August 28, 2025

Life doesn’t always follow your training plan, and that’s okay. In this episode, I’ll teach you how to pivot your strength and cycling workouts when work, family, or stress throw curveballs. You’ll learn my “3 R Framework” (Reduce, Replace, Reschedule) so you can stay consistent, avoid burnout, and actually build resilience as a busy professional who loves to ride.

We’ll cover:

  • Why adaptable training beats rigid plans for long-term success
  • How to pivot when you’re short on time, energy, or equipment
  • The mindset shift that separates thriving athletes from frustrated ones
  • Actionable steps to create your own adaptable training toolkit

Whether you’re balancing a demanding career or just navigating life’s chaos, this episode will help you train smarter, stay consistent, and feel empowered.
