A conversation with Dr. Allen Lim, PhD. He is a sports physiologist, cycling coach, and a founder of Skratch Labs. He’s lent his expertise to Saris and was instrumental in their product development of power meters and indoor cycling trainers. He was also a director of sport science for Garmin and RadioShack cycling teams and is the only American scientist to have worked and cooked for teams at the Tour de France. Dr. Lim has also worked with dozens of top American cyclists to improve their performance and nutrition.

We discuss the global pandemic moving more people to train indoors and in isolation and the impact. We talk about the benefits of training indoors and address common questions regarding how close a relationship does indoor training have to training outdoors. Dr. Lim offers his perspective on where indoor training and fitness is going.

We talk about how the co-evolution of wearable technology, big data and AI and how it is reshaping the entire fitness and coaching businesses and where it may lead to in the future.

We get into bike geometry and whether or not all for the new “super bikes” have any real measurable benefit to the triathlete to justify the high costs.

We discuss nutrition and how all of the data we have now with indoor training technology may inform athletes nutrition and fueling decisions.

We discuss Scratch Labs, a company Dr. Lim founded as a nutrition, fueling and nourishment company for athletes that is best known for its hydration mix.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
