateur cyclist falls into the same trap: chasing intensity instead of consistency. In this episode, I sit down with Christian Schrot, performance coach at Team Jayco AlUla, to explore one of endurance sport’s most surprising truths — riding easy is what actually makes you faster. We unpack the science behind the 80/20 polarized training model, why zone discipline matters, and how even elite pros struggle with holding back. From common misconceptions to the training habits that really work, this conversation is a must for any cyclist who’s ever asked, “Am I training hard enough?” Spoiler: if you’re doing it right, most of your rides should feel almost too easy.

Why Rapha Lost Its Soul (And What It Means for Cycling) 26:11

4 days ago26:11

26:11

In 2017, Rapha was the gold standard of cycling cool — premium kit, boutique clubhouses, and a cult-like following. Today? Stores are closing, prices are slashed, and the brand is losing millions. In this episode, we break down the meteoric rise and stunning fall of Rapha, from its poetic beginnings to its sale to the Walmart heirs. What went wrong? Was it discount culture, over-expansion, or simply forgetting what made the brand special in the first place? This is more than a story about cycling apparel — it’s a cautionary tale for any brand chasing scale. Whether you’re a Rapha loyalist, a skeptic, or just into brand strategy, this one’s a ride worth taking.

Alex Wild is back, the elite gravel racer is fresh off the biggest gravel race in the world, the 2025 Unbound 200 . This is one of the craziest races on the planet. We get into it: the strategy, the chaos, the power numbers. Stick around till the end where Alex’s gives us his thoughts on who the real losers were in this 2nd round of the life time GP. This is a rare opportunity to peek inside the race. Alex breaks down how the race actually unfolded and gives us insight that we couldn’t see from the online coverage — how the early break with Cameron Jones happened, the chase group dynamic, and the decisions that either made your day or cracked you completely. He’s brutally honest about what went right, what went sideways, and what he’d do differently.We also go deep on the big-picture stuff: gravel licenses, bike setup, feed zones, and whether the sport’s getting too serious or still keeping that wild edge.

World Tour Nutritionist - “We Got Weight Loss Wrong” 1:57:35

We got weight loss wrong - In this episode, we speak with the performance nutritionist behind top WorldTour teams like INEOS Grenadiers, EF Education, and Uno-X. He reveals why the traditional “lighter is faster” mindset is holding cyclists back. If you’ve been dieting for cycling performance, you might be sacrificing power, endurance, and recovery. This expert coach explains how fuelling correctly—not restricting—is the real key to riding stronger and faster. Whether you're racing, training, or just riding for fun, this insight could change how you eat and ride forever. Don’t miss what the Team INEOS coach reveals about why it's time to ditch outdated dieting strategies and focus on performance-first nutrition.

In this raw and revealing conversation, Kelly shares the dream that lit her fire at 14, the discipline forged during her time in the military, and the relentless setbacks she overcame on the road to Olympic glory in Athens. But this episode goes deeper than performance. Kelly opens up about the private battles she fought in silence — the mental health struggles, the fear of being outed, and the toll of living a hidden life in the public eye. We talk about the moment she knew she couldn’t live in secrecy anymore, the relief of coming out in 2022, and what life feels like now that she’s free to be herself.

Cycling and AI: How Artificial Intelligence is Changing the Way We Ride, Train, and Race 9:55

AI is quietly reshaping cycling—not through bikes or gear, but through data. In this episode, we dive into how artificial intelligence is transforming the way we train, recover, and race. From adaptive workouts that respond to your sleep and stress, to predictive tactics that could change race-day strategy forever, we explore where AI is already making an impact—and where it's headed next. But this isn’t about replacing coaches or instincts. It’s about using smarter tools to unlock deeper potential. As AI becomes more accessible, the real challenge isn’t technical—it’s personal.

Testosterone's Common Use In Masters Racing - Rider Support 29:08

4 weeks ago29:08

29:08

Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) has become one of the most divisive topics in Masters cycling. Is it a legitimate medical need—or a performance enhancer in disguise? In this episode, we break down what TRT is, when it’s medically justified, and why it’s rarely granted a Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE). We also explore the ethical grey areas of TRT in amateur racing, whether age should excuse its use, and how it fits (or doesn’t) within the spirit of fair competition. With voices on both sides weighing in, including medical perspective and rider experience, this is a conversation about health, performance, and where we draw the line in sport.

What if your training plan could adapt in real time—based on how you actually feel and perform each day? In this episode, Anthony sits down with the creator of a groundbreaking AI platform that’s quietly being adopted by WorldTour teams - VEKTA. Riders like Eddie Dunbar are calling it a “game changer,” helping eliminate guesswork and dial in race-ready form with precision. We break down how this tech works, what it means for everyday cyclists, and whether AI really can out-coach traditional methods. If you’re serious about performance—or just want to train smarter—this conversation is essential listening. The future of training isn’t coming. It’s already here.

Why More Riding Isn’t Making You Faster - Rider Support 29:42

5 weeks ago29:42

You doubled your training hours… but somehow got slower? This week, we unpack why more volume doesn’t always mean better performance — and how intensity control, fatigue, and poor structure can quietly derail your fitness. We also dig into whether the aero obsession is doing more harm than good for amateur riders, if shorter crank arms actually help endurance cyclists, and how to manage team dynamics during multi-day races. Plus: breaking the “bad luck” cycle after crashes, and what you need to know about hookless rims and tyre safety.
