About this listen
With a bike, a turbo trainer, and the right advice, you can beat anyone.
No one but Graeme Obree has the clarity of vision to get to the heart of the "problem" of how to improve as a racing cyclist. His innovative approach took him to the top of world cycling, twice breaking the world hour record - a story picked up in his Hollywood biopic The Flying Scotsman. It can draw the same outstanding athletic performance from you.
The Obree Way sidesteps conventional wisdom and strips cycling back to its elements, always asking the question: "What actually improves my race time?" This is no routine training program. Written in a conversational style, the book explains Graeme Obree’s radical insights into technique, training, psychology, and diet, and the clear logic behind them.
At last, the best kept secret in cycling, the Obree three-phase breathing technique, is revealed in detail, getting more oxygen to your blood with less effort. Graeme Obree’s training methods really work - the man is living proof. He believes that resting is key to training, that you can pedal, stretch, and breathe more effectively and that, if you really want it, you can find the will and intensity to improve. Get on your bike!

What you get is a book full of information that worked for Graeme.
If it’s not in here then chances are it wasn’t fundamentally useful to Graeme’s quest to become better equipped mentally and physically to achieve his goals. There’s no jargon or unnecessary commercial recommendations where you need to spend a lot of money in order to improve. Hopefully Graeme will save you some time, money and energy by sharing his tried and tested way of training. He explains what it means to recover and just what levels of exertion are beneficial.
The book is well worth a read or in this case a listen.
You don’t achieve what this maverick cycling legend has achieved without learning a thing or two.
He broke Moser’s Hour Record and he also beat Boardman.
This book contains information about how he did that and it’s easy to understand why Sir Chris Hoy was inspired by him.
Obree is a legend

Obree is an innovator but much of the information and advice is actually about keeping it simple and basic. Concentrating on the fundamentals though not for the sake of it.
The training ideas are achievable- it’s not endless hours of programmes and uploading data. It’s marginal improvements and recovery.
It’s maybe not regarded as cutting edge but it’s backed up by world records which can’t be said of most of the competition in the training manual field.
Fascinating insight
