Fine-Tuning Performance: Beth’s Swim, Bike & Physio Insights for Ironman Austria

Simon Ward, The High Performance Human Triathlon Podcast

Beth is back on the show as we check in on her Ironman Austria preparation!

If you’ve been following along, you’ll remember that Beth had upcoming visits with Louisa (the physio), Ray Gibbs (swim coach), and Phil Burt (bike fitter). (If you missed those discussions, check out the links in the show notes!)

Now that she’s completed all three sessions, we sit down to discuss her experiences and how each one is shaping her training and racing.

Key topics in this episode:

• Beth’s anxiety ahead of her swim technique assessment
• Why Ray asked if she’d ever learned to play a musical instrument
• The importance of getting a bike fit before investing in a new bike
• Beth’s newfound title as the macro absorber—and why she’s essentially been riding with the brakes on until now
• The surprising connections between her physio visit, swim assessment, and bike fit

There’s a lot to unpack in this episode, and we hope you're enjoying these conversations as much as we are! Beth and I are having a great time recording them, and we’re both learning a lot along the way. Hopefully, you’ll pick up something new too!
