Came home late from work and felt tired and unmotivated to do my swim session. (Currently training for my first Ironman in Cph next year). I make a cup of tea and sit in front of my computer to see what Lionel is up to, and after seeing him do his swim session twice I know within mysef that there is only one thing to do now. I hurry out the door before the pool closes to get the session in. I end up having one of the best sessions of my life. Thanks again Lionel for your inspiration ! You have been a part of changing my life. Greeting from DK!
Lionel would probably find a good career as a sports commentator after he stops competing. His observation s are incisive, detailed and delivered in a economic and effective manner
The times by the Norwegians are daunting. Great to see Lionel now has the same coach as Gustov, that should definitely help. Great vid Lionel, keep them coming.
@@fredericksmith4303 I mean, that wasn't the most articulate comment, but in the past the Nords have gotten in trouble for doping in cross country skiing. Also, while there has not been evidence to suggest doping, the rise of Jakob Ingebrigtsen and the rest of the clan is noteworthy. Jakob has been training like a pro runner since he was kid, but to win the Olympic gold at 20 over the heavy favorite is suspicious
Please check your data before making comments. Norwegians have some of the lowest rates of doping worldwide, as well some of the strongest anti-doping regimes. There has been arguments whether asthma medicine is doping, that’s pretty much it.
And the ingrebrigtsens literally have zero doping suspicions surrounding them - apart from good times. Steady progress since the age of 12 and an entire camera crew following them for the tv show. No way they are doped
Talbot this is a masterpiece video! The content, the cut and the music together with Lionel's passion and the outlook for the upcoming months. Very poweful. I feel the dedication, obsession and passion through your videos. Thank you!
Just did my first ever triathlon and Ironman in Cozumel. Loved watching Lionel’s videos during training. Feels like how the regular guy can push himself to the limit. NO LIMITS KEEP ON PUSHING
Definitely a new era. Getting closer and closer to sub 7 hours! I think within a couple of years, the top 5 IM athletes will need to run sub 2:30 off a sub 4 hour IM bike, to win an IM title. That's where the biggest time gains will come from. The coaches just need to fine tune the training and I believe the athletes will make it happen. Onwards and Upwards 💪🏽 Lionel ❗️❗️
Lionel, you are a legit inspiration! I cannot express my level of appreciation for your willingness to share your journey and how impactful it is to me. Mad respect!! As always, Talbet is a master!!
This honestly might be the best video Talbot has put out. The insight into Lionel's thinking is awesome, as always, and the editing in this is really impressive...fingers crossed that Lionel can find a way to beat out the best IM world championship field Kona has ever seen next year. Its gonna be a wild, wild race
I remember reading an articel about swiming training back in the 90's where the main point was that so much of the energy gets lost to water resistance that the main focus should always be to minimize drag and get the optimal position in the water. I think the article said that if you increased the power by some amount only about 10% of that power would actually translate into swiming faster. The remaining 90% would be lost. I can't remember who wrote the article. But I think it was one of USA's previous national team coaches. Main focus of the article was about "Pushing the T". I think you have reached the same type of conclusions.
It is tough to see how fast the perspective/goal can change within a short period of time. Not long ago it was: "I have to run a 2:42 after the bike". Now we are down at a 2:32isch.... sick!
Great quality video and loved hearing Lionels thoughts on what is needed to win a major race! Great to see you enjoying and being up for the challenge. Hope you have a great training block.
Lionel, Its about efficiency. Its not about more power. You have the power. Be more efficient. Smoother. Get those knees tucked in on the bike. Work on your core and hips, so your not rocking side to side. Work on your arm swing in the run. Work on the details of how to be faster for the same or reduced effort. Tell Byron Thomas I said Hi!
I wanted to say that GUSTAV Iden is an underdog. Kristian is the guy who will take it all. They both started in 2010 for a 10 year long goal where all other triathletes train year to year or race to race. I can’t believe how hard is to be on top level in triathlon. At 46 I can only dream and beat my age groupers. Great video as always!
Love the videos, signed up today for my first ever triathlon event & first ever Ironman 70.30 in Lanzarote in March 2022. Something I never wouldve thought about a few years ago. But these video really inspire/ hype me up to train and grind and see what will happen next🔥
Lionel you rock! You has so much motivation and are inspiring. Best trait is that you never give up, it is addictive. Thanks for posting. It helps us weekend warriors who still try to train hard.
I started swimming 6 months ago at the age of 27 seven and after so much pain, so much struggle, I came to realize that's as if the water is moving and your body's almost static, there's no muscle at all and now I have to change my swimming techniques cause although my swimmates tell me I look elegant, and I look professional swimming, I built that on the idea of muscleing my way through it and now that I started to understand the water I'm relearning all the movements again, I'm loving the process
Thanks LS!! I've been in a total mind block and lack of motivation trying to figure out when and how I'm going to start my training for upcoming 70.3 in 2022. As always you always bring it home with the hard work, motivation and commitment to yourself.. I think it's time for me to cut the BS and bring it!! Thank you sir!
Swimming is a technical sport for most adults because as non (competitive) swimmers during childhood we have never had the fundamental education to swim correctly. In running and cycling we have had that in our daily life and that´s why we feel if something is going wrong. We do not necessarily know exactly what is going wrong, but we notice it and a few hints from a coach will be enough to fix the problem. In swimming we do not have the natural connection to the water and the feeling for these movement patterns. We are maybe or very likely doing something wrong without even noticing it. That´s why we need a lot of very good coaching.
Lionel, you are raising the bar for men's pro field. The men's pro field is raising your bar higher than if you finished first place every race. You rock
Absolutely correct this is a new era! You need to improve efficiency through technique and flexibilty. And think about improved blood oxygen level with / after high altitude training ... Then you're in the race.
Love the attitude. Also love that you seen the team more form the inside now and give propps. You, Jan, Sam, Alistair, Patrick, Gustav and Kristian will make next years worlds the best tri competition in history
He’s always been a machine 😁. He is just consistently learning how to operate and run it better and hopefully starting to get it well oiled (fed correctly).
Amazing video. I am stoked for the future with videos like this. Ironman racing is gonna be insane for the next 3-5 years with all these guys pushing like this. Not sure if it is possible but it would be awesome to do a video with Lionel, Sam and Heather.
I love that these times are being dropped and accepted as just a new challenge! You have to respect the attitude. What I really want to know is what Lionel listens to during his workouts.
I love the fact that Lionel loves the challenge and is so ready to go to an even higher level! Awesome! I really don't know if anyone else is able to push themself to the level he does. But, I also think to maximize his results he has to make his running form a priority just like he has with his swimming. If he ran more efficiently I think he could run with anyone. I have been a life long runner and finally had a gait analysis done and the feedback has had an immediate impact on my running form and performance. Thanks for the great and honest videos of your journey to be the best and never giving up!
The sport hasn’t changed but the standards required to win have just risen and instead of one person at that level in Frodeno, you now have 3. Everyone else needs to join the party and no doubt that you won’t be found short from a lack of smart application. I am positively inspired by your attitude in acceptance of the challenge, the excitement and energy it gives you and that there’s a whole better than ever you to go realise. Also, wicked edition again Talbot. Loved those montage inserts. Another great watch
I know Lionel is now working with Mikal Iden, but will he also work with Arild Tveiten? From what I understand, he is one of the major reasons -- along with many others -- behind the Norwegians' successes. I think implementing his training philosophy would really change the look of Lionel's workout sessions. Especially in terms of data. Anyway, I would be curious to find out.
Damn, I hate how much talent you have. Yes, I'm jealous. hahahaha! Great job on that swim. Also, thank you very much for explaining why you did that 10x 200m again. Before you're explanation, I really did think that you were going to go overboard and overwork, become fatigued and overtrained. Now I get it. Thanks, Li!
Agree! One thing Blummenfelt said in an interview when asked about training with Gustav and other guys was "I need to take care of beating the rest of the world before I take care of beating my teammates". Lionel and Sam would push each other even more if they did it the same way.
im not sure we ever reach our peak performance. i ran a 3;22 philly marathon that i was pretty happy with last week. my first marathon was NYC i ran a 4;02.. now i think its possible for me to get under 3hrs, but if you asked me that when i ran ny, i would have been highly doubtful. i guess my point is that there are levels to this stuff, that just keep going forever. there really is no limit. with the mindset this guy has, it will happen for him.. 🤷♂
St George in May - 1st Lionel, 2nd Jan, 3rd Gustav, 4th Kristin, 5th Sebi - that's how I hope it unfolds. Lionel you gotta win for all your fans. Efficiency and good nutrition and you got this!!!
Unfortunately, that's probably not going to happen. I feel confident in a Gustav, Kristian, Jan podium, given that nothing goes horribly wrong. Those dudes just don't have weaknesses. And Sebi will have a really hard time getting into the top 5 given his Achilles injury. Lionel has been beaten in Iron-distance races THIS YEAR by many heavy-hitters, including Jan, Gustav, Sam Long (albeit during the Coeur d'Alene mishap), Joe Skipper, and Cam Wurf. I definitely see Lionel in the top 10, but the sport of triathlon is simply becoming too competitive to bank on a championship title given a swim weakness and unreliable history for the distance. Here are my predictions: 1st, 2nd, 3rd: some permutation of Jan, Gustav, Kristian 4th- 8th: some permutation of Lionel, Patrick Lange, Joe Skipper, Cam Wurf, Sam Long Competing for top 10: Rasmus Svenningson, Jan Van Berkel, Leon Chevalier, Florian Angert, Daniel Baekkegard, Denis Chevrot, Kristian Hogenhaug There are probably a few people I am forgetting about. Either way, the only thing you can expect on race day is for SOMETHING unexpected to happen. So who knows how inaccurate my predictions will end up being. By the way, I don't mean to offend anyone. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of Lionel. I'm simply trying to analyze this objectively.
This dudes videos are actually awesome - good to see what it is like at the highest level!!! I’m new to them, but they are very fascinating!!! I will say, and don’t mean to be rude at all - just from observation, this Lionel guy surely could work on his running technique? I am not an expert at all, and I am 100% sure this has been mentioned already, but as a runner, he looks like he limps almost, and his heel-striking 😖😖 , it hurts my joints just watching it… I don’t feel is efficient at all, I feel like surely he could shave some time off this? Anyway - these videos are excellent, really enjoy it!
It just shows there is so much to gain from training. Its not lile triathlon or Norway has a very deep talent pool. The real supertalents, lets say the Haille Gebresalassies of the game never even competed once.
Interesting comments by Lionel about learning to swim as an adult. My daughter has been swimming competitively since she was quite young, and training has always emphasized technique. It is not that intensity and power do not matter, but technique must be maintained. I wonder if that gets lost somewhat in the chaos of the triathlon race setting.
Very nice and honest video ! Lionel you have to train in a proper company like Gutsav and Kristian. I am pretty sure you will be also an author of the new chapter
what kind of headphones are you using in the video (min. 3:10 or something) and are they good? :D And btw. super sympathic video, you should win next year the world championship (the 2nd one in Kona!) :)
I love Lionel and Sam but I won't be sad when Europeans (N, DE, DK, GB) eat them for breakfast next year. :D Really hoping for good fight. Thanks for the video - Lionel's fighting spirit is super inspirational.

See you in a Cph next year!
The best training sessions are the ones we don't want to do.
Good luck with the training man! Just did my first ever ironman in CPH last august.
"last race of the year" needs to be printed on some LS t-shirts ;)
lol
i was thinking of that myself
great one man. Lionel got me really excited with this fire burning in him
I second that 🙋♂️
Lionel would probably find a good career as a sports commentator after he stops competing. His observation s are incisive, detailed and delivered in a economic and effective manner
Yet somehow also philosophical.
Sam Long 😂😂😂👌 this video was GREAT! There's a real vibe and buzz about what could happen in St George now... YEOW
The times by the Norwegians are daunting. Great to see Lionel now has the same coach as Gustov, that should definitely help. Great vid Lionel, keep them coming.
Norwegians probably started to use more efficient PEDs than those currently used by elite Ironman athletes.

I watch many videos from PRO triathletes but Lionel is the only I can't get enough of. I'm always looking forward to his next video.
