I really like the friendship between Lionel and Talbot and their families. I think if anyone else tried to ask questions and film Lionel the outcome wouldn’t be near as positive. Thanks for sharing.
Hey Lionel, the Mauna Lani pool is closed Wednesday and Thursday for maintenance. I have a 25m lap pool at home I will offer to my favorite pro - it’s a couple of miles north of Kawaihae on those first stair steps.
Lionel, I had my PB 70.3 (6th one) last week. I attribute a lot of that success to you and these videos (always been a fan but really clicked in this year). Your videos are motivational, inspirational, educational. Learned a lot especially about nutrition through you and the feed. I feel like I’m just now scratching the surface of my potential and really want to keep rolling. Just wanted to share. Thank you
The explanations he's doing recently about lactate and changing conditions are finally way and way more on point in comparison to the last time Lionel used lactate when he just wanted to do what Kristian and Gustav were doing. I feel like it's making more sense to him now as to why lactate is such a great guidance and to me it seems like if everything goes well and Lionel has a great swim, a top 8 is almost certain. Good job on the vids too, Talbot! Hats off :)
How was your JJ?? Good rolls? What belt are you? Hit any new submissions? Preparing for an upcoming comp? I took part in a comp last weekend. Not my best work as a white belt😔
It’s been an absolute game changer for me and my teammates. We now train at the right intensities and have become highly fat-adapted for fuel vs. glycogen. No more bonking during races. Optimized race nutrition plan. Better bounce back/recovery from quality sessions. Etc. the benefits have been far-reaching
Above LT1 is where the working muscle cannot cope with the lactate any more and part of it is released to blood circulation for other muscles and organs to use. Above LT2 is where the whole body cannot cope with lactate any more so lactate in blood goes through the roof.
You may be correct yet the Tour riders always ride three hours or so on a rest day. And the announcers always mention the absolute need to do so. Not sure a 4 hour hour ride and a 2 hour run is the way to go. Maybe his comments are a parody of a comment I made yesterday.
We’re on our honeymoon right now in Kona, and let me tell you, the heat today was no joke! It’s nice to see everyone out there despite that. Gonna go for a run in the morning myself, see y’all on the road.
304watts, pulse 129, lactate 1.3!!!!! Zone 2!!! Burning mostly fat!!! Just shy of Pogacar 320 watts in zone 2!!! And 364 watts with lactate 2.2!!! And using a metric to adjust training!
I wonder if the heat dissociation curve (higher levels of co2, lower pH, and obviously higher temp of blood) caused you to feel off... your body could still have been acclimatizing and CNS might have been a little shocked from the extra work. Kudos for using a lactate reader and HRV to keep everything under wraps, monitoring intensity and recovery closely, every triathlete has much to learn from Lionel. If others are curios or still reading you can save money on a lactate reader if your on a budget by observing and tracking your ventilation rate as they follow nearly identical breaking points when plotted on a graph as LT1 and LT2.
Lionel has become so into data. He relies on it. When I first heard about him he was a recovering cocaine addict and animal on the bike. He seems not be a big factor anymore. For guys who can’t swim with lead pack the bike needs to be exploited and hang on for the run. He plays it to save ..dynamic but takes no risk. Anyways how many more Kona’s does he have in him? I hope he takes the win one day and just unplugs.
Just pretend you are a car, or motorcycle, or even a surf board, or a pair of shoes, or anything really, how do they hold up, if you use them all the time, and never give them a time to rest, even running shoes we swap out to let them rest, lol and I was taught, just like attitude training, it take two weeks to acclimate, same with humidity,,,it's like all these lactate testing is a waste of time,,,
you do know the best endurance athletes in the world basically never take a day off training. Cyclists don't even really taper. When they have a race on Sunday, they will do a long ride (and I mean like 6h) on Wednesday or Thursday. They will do a recon of the parcours on Thursday or Friday. Saturday they do a small ride but with efforts to keep the blood floing. Monday after the race 2h recovery ride and they start all over again on Tuesday.
I love the Kristian jokes. Don't like this guy. "I will win the Tour de France hohoho". "I have the highest VO2max, hohoho *gorilla pound*". Man has no respect.
Such a bad take. Anyone who has paid any attention to him over the last few years would know it’s all a joke and he’s actually very well liked amongst his peers. Generally an extremely respectful guy.
@@Gws525 Winning Frankfurt and then saying, he would have changed this win with Paris is disrespectful for all other pro's and agegroupers in Frankfurt. If he doesn't care for a win, he is welcome to not compete. Also winning TdF was no joke. Apart from TdF-Bikers no one took this announcement as joke. Not a single one. The bike pros did, because they knew better. Also his wins are completely overrated. 3 or 4 IM wins and Tokyo don't put him near the GOAT, they even don't put him in the Top10 of all times. If he won as much races as he is bragging about his training, he would have 5 world titles and 3 olympic golds.
@@bluesparrow-hx5qf what age are you ? Saying you’d swap another Olympic Gold - that he’d been training for for the entire year, which he was very clear was his focus, which is a far bigger race, far more prestigious - that’s not disrespectful to anyone. At all. He needed to race to qualify for Kona, genius ? lol, he went from an Olympic gold to iron man world champ, then 70.3 champ, then tried to go back for Gold. Also, he broke the IM world record and just smoked the field at Frankfurt with a 2.35 marathon after basically no training? You not liking the guy doesn’t take away from what are objectively amazing achievements, no matter how childish or bitter you are. And he’s absolutely in the GOAT convo. You’re completely deluded (and bitter) if you think otherwise

Loving this guys, makes me feel like I’m on the big island with you 👍
Lionel is making me want to buy a home lactate tester lol.
I wonder though if anyone really became better by using it.
It’s been an absolute game changer for me and my teammates. We now train at the right intensities and have become highly fat-adapted for fuel vs. glycogen. No more bonking during races. Optimized race nutrition plan. Better bounce back/recovery from quality sessions. Etc. the benefits have been far-reaching
@@Tothesatneptomorrow which home lactate meter do you use? I'm getting lactate threshold testing next month in a lab, but also want to test at home
2 videos in 2 days? Yes please 🎉🎉
keep up the vlogs, I watch them when I get back from work, training for my first marathon
That broom stick is going to be sold out after Lionel wins Kona.
I love those videos, such a high quality, motivating and I love the educational aspects like explaining the importance of lactate etc! Keep it up
Lionel I got to work, you know? I can’t just stop working to watch your videos. 🤣
Woohoo! Day 3!
Watched your video this morning after breakfast. Appreciated the information on lactate. You look very relaxed. We are rooting for you!
I hope he has a good race and a solid top 10. Anything else is a bonus.
Cold blooded shit from LS. “I don’t have to outswim a shark Bert. I just have to outswim you…”
Amazing to start the day with these videos! Superior Editing!
better than netflix!!
Loving the content and looks like Lionel is dialing in his body. Lfg!!!
Really enjoying these LS KONA VLOGS. thx guys
lionel is a full blown exercise physiolgist and would be an amazing coach after "retiring"
Few weeks ago he stopped using lactate and now back to it. He changes speech every 3 months. Not very reliable
Lmao

The rest day will pay dividends. You feel shitty for a day but in the long run you will reap the rewards Lionel!

@@gtkona1608 They need to stay in the rythm because almost each day a big performance is needed. Lionel need to peak one day in about 18 days.
@@gtkona1608False, Tour guys Ride 45m to 1h30m
Love this sport, love LS! No Limits!!
seeing Lionel actually swimming in the open water gives me hope he can win this lol.
everything is possible!! let's hope for the best.
Great content, guys. Thanks❤
Great video. Thank you for the information.
loved the chatgpt lactate explanation lol
Good stuff…..thank you for sharing!!!!
✊🏽
When all resources are scarce for the body on a good push, it prioritizes thermoregulation
All the very best for Kona, The World Championship and you're forthcoming sponsorship deal with Red Bull !! 😆
One time for the one time! You're gonna win Kona this year.
Best one yet. Keep it going
Keeps getting better...
Levi and Lionel 🙌❤️😎👌✌️
Lionel Sanders with the win at 7 hours and 34 minutes
We’re on our honeymoon right now in Kona, and let me tell you, the heat today was no joke! It’s nice to see everyone out there despite that. Gonna go for a run in the morning myself, see y’all on the road.
How does Lionel translate this data into race day if he can't tell by HR or how is body feels?
304watts, pulse 129, lactate 1.3!!!!! Zone 2!!! Burning mostly fat!!! Just shy of Pogacar 320 watts in zone 2!!! And 364 watts with lactate 2.2!!! And using a metric to adjust training!
Yeah but probably ~10kg weight difference between them ;)
@@lasq88 I know. That is why TP has such a high watts/kg ratio. Nevertheless, 304 watts in zone 2 should mean LS is preserving glycogen.
Amazing live coverage during training. Isn't LT2 more towards 3-3,5 mmol/l? Low 2s seems quite low for me.
You know they're good buddies at 5.50!
Lionel and Bert are like Batman and Robin! #SuperDuo

i like this video more then usual -- camera man is cool
thanks for sharing guys i love to see it! see if you can do a couple training sessions with kristian! 😝
chat gpt saying 'um' tripped me out
So LT1 is where you wanna be during tapering in race week? Need tips please 🙏.
The big question on everyone's mind can we avoid the race before the race?! I just love watching Lionel no days off all the way to Kona :-)!!!!!
Great content. What do you think of ketones? And in particular ketone IQ?
what sunglasses is Lionel wearing in this video (the beach ones)??
“Is not an oh-ohh when you do it intentionally” 😂
ChatGPT is a nice touch
Thanks Chat GPT! I still want to see another ice bath
what watch is lionel using?
Link to the stick pls 🙂
Redbull is the best thing ever invented to drink while riding at all 😂
MORE BERT!!!
What’s this HVR you speak of? 🤔
I’d give my life for an LS Tilly hat
substrate utilisation ^
I thought lionel was done with lactate/didnt think it was really useful. Would love to hear why hes incorporating again!
Never mind i just got to the chat gtp part 😂
I'm new here, why is his LT2 heart rate so low? Is it so hot his lactate is high at such a low HR?
All I can think is his poor past coaches 😂😂😂😂😂😂.
I feel for them .
Can't believe you let the TdF comment get to ya 😂😅
Algorithm!
A good dad
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Whats Lionels Max HR when his HR at LT2 is 130?
lets go
Did you invite Andrew Huberman to do your Chat GPT voice over?? :D sound just like him. Who is this?
How can I win a free lactate meter?
Just invent a chip to implant that gives all kinds of real time readings incl. lactate. Wouldnt that be something.
Red Bull will be dropping off a case of the stuff, if they're smart, after this video.
For those who aren’t sure by HVR they really mean HRV. Haha!!
And Red Bull pulled their Ironman sponsorship 😢
Did the AI voice add hmms and pauses when it read out it's answer?!

That chatGPT explanation of lactate is actually just wrong :D
Lactate doesn't build up and get you fatigued, waste products of burning lactate do.
HR of 135 while kicking 364 Watts lol
No no no, you feel great because you DID have a recovery day. It is all cycles. Please dont go to the start line overtrained again;-)
10/9 Recovery day cancelled... Vlog incoming???
Finally!
do you want to become world champion?
