162 🎄 When Are You a 'Real' Cyclist & the Dangers of Doing it Too Young (12 Days Of Bike Fit)

Welcome to  the 12 days of bike fit.Each day we will be bringing to practical tips, actionable advice and thoughtful reflections from some of the best bike fitters, coaches and physios from around the world. Welcome to day 10 and I hope you've been enjoying this festive podcast series.If you've only just joined the series, welcome, but make sure you go back and listen to all the other episodes as there have been great words of wisdom from each and every contributor and we really appreciate them taking the time to share their knowledge.Today we have Bianca Broadbent who is a bike fitter and physio with some really important words for advice when working with junior riders or if you're a parent with an aspiring young racer.Especially in our time of accelerated development where teams are scouting and recruiting younger and younger athletes in order to find a competitive edge... it's worth taking a step back and looking at the longer term picture.Secondly, Kate from Hackney Bike Fit asks a question to those of you who commute by bike and those that don't see themselves as 'real' or 'serious' cyclists. It's amazing how our mindset can hold us back from finding the real path forward. Show Links:- Research Paper: Sports Specialization in Young Athletes- Youth Sport Specialization: Current Concepts and Clinical Guides- Ep 78: The Golden Ticket To Becoming a Stronger Cyclist - Bone Health, RED-S & Energy Traps With Physio Bike Fitter Nicole Oh- Ep 50: Zen & The Art Of Commuting By Bike- A commute specific bike fit>>>If you're still looking a meaningful Christmas gift 🎁 for that cyclist in your life, Why not gift them something you KNOW will transform their ride...Why not gift them a Foundation bike fit?
