Today I'm reminded of a classic post on Cross Twitter: "Who is your least favorite cyclocross racer and why is it Eli Iserbyt?"

If you are strength coach and you made someone so sore that it gets in the way of their skills training…. You absolutely messed up. If think that’s soft, I think you don’t understand the purpose of the weight room in terms of training athletes

Should be compared with studies that suggest a short life for those who sleep poorly or work the graveyard shift
What's the best time of day to exercise for reducing disease risk? This study with obese participants suggests the evening (6pm-12am). Cool example of what's possible to learn from wearables... data from ~30,000 people over ~ 8 years👇

This is a quality tweet
I’m not going to say the tt helmets are ugly. I’m just saying it’s a good moment to stop cycling.

TV show idea: Dukes of Hazzard, but woke. Every episode is smuggling immigrants across the border, getting pregnant or trans people across state lines to seek healthcare. But they have to jump a creek or two to do it. Pride Flag on the roof of a ‘97 Subaru Outback.

Just to be clear... the bigger your beard, the more ironman distance triathlons you can do in a row. Abe Lincoln could've easily torn off 250 days in a row of 140.6mi #Triathlons. @Conway_Sean @IronCowboyJames next up #JonasDeichmann

Best shot of 2024 in world cycling and even though it's February I genuinely don't think it will be beaten. @eurosport @thealulatour

As the world anticipates the #Paris2024 Olympics, let's shine a spotlight on the need for more female coaches in high-performance sports. Change starts with awareness! 👩🏫🌐 #CoachingEquality

That can't be scripted. Better phrasing might have been something like.... "I think there's a minimal need for this to be a priority of ours...". Or, "we're ready to step back and hand all coaching over to AI"

TRUTH!!
Trust me on this one: Once you switch to shoes with a wide toe box you’ll never go back. (These are from @topoathletic) Unimaginable damage has been inflicted on society by narrow shoes. A healthy back (and knees and hips) starts with the feet.

USA #Cycling fans. Digging into the Max with B/R add on after @GcnRacing closes: cheapest Max is $9.99/mo that's with adds ($15.99 = no adds). Cancel at any time. Then another $9.99 for B/R add on -BUT- that's comped 'til Feb 29, 2024. Also, no replays, you gotta watch it live
