One of my favorite parts of my job is answering questions from riders around the world. Through my blog and Facebook Fanpage I get the chance to help a lot of riders enjoy riding even more.

Today I posted a new episode of the MTB Strength Coach podcast, diving into some of those questions even more. In it I tackle 4 new questions including…

• How to decrease pedal bob when standing to climb on a full suspension bike.
• What to expect from your first mountain bike race.
• Why some very fast riders, including some XC pros, have such bad posture.
• Why you’ll get better results from your endurance training if you add in strength training as well.

Hope you’ve got some fun plans for this weekend, I’m going to hang out with my daughter later today and go to the indoor climbing gym – I haven’t been climbing in years so it should be pretty fun, hopefully I can use my arms tomorrow!
