Most self-coached cyclists don’t struggle from lack of motivation — they struggle because they keep repeating a handful of fixable mistakes.In this video, we break down five of the biggest traps ambitious riders fall into — from overbuilding fatigue and obsessing over FTP, to misusing readiness data and relying too heavily on AI. These aren’t beginner errors… they’re the subtle ones that quietly cap your performance.More importantly, we’ll show you how to correct each mistake with simple, practical shifts you can apply immediately.
