On this big bumper edition of the podcast we hit all the topics and come back with one of America's hottest new athletes, Alpine skierAndrew Weibrecht.  At just 23 years old, Weibrecht made the Olympic team in daring fashion only to surprise the biggest names in the sport of skiing by producing his best ever international result in the men's Super G to take home a bronze medal.  We talk with Andrew on the sport of skiing, his development and his training, as well as some less known facts about the sport.

Also on the podcast, we skip our Tipcast and not only discuss the the latest research on strength training and cycling, but also hit the mailbag and address the myth of base miles and capillary beds. Finally, our 18th podcast is getting some new music.  Treadmill Trackstar returns with their first album in almost 14 years and you can hear the music here!

Sit down, or pop in the ear buds, you won't want to miss this podcast!
