This Week on The Consummate Athlete…

🥵 Struggling to catch your breath on a ride? Your heart rate strap, bra, jersey, or bibs could be to blame. Read: Struggling with Heart Rate Monitors or Breathing on the Bike? Check Your Sports Bra (Don’t trust us? Watch at 1:08 in the replay of this weekend’s XCO race when Jolanda Neff, while sitting in 5th place, rips off her heart rate strap in the feed zone. It’s epic.)

🎧 Even if you’re listening to our podcast… Should you be Wearing Headphones While Training? We discuss the pros and cons of listening to headphones on rides and runs and when the answer is absolutely not.

🧳 Packing for a race weekend or adventure? The Small Gear That Makes a Big Difference on Adventures + Long Races

🏎 We had GT racer Erika Hoffman on the podcast to talk all things car racing and how it surprisingly is very similar to bike racing. Even if you’re not a F1 fan, this is well worth the listen. And share it with young girls in your life, especially if they love a non-traditional sport and are feeling like they’ll never get their chance. 👉 GT-Cup Car Racing with Erika Hoffman
