Tadej Pogačar's Strave KOMs Are a Window Into His Elite Physiology
The Slovenian superstar has some of the most impressive cycling achievements on record, and his Strava data shows just how hard he pushes himself.
In an interview with Cyclingnews, Pogačar's head of performance, Inigo San Millan, revealed that the rider's Zone 2 heart rate is around 10 beats per minute lower than the average pro cyclist. This means that Pogačar can ride at a higher intensity for longer periods of time without fatiguing.
Pogačar's Strava data also shows that he frequently rides in Zone 3, which is just below his lactate threshold. This type of training helps to improve his endurance and ability to recover from hard efforts.
Pogačar's success is a result of his hard work and dedication, as well as his unique physiology. He is a true champion and an inspiration to cyclists around the world.
