    Hi Jon, first of all, thanks for you opening up your problem to everybody and turning your problem as a advice to improve yourself but everybody with a kind of eating disorder that may impact fitness and mentally as well. Great you figured out and had the vision to overcome the problem methodically and along with your coach
    Finally, your situation was pretty similar what is happening to me know where I had a great fitness a couple of years ago but suddenly I found myself in a situation where I lost so much weight from riding and running in such level that I'd burnt all my muscle mass and got very skinny. Everybody was telling me I was too skinny but I thought I was fit as it's supposed to be for biking (less weight = more watts/kg). I never had into consideration how much energy/calories I burned after each ride and recover that level of energy into my body eating accordingly to maintain mass and energy.
    Currently, I had a serious problem of balance when riding that I've been dealing almost a year and an half, it isn't vertigo but when riding downhill or at high speed on flats I feel I'm being thrown out over the handlebar, my reflex is to unclip and slam the breaks.
    When to the doctor and send me to a sport medicine area to see it was a vestibular problem, supposedly I was diagnosticated with a problem with my vision as a result of losing the capacity to move my eyes quickly to scan all around. All because of using too much cellular phone and 2 computer screens, thus, my field of vision is reduced dramatically because the things come to my eyes instead of the eyes look at the things around along with the movement of the neck + head up/down and sideways. Some exercises were indicated, I think they helped out but occasional

  • @davidalvarez1560
    @davidalvarez1560 11 місяців тому

    This is really important information to share. Many people get in to endurance sports to lose weight (I did) and when you've lost the weight you're still maintaining the weight loss lifestyle (I did that too). I want to say it took about three years of me maintaining a lean body (and struggling with fitness goals) until I let up on the diet. Lo and behold, when I started eating more (a little more, not a lot, and still making healthier choices) my fitness metrics (vo2 max, etc) started improving again.

I have found also that training in the gym, core stability, legs, dead lifts, back, arms, shoulders... all really have a big impact on my performans on bike. Unfortunatly i am now in recovery mode since i fell really nasty and having four fractures.

    Thanks for sharing your experience. Having been heavy, do you find that there is fat that you are unable to lose? I've read that fat cells never go away, they'll shrink with weight loss, but the fat cells are still there. I lost 45 lbs over the past 2.5 years, but there is still "love handle" fat that just remains.

  • @lordalfa600
    @lordalfa600 Рік тому +1

    For long distance endurance, it is better to over fuel slightly than under. And as a T2 diabetic, the fuel system is less than optimal. Fuel floating in the body and not being able to use effectively. When I under fuel, cramps and fatigue onset a lot earlier in a century ride. When I over fuel, this was absent.
    My doctor told me not to worry about the calorie intake during endurance rides, just fuel consistently and regularly. The sugar will burn off even 2 h after the ride as the body begins to repair the cells.

    Hey Jon. Hope all is well. Are you making any more videos? Hope so, they are very good. I too struggle with trying to get enough rest and recovery before a hard effort. I also tried low carbs (almost Keto) back in early February and it was a huge mistake. Imo, Cyclists need carbs. Good luck with your cycling!

  • @draugmithrin
    @draugmithrin Рік тому +1

    Just finished 12 weeks of Fast 800 Keto diet and transitioning back to more calories and carbs now I'm training, hungrier and back riding with my club. The weight loss (30KG since Xmas), improved blood sugars and initial appetite reduction with keto was great, but as I've got fitter and into higher heart rate zones recovery became slower. Now figuring how much carbs and calories and meals to eat to maintain weigh loss, normal blood sugars and ability to ride at high intensity.

    I experienced this last summer. I was fasting 16hours everyday and only ate once! Yes 1 meal a day. I lost 30lbs in less than 2months from 190lbs to 160lbs.
    I was riding my bike during this process and when I hit 160lbs I noticed i was weaker. I had lower energy reserves for climbs or sprints.
    Fast forward now. I am back around 175lbs to 180lbs and I feel alot stronger. The weight I lost was my muscles. Now even though I am heavier I have the leg muscles to still climb hills or do sprints.
    I dont look like a typical cyclist whose usually skinny but I can pull the numbers out when I need to. Appearance and health are 2 different things.

    I'm so glad around the 7min 50 second mark you finally said you dont have the 10 pounds to lose. Looking at you on youtube from the chest up you for sure are not overweight. If anything you have what I would call the professional biker skinny going on. Out of control hungry. Yea i'll never have that problem as when I get too hungry it triggers migraines. The diet is going to be key. Instead of going for that easy junk food its replacing that food with fruits and vegetables instead. Loved the video keep up the great content.

    I did this, not in a cycling context, but I rekt myself cutting when I was already underweight due to body image issues. I made myself weak, got covid, and was basically a broken human being for over a year. When you lose the fat you can't just keep cutting, you have to bulk, or at least eat to maintain. Fasting is great when you're fat. Skinny people need to eat on a schedule. Accepting planned bulking and cutting cycles changed my life.

Seems to me that you are saying don’t cut calories and fast if you are wanting to keep your fitness? In my experience I want to lose weight quickly so I can get to maintanence calories. But it’s like if I fuel for my rides properly it’s like my weight loss is slower

My dream is to be under 200 pounds and I'm only 5'9 so it wouldn't be unhealthy for me. I'm also 47 so weight like to hang on. Be nice to fly up them hills though lol.
