Strength training benefits; new Cervelo S5 full build video; Tim Don's "The Man in the Halo"

Hi all,

Merry Christmas Eve!

Training Thoughts and Updates-

- Have you been thinking about doing some strength training this off-season? Now's the time to get started, and more research shows strength training is a reliable way to avoid injuries.

- If you're interested in learning more about strength training, this podcast between Tim Ferris and strength and conditioning coach Ryan Flaherty is a must.

Shop Ops-

Here is our shop schedule for the next two weeks:

Mon: 10am-2pm

Gear that Caught Our Attention-

The indoor trainer category has been the big seller for us this holiday season. Between convenience, safety, and quality apps like Zwift and Trainer Road it's easy to see the appeal to train indoors and at home.

Popular Social Post-

It's been a while since we've published a bike build video, but when Cervelo released their completely redesigned S5 aero road bike, we knew it was time to dust off the cameras and get to work.

Quote that Struck a Chord-

"Sacrifice does not mean giving up something for nothing; it means giving up one thing for something else we believe is worth more." -Brett McKay

If You Have a Few Moments to Spare-

Professional triathlete and former Ironman world record holder Tim Don's journey back to health after a near fatal training accident is beyond inspiring. Here is the latest installment of "The Man With The Halo" following Tim's return to Ironman Hawaii.

Have a great week!
