15 – The Advice We All Got Wrong

Most cycling advice gets passed around so confidently
that nobody stops to ask if it's actually right.

In this episode, Mukund takes three of the most widely followed rules in cycling — stretching before a ride, the 90 RPM cadence target, and Zone 2 training — and asks a simple question: what does the evidence actually say?

Topics covered:

  • Why static stretching before a ride may be hurting your performance
  • The truth about the 90 RPM rule — and why your cadence might be different
  • How Zone 2 became a religion — and where the nuance got lost
  • What to do instead
