The Physiology of Biking: How the bike works our bodies and how our bodies work the bicycle.

Ever wondered how your body does what it does on the bike?
From how we hold our balance to how the Tour De France riders or Iron men and women make it through impossible challenges, to how to keep a fresh perspective; from how men and women's body needs differ when exercising to how cycling affects life in your bedroom and more. our guests Dr. Stacy Simms, Exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist, and biomechanical engineer from University of California Davis Judd Van Sickle will break down the mysteries of how we use the bike and what it does for us.
