So what?” (your winter wake-up call)

Aug 05, 2025 7:31 am

Hey


The hardest part about getting leaner and stronger on the bike?


It’s not the training.


It’s not the nutrition.


It’s getting out of your own head.


You know what I’m talking about…


That voice that says:


👉 “I always fall off in winter.”

👉 “I don’t have time to ride properly anymore.”

👉 “I’ve gained too much weight — it’s pointless now.”

👉 “I’m too old to make big gains.”

👉 “I’ll start once work calms down… or after the holidays… or in January…”


Sound familiar?


Yeah, I’ve heard it all before. And I’ve said most of it myself.


Here’s what I tell that voice now:

“So what?”



Let me show you how it works:


“I always gain weight in winter…”

So what?

Do you want to finally change that?


“I don’t have 10 hours a week to train.”

So what?

Most of my clients don’t either. That’s why Cycle Lean is built around smart structure, not more miles.


“I’ve never followed a proper plan before.”

So what?

Isn’t now the perfect time to start?


“I’m not sure I’ll stick to it.”

So what?

That’s why I coach you through it and give you everything you need to make it doable.


“I’ve already let myself go a bit this year.”

So what?

You can absolutely turn it around in 8 weeks — I've seen it happen over and over again.


(Martin joined our 6-week Cycle Lean Project at the start of the year, and lost 5 pounds in just 6 weeks)


At some point, you’ve got to decide:


👉 Are you going to coast through another winter and start from scratch next spring?

…or…

👉 Are you finally going to show yourself what you’re capable of when you have the right plan and the right support?


If it’s the second one — I’ve got you.
