Show Notes
We sat down with Nic Walser to talk about his journey to become a coach to some of the world's fastest mountain bike racers. After working towards a professional downhill racing career himself, Nic started coaching friends during his sport science studies as a hobby that allowed him to combine his own passion for bikes and racing with the insights from the text books and the lab. It was really interesting to hear how he puts his own education and experience into practice, not only in his day job in a sports clinic, but also as a coach dedicated to the gravity disciplines in mountain biking, helping athletes achieve their goals and dreams. Of course, we do get to hear about some of the highlights along the way so far, but also insights into the key differences between elite racers and everyday athletes, the challenges of enduro racing, or what it really takes to succeed on the gravity circuit.
