103: Neilson Powless: Behind the Scenes of Racing and Training like a Pro

Welcome to another episode of the Dialed Health Podcast, which also happens to be a very special conversation I had with EF Racing's very own Neilson Powless. If you don't know Neilson, in my opinion he is one of our best cyclist in the world, and it was so awesome having the opportunity to ask him anything I wanted. He gave me a pro-perspective on both racing and training, where he taught me things I wasn’t even aware of! He dives deep into his perspective on nutrition while training, behind the scenes of the typical race experience, a recap of both Tour de France and the World Championships, his personal off-bike training routine, and so much more! Plus, we have an awesome round of rapid fire questions he answers at the end, including is doping still happening in the Peloton or is it a thing of the distant past? How does his body weight fluctuate throughout the season? A non-biking question: How is your chess game? Who would you ride a tandem bike with? Neilson burst onto the United States road racing scene as a 19-year-old and found instant success, finishing ninth overall at the 2016 Amgen Tour of California and winning a stage at the Tour de l’Avenir. Those results shot him to the WorldTour where his adaptability accelerated his learning curve. The 23-year-old spent his rookie seasons (2018-2019) racing for Lotto-Jumbo, joining EF Education-NIPPO in 2020 where he continued to impress with his breakaway performances at the Tour de France.
