Why More Riding Isn’t Making You Faster - Rider Support

Why More Riding Isn’t Making You Faster - Rider Support

You doubled your training hours… but somehow got slower? This week, we unpack why more volume doesn’t always mean better performance — and how intensity control, fatigue, and poor structure can quietly derail your fitness.

We also dig into whether the aero obsession is doing more harm than good for amateur riders, if shorter crank arms actually help endurance cyclists, and how to manage team dynamics during multi-day races. Plus: breaking the “bad luck” cycle after crashes, and what you need to know about hookless rims and tyre safety.
