YES! Short riders & women struggle more with bunny hops, manuals, etc. - So STOP mansplaining! #014
Manage episode 432290934 series 3590876
When I train skills instructors or when I work with couples on bunny hops, manuals (or skills in general) it drives me CRAZY: When the guy says "It's easy, just..." Because NO, for women and shorter riders it's often NOT easy! In this episode I share my experience as a full-time mtb skills coach (and the frustration I endured when I started riding, especially as a female student being taught moves by men that simply DIDN'T work). I also share WHY Mullet it more than marketing, why women and shorter, lighter, older or weaker riders need an adapted approach to learning skills and why LADIES - you need to stop comparing yourselves to men and why GENTLEMEN - you need to stop mansplaining! Oh and I share 2 professional coaching tools to analyze and disect movements to make faster progress!
