the most common pattern you see, it's very rare for someone to be sitting too high

unless they're in a time trial position normally.

You do see that so much encouraging.

But I would say my sort of analysis of it is that most people sit a little bit too low and too far back.

That Treflon Show, 232.

Hey, what's up, everybody, and welcome back to another episode of that Traathlon show,

the podcast presented by Scientific Traathlon.com.

I'm your host Michael, and on today's episode, I interview Phil Bird.

Phil is a world-renowned bike fitter and physiotherapist who has spent 12 years with British

cycling and five years with Team Sky.

And in this episode, we go deep into the topic of bike fitting, covering topics ranging from physiotherapy and injury prevention through power

production and aerodynamics. So this is a really good, really, really good introduction and

advanced course in bike fitting. I really

enjoyed talking to Phil. I hope that you will learn a lot and I do think that you will.

Before we get into the interview, big thanks to our sponsors, precision hydration that you can

find on precision hydration.com. Precision hydration have developed a free online sweat test that you've heard me talk about

before, and that sweat test consists of a simple quiz of 10 multi-choice answer questions,

and based on data from actual medical grade equipment that precision hydration uses for the real

advanced sweat testing the quiz results have been validated against that gold standard so that when

you go and take that quiz you actually will get a pretty good estimate for how much sodium you

actually lose in your sweat so it's a a great starting point for most about anybody.

And a few people might benefit from doing the actual advanced in-person sweat testing.
