@BenjiNaesen Highly recommend Jake at Precise Performance. He’s who I refer all my patients to from my clinic in Guildford (previously Farnham) precise-performance.co.uk

@_julietelliott When I see patients who are struggling with squaring away rehab we often attach it to things they regularly do during the day. Might be making a cup of tea, brushing their teeth, etc etc. Don’t try to end game it, just aim for a little regularly & build volume from there.

Every time I google my specific knee pain and/or see my physio I'm told I need regular strengthening and stretching/rolling to deal with it. I know this sound so dumb but I never manage to commit to this. Anyone got any tips for making this a regular part of my routine?

@nedboulting @neverstraysfar Great listen as ever @nedboulting, & your feelings re Jumbo Visma/the press officer are totally justified. For me, it’s a reminder of a @benjaminryan-ism; ‘the standards you walk past are the standards you become’.

@alexdowsett Next step is a deep dive into the @jimseven back catalogue on YouTube to really hone in the obsession.

So this winter I took the plunge that I should’ve taken by rite as a pro cyclist and purchased a far too fancy coffee machine setup. Up to this point I’d been nespresso’ing, instant coffee’ing or thieving fancy coffee from others. Needless to say the machine doesn’t maketh the

Bike racing, but make it black & white Me at the Guildford TCR for @BritishConti

A challenging circuit at Guildford made for a tough race with the crowd creating a great atmosphere. A solid team performance, with Sophie again leading the charge with a very measured ride from the back, bridging to the front group to finish 11th.📸@ianwrightson @BritishConti

@nealrogers Roglic twice shown riding in the “puppy paws” position - once on the way into the first check & again on the descent after his mechanical. As far as I know that’s banned across all UCI races, no?

@BritishGas are one of the most frustrating companies/customer services to deal with. 6 days & hours of phone calls & I am still without gas & no closer to a resolution. Completely unacceptable. @BritishGasHelp

@GinaBally Great points 👏 The general migration away from clubs to small teams at a grass roots level has had a significant impact on race organising at that level which in turn is having a knock on effect higher up the chain.

I've a lot of discourse about the domestic scene. I want to add my two cents from a domestic scene super fan, a team manager, and someone with a sports business degree and business common sense perspective:

@_julietelliott The only structures that need special attention are hip flexors/quads (specifically rec fem) because of the amount of time spent in hip flexion. Can only say a joint is functional if we can access full range. @thereadystate is worth checking out for some ideas.

@_julietelliott With cyclists, I’m more concerned about getting them to move through range of movement regularly rather than increasing length. That may be something like yoga (a high flow version) or strength training. Athlete’s got to enjoy it to get the adherence we want.

I feel like half the people tell me I HAVE to stretch and the other half say it doesn’t actually do anything at all. Does anyone know for sure?
