Only riding when work leaves you the time?

20/10/2026

Heavier now than you’ve ever been?

One rider in his 50s, a senior director and former sportsman, put it plainly to me. He said he was heavier than he had ever been. Still training. Still riding. Just carrying more than he ever had.

That’s more common than people admit. A career that took over. Years of travel, hotel meals, late dinners after late meetings. None of it dramatic on its own. All of it adding up quietly, year after year, while the riding stayed exactly the same.

And it shows on the bike. As a rough guide, every extra kilo costs somewhere around 5 to 6 watts on a climb. So a rider carrying more than he used to isn’t unfit, he’s just doing far more work for the same effort, every single time the road tips up.

Many riders in their 50s and 60s tell me the same thing. Still riding hard. Still putting in the hours. Yet the scales say something they don’t recognise.

It’s not just the climbing either. It’s the tiredness that sits there after a full night’s sleep. It’s the knees and back carrying load they were never built for, all day, not just on rides.

But here’s the thing nobody says out loud. Being heavier now than you’ve ever been isn’t a verdict on where you’re headed. It’s simply where you’re starting from today.

Drop it properly, without crash diets, without losing the strength and fitness you’ve built over years of training, and the climbing changes fast.

The number on the scale isn’t your story. It’s just your starting point.

Too busy for long midweek rides after a ten hour day?

20/10/2026

Fine on the flat but blowing out the back within minutes of every climb.

You sit in comfortably. Chatting away. Legs barely working while the group ticks along.

Then the first proper climb arrives.

Two minutes in and you’re off the back. Not struggling. Gone. The same riders who couldn’t get away from you on the flat are now fifty metres up the road and pulling further clear with every pedal stroke.

One rider told me exactly this. Months of flat local roads, feeling strong, feeling fit, but no idea how far he’d actually get up a big climb, because he’d never really been tested on one. Then he was, and he blew out the back within minutes.

Here’s why it happens.

Flat roads are forgiving. The group shelters you, the pace is steady, and any extra weight you’re carrying just goes along for the ride. It never gets asked a question.

A climb asks the question straight away.

No shelter. No steady rhythm to hide in. Just your power against gravity, and against every kilo you’re lifting up that hill. Flat miles can make you feel strong for years without ever revealing the truth.

For riders in their 50s and 60s especially, this is the trap. The local loop feels fine, so nothing changes, until the road tilts and the gap opens in minutes rather than miles.

More flat riding won’t fix this. It can’t. The fix is dropping the weight that’s being carried up every climb, properly and without crash dieting, so the fitness you already have finally shows up on the gradient.

Because the strength was never in question.

It’s what you’re asking it to lift that’s been holding you back.

The biggest willpower myth holding back cyclists in their late 50s and 60s?

That they simply don’t have enough of it.

They do.

What’s missing isn’t willpower. It’s structure.

One rider in his late 50s told me exactly this on a call. He has a demanding senior job, makes tough calls all day long, and when I asked why the weight kept creeping back on, he said, I’d put it down to willpower, if I’m really honest.

But that’s not what I see.

I speak to directors and senior leaders every week who have more discipline than almost anyone around them. They run tight schedules. They hold their teams accountable. They don’t lack drive.

Yet the same 20 or 25 pounds keeps returning. The same pattern repeats every fitness block. Strong through spring, gone by autumn.

That’s not a character problem. It’s a structure problem.

Willpower is a finite resource. It gets spent on the business, the team, the decisions nobody else will make. By the time riders like this get to their own training and their own plate, there’s nothing left to draw on.

Here’s what changes when the right structure goes in.

Riders over 55 stop relying on motivation to get through the week. Training happens because it’s planned, not because they felt like it on the day. Food is decided in advance, not negotiated with themselves after a long day at work.

The power goes up. The weight comes down. And it stops depending on how much willpower they woke up with.

Willpower runs out.

Structure doesn’t.

Build the structure once, and you stop needing the willpower at all.

Losing weight but getting weaker on the bike?

19/10/2026

Started tracking food and got a shock?

You are not alone.

Most riders in their 50s and 60s who start honestly tracking what they eat have the same reaction in the first week. Not disappointment. Genuine shock.

The bowl of granola that looked sensible turns out to be closer to a small meal on its own. The „healthy“ flapjack at the coffee stop, the olive oil generously used at dinner, the couple of handfuls of nuts eaten straight from the bag while standing at the counter. None of it felt like much in the moment.

One rider told me, you do not realise how much stuff is in things, when I tracked it I am like, freaking hell.

That reaction is the whole point.

Here is what is actually going on. Guessing portions has always felt harmless because nothing about a handful of nuts or a splash of oil feels dramatic. But small guesses stack up meal after meal, week after week, and the body keeps an honest score even when we do not.

This was never about willpower. Willpower was never the issue. The issue was working from an estimate that was quietly wrong, day after day, for years.

So the fix is not another diet or another list of banned foods.

It is simply seeing, clearly and honestly, what is actually going in. Once that becomes visible, the decisions get easier. Portions adjust without a fight. The drinks that were adding up unnoticed get noticed. The extra handfuls stop being invisible.

Riders over 50 who do this properly are not restricting harder. They are finally working with real numbers instead of comfortable guesses.

And once you can see it clearly, you can finally change it.

Starving every evening after a turbo session?

19/10/2026

Booked the trip. Counted down for months. Then spent the whole week riding alone.

It happens more than people admit.

You sign up for the dream cycling holiday abroad. The Dolomites, the Croatian coast, the French Alps. The photos look incredible. And then day one, you get placed in a group, and within twenty minutes you realise you’re nowhere near their level.

One rider in his early 60s told me he was thrown into a group of what he called badass cyclists on a trip in Croatia. Strong, fast, clearly used to riding together. He hung on for as long as he could. Then he got dropped. Not once. Every single day.

That’s the bit nobody warns you about. It’s not just uncomfortable. It changes the whole trip. You stop looking forward to the next ride. You start dreading it. You either grind out the week off the back, watching wheels disappear up the road, or you bail and ride alone, which is its own kind of lonely when everyone else is out there together.

And the maddening part is you saved for this. Booked it months ago. Told people about it. Then spent the week wondering why you bothered.

Here’s what actually changes it.

It’s rarely about raw fitness. It’s usually the extra kilos that quietly sap your power on every climb, the fuelling that’s never quite right for back to back days, and never having ridden consistently enough at the intensity that group riding abroad demands.

Sort those properly, and the group you get placed with stops being the problem.

Riders in their 50s and 60s who fix this arrive at the start line able to sit in, hold a wheel, and actually enjoy the climbs they’ve been picturing for months.

That trip you saved for deserves to be ridden with people, not chased alone.

Can smash every turbo session but always get dropped on real climbs.

This one confuses a lot of riders in their 50s and 60s. All winter the numbers look brilliant. Watts up, sessions ticked off, feeling stronger than ever. Then spring comes, you get on a real hill, and you’re watching wheels disappear.

I hear exactly this every spring. Solid numbers all winter indoors, still dropped on the first proper climb outside.

Here’s the bit that gets missed. On the trainer there’s no gravity. The bike is bolted to a frame, your weight is irrelevant, the number on screen is all that matters.

Outside, gravity switches back on. Every kilo has to be lifted up that hill, watt for watt, with nowhere to hide. Roughly speaking, that’s around 5 to 6 extra watts needed per extra kilo just to keep pace on the gradient.

So the engine built all winter was never the problem. It’s the number next to it, the one the trainer never asked you to carry.

Fix the power to weight side properly, no crash diets, no losing fitness, and those turbo numbers finally show up on the climbs.

Real hills don’t care how good you were indoors. They only care what you’re carrying when the road tips up.
