DONUTS & BIKES: The Mountain Bike Coaching Podcast
How to race and why everyone should give it a go!
It's World Cup Season!
Racing is back and we wanted to use this opportunity to discuss why lining up at a start gate is about so much more than wanting to stand on a podium. In this episode we explore the myriad of unseen benefits of racings for riders as well as some basic tips for "how to race."
The show focuses on:
- Why people don't race and barriers to racing
- Racing culture
- Motivations for racing
- The importance of clarifying goals
- Focusing on process over results
- Competition: Moving from a win/lose mindset to effort/outcome
- Getting ready for racing -- tactics and equipment
- Fitness training...Or not!
- Technical Skills -- focus on the foundations
- Why jumping is good training for racing
- Race Day -- Identifying what we can and can't change
- Race Day -- tactics
- Race Day -- routine
- Homemade Donuts? Yes, please!
