You need to do an interview with Backwards Hat Dylan

I watched an interesting ergometer test of a national rowing team athlete who was so burnt out from overtraining he took 6 months off with zero testing. He did the test as a benchmark for re entering training and had the best result he’d ever achieved. He went on to be the stroke for an 8 that won an Olympic gold medal.

Who was the rower? I rowed in college and suffered from burnout and find this fascinating.

@JackMott 2 ай бұрын

i imagine 6 months off was not entirely off but just training chill

I could listen to gravel tire talk from now until I’m turned into ash when the nukes hit. I think even my ash would want to hear gravel tire talk. 🤤

The further evolution of Unbound will be with teams and team tactics. A couple riders up the road? Put a domestique or two on the front to bring them back.

@cjohnson3836 2 ай бұрын

Ehhh. I think any more than a couple teammates will end up being logistically unfeasible. There's just too many selections in the race and too much stochasticity.

Many athletes had their best results of their careers during pandemics when they weren't training as hard as they were used to. There's a fine line between hard training and overtraining, and top athletes tend to lean towards the later.

Coincidentally when drug testing was basically non-existent.

I think that's why Jonas hit his best numbers ever in this year's Tour. The enforced time off earlier in the year probably allowed the body some recovery time he didn't know he needed.

Heat management and training seems like a great place to seek gains. Just as the texture of bodysuits is being optimized for aero I think there a lot of potential gains in the surface texture of the bike and tires.

This is an interesting conversation I had with one of the team at core heat sensors. Be interested to hear your thoughts on it kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHbMhaWJhq6Xa8Usi=0zpx2F9qFFB5KhGz

I actually sent that theory to the bonk bro podcast for Dylan to comment. I believe his sickness and forced long rest before unbound was the key to his success.

I was talking to a young Emporia native a day or two before the race this year and Dylan's name came up - he said essentially that his videos are fun but he never finishes near the top 😀And this kid has won the SS category in the past ... way to vindicate yourself Dylan!

@xuchenglin6256 2 ай бұрын

The "heat as altitude" part probably is wrong. You can't substitute altitude with heat. With altitude you gain red blood cell as a response to oxygen depletion, basically it's like taking EPO but legally. However with heat you get none. You just adapt to sweat more, and maybe some blood volume increase but not the red blood cell that actually matters. Your hearts beats faster at the same effort or even the same RPE, you might get more used to an elevated heart rate but that's it. Depends on your training status you might get more training of the heart itself as a muscle that is working harder, but more likely you'll risk detraining because your overall intensity would decrease. Even with real altitude you risk that too, there are some very good scientific literatures about "live low train high vs. live high train high vs. live high train low vs live low train low". And the results are very interesting that the best approach is actually live high train low -- you train at sea level at your full capacity, take a lift or a car to altitude (2000m above) to sleep to get the legal dose of altitude EPO, repeat. Probably you guys are not very often exposed to extreme altitude and extreme heat, so you think they are similar. No they are not. Heat adaptation is critical especially if you race/training in the heat but it's nothing like the altitude.

I haven't read about heat training, but I guess heat training would acclimatise body more thus allowing the heart to pump less ? Thus saving energy . Heat in general as in a higher body temperature is very debilitating to whole body requiring heart and other organs to work harder . So my guess heat training can save the body energy and also reduce the inflammation damage to body on race day. . I think I've seen the riders wear ice pack vests after a racing.

@86309 2 ай бұрын

Dylan said - raising blood volume.

@JackMott 2 ай бұрын

heat raises blood volume and then red blood cells follow, a relatively newly understood phenomenon being leveraged more often now. difficult to leverage as heat also reduces intensity so working it into overall training program takes care of

@stoneysanders628 2 ай бұрын

I would say Keegan and Matt Beers were overcooked for Unbound. Maybe they found their upper limit for volume?

@markmiller4414 2 ай бұрын

Regarding heat...I heard somewhere that a lot of the in-lab human performance testing on cyclists in the 70s and 80s were likely heat-limited because they were not providing sufficient cooling of the athletes being tested. If that is true, doesn't that make a lot of the research results of that era questionable?
