29. Jonathan Vaughters- Art vs Science
from Cycling Performance Podcast Hosted by Team EF Coaching
In the return episode of The Cycling Performance Podcast, presented by Team EF Coaching, Nathan Haas and Colby Pearce sit down with EF Pro Cycling founder Jonathan Vaughters for a deep conversation on the evolving relationship between sports science, intuition, and human performance in cycling. JV reflects on decades in professional cycling. From being one of the earliest adopters of SRM power meters in the 1990s to building one of the longest-running professional cycling teams in the world. Together, the group explores why coaching remains as much an art as a science, even in today’s hyper-data-driven era. The conversation covers tapering mistakes, Grand Tour rest days, training intuition, racing as preparation, and why data alone can’t explain elite cycling performance. Featuring insights from decades inside the World-Tour, this episode dives deep into what really makes athletes faster, beyond the numbers.
