The Roadman Cycling Podcast

In this episode, we unpack how Anthony lost 7kg in just 12 weeks — dropping from 86kg to 79kg — while eating more food than ever before. No calorie counting. No MyFitnessPal. No skipping meals or fasted training rides. And here’s the kicker: he didn’t lose power on the bike. In fact, he got faster. His energy increased, junk food cravings disappeared, and he never once felt like he was “on a diet.”
The weight loss industry loves to shout “calories in vs calories out” and “ride more, eat less.” But that outdated advice is incomplete — and it could be making you heavier, slower, and more miserable on the bike.

Every time you throw a leg over a bike, you’re making art. Inspired by Rick Rubin’s The Creative Act, this episode reframes cycling as more than training plans, watts, or weekend miles — it’s a way of being in the world. Riding sharpens your senses, changes how you read roads, weather, and your own body, and turns ordinary landscapes into something vivid. Each spin creates something new: a route, a mood, a story that didn’t exist before you clipped in. The bike becomes a lens for thinking, processing, and finding clarity without noise or distraction. So next time you roll out, ride like an artist: present, open, and trusting the work.

In this episode, Anthony sits down with sports nutritionist and researcher Tim Podlogar to unpack one of the most misunderstood topics in cycling: finding your ideal cycling weight. We dive into power-to-weight ratio, body composition, fueling strategies, and why chasing a lower number on the scale can sometimes backfire.

Caffeine: legal, cheap, everywhere — and still one of the most effective performance tools cyclists have. In this episode, we go beyond “coffee is life” and break down why caffeine works, when it works best, and how to use it without sabotaging your pacing, stomach, or sleep. From endurance and repeatability to timing, dosage, and delivery methods, we look at how caffeine actually changes perceived effort — and why that can be both a weapon and a risk.
Practical, evidence-based guidance for road racers, gravel riders, and serious leisure cyclists who want caffeine to help, not hurt.
