Small Tweaks, Big Gains: MTB Training Insights & Coaching Myths with Dr. Liz Koch #34

I discuss the importance of personalized training for women in mountain biking with Dr. Liz Koch, Physiotherapist and Strength & Endurance Training Expert. We talk about the significance of understanding movement patterns, biomechanics, and some common misconceptions in coaching and training, address a tailored approach to strength training and skills development, particularly for women and riders aged 40+, and explore how small adjustments in technique can lead to significant improvements in performance. We also touch on the difference between being a skilled rider and an effective coach, advocating for a deeper understanding of biomechanics and movement in sports training and mountain bike instructor certifications and look at some possible causes as to WHY some coaches teach so superficially.  Join my Live-Online Skill Up Program, starting March 29th - an ALL-IN-ONE Program with Skills, Strength Training, Mobility, Mindset, Neuroathletics + Coordination Drills on your doorstep and in your living room to improve your ON TRAIL Skills, Confidence and Control: https://roxybike.podia.com/skill-up-2-0-6-weeks-mtb-skills-program  Video links mentioned in this episode: Why not to drop both heels: https://youtu.be/VgddegvDvzU&list=PLwfXYMc609PXOZxbdKKE9i0hFzk8hTip0   Why not to focus on ELBOWS OUT! https://youtu.be/C8hm9L0BOm4?si=sv1LdMC3BjGp8XO4&list=PLwfXYMc609PXOZxbdKKE9i0hFzk8hTip0 More Info about Dr. Liz Koch and Outdoor Women Strong: Liz's Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2kpgGpDSqdGfZ4zTsJsngC?si=2d23cf0e72eb4dcb Her Strength Training, Mobility and Endurance Membership: https://theridelife.com/ride-life-membership-1/ Liz's YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheRideLife
