The Roadman Cycling Podcast

In this episode, we unpack how Anthony lost 7kg in just 12 weeks — dropping from 86kg to 79kg — while eating more food than ever before. No calorie counting. No MyFitnessPal. No skipping meals or fasted training rides. And here’s the kicker: he didn’t lose power on the bike. In fact, he got faster. His energy increased, junk food cravings disappeared, and he never once felt like he was “on a diet.”The weight loss industry loves to shout “calories in vs calories out” and “ride more, eat less.” But that outdated advice is incomplete — and it could be making you heavier, slower, and more miserable on the bike.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠⁠⁠⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

Every time you throw a leg over a bike, you’re making art. Inspired by Rick Rubin’s The Creative Act, this episode reframes cycling as more than training plans, watts, or weekend miles — it’s a way of being in the world. Riding sharpens your senses, changes how you read roads, weather, and your own body, and turns ordinary landscapes into something vivid. Each spin creates something new: a route, a mood, a story that didn’t exist before you clipped in. The bike becomes a lens for thinking, processing, and finding clarity without noise or distraction. So next time you roll out, ride like an artist: present, open, and trusting the work.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠⁠⁠⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

In this episode, Anthony sits down with sports nutritionist and researcher Tim Podlogar to unpack one of the most misunderstood topics in cycling: finding your ideal cycling weight. We dive into power-to-weight ratio, body composition, fueling strategies, and why chasing a lower number on the scale can sometimes backfire.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠⁠⁠⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

Caffeine: legal, cheap, everywhere — and still one of the most effective performance tools cyclists have. In this episode, we go beyond “coffee is life” and break down why caffeine works, when it works best, and how to use it without sabotaging your pacing, stomach, or sleep. From endurance and repeatability to timing, dosage, and delivery methods, we look at how caffeine actually changes perceived effort — and why that can be both a weapon and a risk. Practical, evidence-based guidance for road racers, gravel riders, and serious leisure cyclists who want caffeine to help, not hurt.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠⁠⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

This episode is for every rider who’s ever been told to “just relax” — and felt their body do the exact opposite. We unpack why confidence on the bike isn’t a mindset you can switch on, but an outcome your nervous system earns through real evidence. From descending and cornering to the silent language of the bunch, you’ll learn why advice like “soft hands” fails when you don’t feel safe — and what actually works instead: progressive exposure, pattern-building through repetition, and riding in groups that prioritise predictability over chaos. Plus, practical drills to build precision, trust your bike’s stability, and turn nervous survival into calm, quiet confidence.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

In this episode, a pro bike fitter opens up on the #1 thing amateurs miss when it comes to bike fit. Joined by Daryl Fitzgerald, we dive into the small details that make a big difference to comfort, performance, and long-term riding enjoyment. From common assumptions riders make to subtle setup choices that often get overlooked, this conversation sheds light on why many cyclists struggle to feel truly dialled on the bike.

Climbing doesn’t usually fall apart because of talent or genetics. More often, it’s a few small, fixable mistakes quietly stealing speed every time the road tilts up.In this video, we break down five of the most common reasons riders struggle on climbs—even when they train consistently and feel “fit.” From how you pace efforts, to how you fuel, pedal, and apply your power, these factors add up fast on any meaningful gradient.If you’ve ever felt strong on the flats but watched wheels drift away uphill, this one’s for you. Stick around to the end—the last reason is the most misunderstood, and fixing it can change your climbing faster than you think.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

People keep saying gravel is dead — not because it disappeared, but because it changed. In this video, Anthony sits down with pro gravel racer Nathan Haas for an honest conversation about how gravel racing became faster, more professional, and more competitive than ever, and how that evolution may have stripped away some of what made it special in the first place. This isn’t about blame or nostalgia for the “good old days,” but about understanding what actually happened as gravel grew from a loose, community-driven scene into a serious racing discipline.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about to sign up to our FREE community!

Free Solo is the documentary about climber Alex Honnold attempting to climb El Capitan — a 3,000-foot rock wall — with no rope.I watched it last night and it did that thing great films do: you don’t just enjoy it, you start auditing your own life. Not dramatically — just noticing I was still tense afterwards, like my body was holding onto the consequences. Because it’s not really a film about climbing. It’s about consequence — and the choice to move forward when there’s no second chance.As cyclists, that lands close. We obsess over control in tiny details, yet accept familiar risks without thinking. This episode is about getting honest: separating performance risk from consequence risk, spotting the “uncertainty stack,” and making smarter decisions before luck runs out.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.roadmancycling.com/2026⁠⁠⁠⁠ to sign up for Not Done Yet.

How Do The Pros Actually Train – What EXACTLY is the Intensity, Frequency, Duration?  Getting your winter training right is the difference between flying it in the January and burning out by the time the season kicks off. In this episode, I’m joined by Daryl Fitzgerald from Science to Sport to strip training back to the three levers that matter, and show you what the best riders do behind the scenes: how they build base, where intensity really belreally belongs, why Zone 1 is a secret weapon, and how to train hard without breaking. Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

Riding faster on gravel isn’t about copying road training plans or just riding longer and harder — it’s about training smarter for the unique demands of the surface. In this episode, Rosa Klöser breaks down how she prepares to win the biggest gravel races in the world, from Unbound to the Rift, on courses that couldn’t be more different.We get deep into how she structures her training blocks, why VO₂ max and fatigue resistance matter more than you think, and how nutrition, pacing, and altitude play a bigger role than raw power. Stay to the end, where Rosa explains the mindset shift that helped her start winning — not just surviving — the hardest gravel races on the calendar.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

Gravel cycling is changing fast — and the era of fully professional teams has arrived. In this episode, Anthony sits down with European Champion and TRAKA winner Mads Würtz Schmidt, fresh from signing with the Specialized Gravel Racing Team, to unpack what this shift really means. Once seen as cycling’s most free-spirited discipline, gravel is now evolving into a highly competitive, professional sport. Mads lifts the curtain on the new realities of racing at the top level, from team structures and performance expectations to how the culture of gravel is being reshaped. This is a candid look at where gravel racing is headed — straight from one of the riders helping define its future.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

Before jumping into big goals for 2026, Anthony guides you through a structured reflection on 2025 using a framework inspired by Tony Robbins. This isn’t a motivational hype piece, but an honest audit of the year you’ve actually lived — your real wins, the costs you may have ignored, the patterns that kept repeating, and the moments where you were or weren’t honest with yourself. From there, you’ll step into two possible versions of your 2026 and create clarity around the path you want to take. This episode is designed to help you train with purpose, identity, and intention — not just motivation.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

In this episode, I sit down with metabolic expert Angelo Poli to break down why so many athletes and cyclists get stuck trying to lose the last few kilos despite doing “everything right.” We dive into metabolic adaptation, why eating less eventually stops working, and how your body actively slows weight loss to keep you alive. Angelo explains why calories aren’t linear, why crash dieting backfires, and how eating more at the right time can actually help you get leaner and perform better. If you’ve been stuck in a weight-loss plateau, struggling with rebound weight gain, or afraid that fueling properly will make you heavier, this conversation will completely change how you think about metabolism.Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.skool.com/roadman/about⁠ to sign up to our FREE community!

In this episode, I sit down with neuroscientist Dr. Tommy Wood to explore how brain health, focus, attention, and recovery directly affect cycling performance. We break down why most athletes are physically well-trained but mentally overworked, how constant stimulation and distraction lead to cognitive overtraining, and why your brain needs recovery just as much as your legs. We also discuss practical ways cyclists can train their brain, build focus, improve decision-making under fatigue, and protect attention in a world full of distractions. If you’re training hard but still feel mentally flat or inconsistent on the bike, this conversation might explain why.We’ve just started to build something really cool.
