The vest brings back bootcamp and deployments
55 Looking to be fitter and faster at 60, this is the first video ive watched all the way through and kept listening, thanks.
Brilliant video guys 👍 my long hard slog to my first ever ebike enduro race next year 😅
Thanks brother. 👊
Yet another great video, thanks guys!
Smashed myself up pretty bad just before lockdown started, needed surgery and a titanium 'upgrade', but its actually worked out as a great opportunity to hit the re-set button and deal with the niggling imbalances that have plagued me for years and then start to build up from (what felt like) scratch again. Discovered Johnny and Fit 4 racing along the way, and I'm already in the best shape I've been in for years and I've got a whole winter to go yet - Look out 2021, I'm gonna tear you a new one GRRRRR!!!!!
hahaha
Keep up the good work Johnny!
Thanks for the positive vibes. Keep doing what you’re doing 👊
wow I am so glad I found your channel ....I went vegan in 2019 & have lost 100 pounds & now I ride a bike
Great video, excellent quality and content. Thank you!
Love your content! Believe it or not, watching your videos got me training in a more focused way again. Thanks.
Amazing! These kind of comments mean so much. Keep it up brother
Awesome video! I like these type of hands on studies.
You motivate me to train and prepare for the competition :)
Guys, i love your content! Been training with you guys in the gym and my riding improved! Keep it up!!!!!
P.s. which of your training program is better for emtb? Downhill or motocross?
As a former crossfitter and current mountain biker who has struggled with weight control my entire life im completely all in on this content of blending function fitness with my 2 favorite things to get fit and have fun. but as a current fat guy at 300lbs I lol at the weight vest making him feel like a fat guy, i know im riding with a weight vest every day and its putting muscle in the bank as I learn how to program my work outs to focus on results. just need to stay away from the beer fridge.
Beer is definitely not going to help LOL. If you can make some small changes on your diet habits and consistently train you'll be on to a winner. Adam could do with a couple more vests to really slow him down!
Dude I was 300 a year ago I lost like 45lbs and still feel fat on my mountain bike 😆
Best advice I've come across so far. Great stuff, thank you! Tried so many time to work myself into better shape only to find I'm justifying more caloric intake, and not much changes. We'll see what happens in 2021!
Glad you found it helpful!
Cant remember the weight of vest on video if it was 20lb or 10lb but (and especially on the non ebike climb) 20lb would have a big difference on SAG and then ride height pedaling up / the rear linkage which would in my mind effect efficiency of the body with the bike. I dont know if ye addressed this or just went with it. What could interesting is to see too weighted climbs. One at +35% and one climb at 30% (OEM recommended). Just a thought.
Diet-wise, I found keto to have fast results but it's an unsustainable lifestyle. I also found a significant drop in power during the few months I tried keto. Anyway, assuming weight isn't my issue, how should I go about improving climbing on long (45min +) gravel/access roads? That would mean training lactate threshold/FTP, right?
Max D the more “extreme” the diet, the more risk you run that it will effect your performance. Nutrition should be a lifestyle choice and something that is sustainable through habit and routine.
For 45 minute gravel then your right, increase power by spending time at that end of the scale, but also spend time at the other - increase absolute strength, this will contribute massively and if you’re relatively new to training with “heavy” weight you’ll see a difference quickly.
I gained 20lbs makes everything harder on bike faster downhills but less traction my goals 190 drop 15lbs from 205
para cuando en español 😁🤘
As a 60 lbs overweight guy... Ok I gotta start losing more weight 😞 😆
HOI. The hell do you mean 'itll be nice to see what its like to be fat'... your probably still lighter than me when youve got that vest on.haha
heavier people crash harder as well, not just a benefit on the hills 😁
talks a lot of sense
First part of the video was not relevant to the actual title. 16 min video and all you said was lose weight.
Mathew Bobier we fee it is relevant as it shows the difference an extra 20lb makes to ascents, e-bike and and enduro.
And in the second part we actually explain how and why to 1; lose weight 2: build absolute strength 3: become more athletic.
So in our defence, your simplification of this is off the mark.
