The high work load during my studies forced me to find a more flexible sport than team sports. The Munich scenery close to the alps offered the perfect playing ground for cycling, the Isar river banks provided great running tracks and nearby lakes would substitute the swimming pools.
The following aspects got me hooked:
- Data-Driven Performance Training
- Optimizing aerodynamics on the bike
- Versatile training plans (three sports in one)
- Optimized time management
- Experimenting with training methods
- Quantification of performance (VO2 max, time splits, Watt performance, … )
- Sophisticated nutrition plans
- Hard work leads to high rewards
