THROW AWAY THE BOX

I THINK WE'VE ALL HAD THE EXPERIENCE of being put in a box. Maybe we put ourselves there, maybe it was a coach, or a friend... ... who observed we were good at X. Usually it's backed up with our first win. But, what if we won... an XC race against terrible bike handlers?a sprint against the plodding TTers?a climb against track racers? ... was that worthy of confidence? Maybe. The only way to find out is so throw away the box,try something new or different,take a chance. It's a no-lose proposition. We might discover a hidden talent,Confirm what we knew all along,Or, pick up some new skills. For example, a long time ago I built up a single-speed MTB. Even though it was slower in almost every conceivable way, I actually became a better rider... smoother pedal stroke increased upper body strength ... totally worth it. So much so, I'm thinking about building another one up. --- 1659 hrs0 Circuit of RaceDay Ready Resistance Training10 minutes recovery 20 minutes reading + Journaling Podcast: https://www.strava.com/athletes/10248 https://www.instagram.com/pedalindustries https://twitter.com/pedalindustries
