The video is interesting but, for me, not very useful. My Garmin watch gives widely varying heart readings so I'm thinking of buying a chest strap. But I want to know about connectivity. If you run and have a chest strap monitor do you have to take your smartphone along to see your heart rate or can you download on to your smartphone after the run, like I do with my watch? When you say the Garmin chest strap and watch 'talk to each other' what exactly does that mean?

I'm sick of heart rate monitors and so called smart watches, they never work consistently, no matter how expensive they are and straps connected to apps don't connect or disconnect mid workout too often

Well, last year I changed to vegetarian for a year ( I ate chicken which I thought was included, oops). I lost weight slowly with easy cardio and tone for 20 to 30 minutes daily before I went to work. Until summer time I decided to do lift again following the Thinner Leaner and Stronger book. I ended up gaining weight about 3 lbs more. It did not work! I continued with an easy workout from KZbin. My weight is still the same as stable. I couldn't lose 3 lbs. I accepted hard ha. But, then I was told that I need to eat 30 percent of meat and 70 % of vegetables for my health issue. I changed back to the regular diet. Sometimes I miss vegetarianism. I wonder if the next level book is similar to a thinner leaner and stronger book? I need to read it at the books store soon. Thanks for sharing.

@johnowens7800 27 күн бұрын
Stop showing single pole usage, this is very inefficient and not how poles should be used. Yes more calories are used due to the number of muscle groups involved but the body is working at an overall lower intensity - think of it like your upper and lower body as seperate engines involved when powering you over the terrain but at lower output / revs compared to lower body maxed out, leading to further, faster and less overloaded. That said technique is crucial and most people have no idea. With practice steep loose terrain is much safer and quicker with poles but this is analogous with less breaking when MTB ing - takes practice. In some long distance races they are called cheat stick's for a reason and banned.

I will update this video as I get some footage, we are still early season here so I had to use the little bit of pole footage that I had in the archive, even though I take 2 when hiking for myself and the research I cite was for 2 pole usage! Thanks for you comment and input!

Very cool video, just came across your channel from it. My family just started the process of getting seriously into hiking, and got everyone a set of adjustable poles. The hand swelling is seriously an underrated & not talked about aspect of using poles, if you have circulatory issues even more so. So far we've found having super easy to adjust and also having an easy way to attach it to your pack when you don't want to use them makes using poles super fun. Almost adds a layer of "strategy" to the hikes. Anyway look forward to more of your content!

Super interesting topic, thanks! Unless I know I'm staying on tame terrain I almost always bring my poles. When they make it out of my pack is when the terrain gets steep and rocky, but like you said I put them away if I get to something steep enough to require scrambling. The only other consideration I have is if there is snow and ice present. If it's slick, sometimes I like to have them even on flat terrain in case of slips.

Hi, thanks for these videos. I do 3 days of free weights training a week (mon, wed, fri), with core workouts on the 2 alternating days (tue, thu), and then 2 days rest. I do some light cycling each day as a warm up. I was wondering which days would it be best to include the plyo training? Thank you!
@wildrfitness Ай бұрын
Nice work! Keep ut up! Typically I recommend doing plyometrics at the beginning of weight training days, AFTER you are fully warm but before your main lifts. But as always, it also depends what your goals are :)
@oitoitoi1 Ай бұрын
@@wildrfitness Thank you! I'd love if you could do a video on proper warm ups for strength training, I'm never really sure what to do other than stretching as I find too much cardio can effect my lifting ability, so increasingly I'm doing it after the workout. I've now added the plyometrics before the weightlifting and love it! It's really fun to do, I've kept the number of contacts very low as you recommended for a beginner. I do some kettlebell swings after the weightlifting as well. I thought I'll get some 9 inch hurdles in 6-8 weeks so I can mix plyometric and agility training. I've also added the exercises from your stability video to my core workout days. My aims at the moment are weight loss (on a strict diet with high protein), but I'm aiming to go to a ski race camp next summer just for fun (I'm 36) as I'd love to give it a go and improve my technique to a really high level, and I just love skiing fast so much in general, but this season I could really tell my physical conditioning was holding back my skiing so I want to get on top of that. I figure I'll switch to a calorie surplus around August/September to try and build more muscle. Thanks so much for your videos, they're so helpful and there isn't much quality content out there as to how to really train for skiing.

as a progression you can try to already do the next turn while jumping, i.e., jump facing in one direction, land facing the other direction, repeat. keeping the skis' tips in the snow makes this a bit easier. this way, you don't just get forward but forward diagonally, which is the direction you want for edging the ski.

@@stevenalbertwood9090 - ok, I watched the video again, and she clearly said "over the toe piece". And, remember, she's talking about initiation, not the entire turn. You reach "neutral" near the apex of the turn, if you are doing it correctly. But we should definitely be driving forward at the beginning of the turn so that we begin the turn with more pressure on the tips of the skis. This will both allow for the ski to flex earlier in the turn and also give more speed control through the arc of the turn because the ski engages with the snow more towards the top of the turn. Give it a try, and see if you can feel the difference. Here's the link to where she is talking about this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIi0iIOBf8R-qacsi=WgFv-F0qIwDHXOeS&t=144

Sorry girl but in my racing experience you are talking about rail riding not carving. A carve is the flexing of the ski when it is set on edge and can involve a slight skiding aspect for control. Between the carving part of the turn is the unweighted transition. When running gates we search for the perfect carve but it often has to be sacrificed to conform to the terrain and dynamics of the course, In slalom a carve is a short burst. In giant slalom it is a longer extended carve with a more powerfull rebound. Show carving when running gates. I see your slalom skis in the background

Depends on where you are in the world and whether you’re racing, instructing etc. That’s one problem in skiing is we don’t have common terminology. In my part of the world we call it carving just like she explained. Down under carving means something different and you have to throw “pure” in front of it to mean the same thing. To me, rail riding, sounds like park and ride with no dynamic input and not much ski flex.

She's talking about free skiing carving, not running gates. Running gates has it's own set of techniques. Most of the gates on a men's FIS GS course are set tighter than the minimum 30M turn radius of an FIS compliant GS ski preventing the competitors from making a pure carved turn plus they need to stivot in order to scrub speed. Even in FIS slalom it's a rare turn made with perfect carving. I watched Marco Odermatt training just last week and the last way I would describe his turns would be "carving". Oh, and he won on Saturday at Palisades and again yesterday making for 12 straight WC GS victories. When free skiing carving I sometimes carry my turn to the point that I'm actually going uphill in an effort to reduce speed and allow a seamless connection to my next pure carved turn. On a race course all that matters is how to get the lowest time. Two different worlds.

Also widths of skis ,a 98mm vs 68mm . 98mm works brilliantly in powder ,a 68mm works fantastic on fast groomers . The opposite generally doesn't work . 98mm on fast groomers are ok .however its a skidded . High edge angles on 98 mm could place alot of torque and sheering forces on the knee. Taking a zx10r to a motorcross track doesn't work however taking it around the track slowly can be done.
