Full Day || High Intensity Training

[@Tothesatneptomorrow]

Incredible. This one had it all- the rawness, the wisdom, the intensity, the music. One of the best uploads to date!!

[@WTQ2012]

Exactly is brilliant

[@christianweiss4130]

I am not much into swimming myself, but this Swim Trainer is something else. His Attitude, his motivational words on the Athlets... really hypes me up. BIG UP man, thats the kind of Coach we all need in our life, you are doing a great job man!!!!!

[@jonesmithavery7]

This may be my favorite video from Lionel yet. Great vibes all around

[@EricGlenn]

This is one of my top favorite videos you've produced of Lionel. Fun to watch and learn.

[@dwahearn]

Love the long form. Can't get enough. Keep up the great work you 2. Can't wait for Montreal

[@benbos1925]

Finally finally🎉🎉 someone says that about HR. ❤❤ I have always felt that. Yes power is a constant and exact. But the HR is telling you something about the inpact of that output on your Body. Even before and after the stressor.

Bravo!!! Love It! I do my track workouts at Ironridge HS when I’m in Tucson/Oro Valley. Maybe I’ll see the Lion training there sometime.🦁 #NoLimits

[@AnthonyDeLorenzo]

What an absolute banger video!!! Gotta say, Coach Justin steals the show every time!

[@Kevgti5]

He looks like such a cool coach to be around. That special balance of getting you to work crazy hard but feeling like you're doing great. Was the highlight for me for sure

[@peterblanchard4109]

Man I've missed the training videos. Love this content wish we got more of it.

[@sergiogomes8035]

Lionel is so focus, he start swim from the scratch and now 1:12/100M 😮 is really good, especial for someone so strong with big legs. It is very impressive. Keep going, you will grab some winnings this year 💪🏼

The best training video on whole YT. Thanks Lionel!

Doesn’t matter what your sport is this guys effort is pure motivation

[@tomcogo2516]

Those close up shots in the pool during the intro are some top notch cinemathography, love it

[@teodorbretvold248]

Maybe the best and most important video to date. This truly had it all. Intensity, humanity, mood, wisdom, fight! Exactly what we all needed! We still believe in you Lionel!

[@andrewmetcalfe9898]

49:30 - from my perspective what was missing last year was a whole month off after St George. By May 2022 you’d done effectively 15 months with little more than super short, ‘mid season’ type breaks (and you’d done 6 IM in the back half of that block). You needed to completely reboot the system.

[@haroldurban8088]

after a big training day, is always great see a video like this. it gave motivation for the next day. thank you.

[@victorvidotto8293]

absolutely AMAZING vídeo! i had a 2h indoor easy bike ride and loved watching this. the music in the sessions part was lovely as well. thanks lionel and talbot!

[@WTQ2012]

Love the concept of this video!!! The best on YT!! Lionel think about full workout session video for your fans. No talking only yellow numbers and music with some noise of the background (bike, etc). This will be something new in triathlete training sessions

[@kurtphillips3607]

Old school Lionel, gets me fired up! Great video. Back to his roots of videos just flat getting after it.

[@smegsmeg1872]

This is a great length to the video. I workout everyday and feel hr long vids are perfect for that. Motivation, instructional, entertaining.....thanks

[@andrewmetcalfe9898]

22 minutes - I am so glad to see Lionel sticking with his swim coach at least. i love that session; it resembles my ‘go to’ workout that Ive used for years (except I swim 200M with flippers in between 500M threshold efforts instead of sitting around for 90 seconds [but I don’t do lactate or Hr testing between sets, so there is that]). Lionel doesn’t have a fitness or strength impediment with swimming - it purely bio mechanical, and this coach understands ‘feel’ for the water - and teaching it to adults.

[@andrewmetcalfe9898]

23:21 - righto, straight away: if Lionel can swim 1:13 pace in the pool for his 500m threshold reps, there is no reason - zip, zero, zilch - for him to not be able to swim with the Detlev group this season. Which is what he rightly remarked after Kona is what is required for him to contend for the big titles (same goes for Skipper, Wurf, Chavalier as well).

[@mattkoorey592]

[@andrewmetcalfe9898]

@@mattkoorey592 they said 500M a few times. The Aquabears pool seems to be a specially made private facility owned and run by an ex pat South African. So maybe he actually went with a proper 25m pool … I’ve seen Lionel talk about sets in metres, not yards, when swimming there in the past as well … who knows though

[@foundfoundfound1]

everyone at the élite level trains hard. but there’s an especial honesty about sanders’ training: he makes it look as hard as it really is. this is perhaps why he inspires so many others.

[@Claedicus]

The bike workout got me into the video, the rest was classic Lionel, keep it up man.

[@pro-fondeurs]

Time passes and the more and more videos of Lionel I watch the more I get amazed or annoyed by some things that never change: first, one of the things that never change is how he is always rethinking his approch to training, preparation, and methods. At one point, consistency over time his key -and that does not mean one but many years. Also, it is fascinating to see a guy ready to make whatever it takes to succeed (like living where he has access to what he needs to train), but who keeps preparing himself for open-water swim by running in the pool, getting ready for TT on roads by biking on a trainer -oh, well, ok: now on rollers!-, and choosing a track for running intervals when his races will be on pavement ! We all know how good the guy his. But would he not be better prepared if he did at least some (let's say half) of his swim in a river or lake, and some key sessions on the bike outside. ?

[@gengar678]

Unfortunately this way there is never a clear correlation between performance and training, since there is too many variety as you say. Every coach knows that you need more than half a season to draw any conclusions about your approach…unfortunately

[@SandyWhisker]

I think more open water swimming is a great point.

[@quengmingmeow]

I’m a LS fan for life and death, but I couldn’t agree more. Where’s the massive open water sessions over and over again? Are these massive VO2 max sessions actually creating gains and worth the recovery trade offs? What is the real delta between VO2 max run pace and LT pace? Maybe LT pace is where the real gains lie at this point in his career.

[@199801314]

And he keeps changing coach, why? The guys don't have time to settle and he already fires them. I don't understand, but one thing is for sure, we will see one of those videos again blasting everything and blaming himself for the lack of coach

[@gengar678]

Deep down he is not so determined to win. If he was he would do what would give him best chances to achieve that. Which he obviously is not doing. I think at the base he is more addicted to the fighting, the suffering during the training, the constant battle. Whatever it is, all the other atlethes are not half as interesting to follow.

[@Gavinnations]

Wow what a backdrop for running! This is super cool to see as I am training for my first triathlon

[@M3james16]

Great video Talbot. One of the best yet! Love the music

[@timvanmonero2720]

so much respect for this guy. incredible insights. thanks.

[@gtkona1608]

And he swims with his shoulders flat in the water. Consequently he has a very wide and low left shoulder recovery which results in very bent knee during his kick to compensate. .

[@johngmcdonnell]

Lionel this is amazing. You are producing Lactate. there's no doubt but you are re-using the lactate as a fuel source as you produce it. This is good. you will not loose because of this. you will benefit from it once you continue to understand lactate usage in the system,

[@seanchin]

so glad the green bike is still alive!

[@TriDaddy]

For competitve draft legal racing I've learned its importation to focus on the swim - Getting out of the water is critical for being in the correct bike pack. 9 time out of 10 there is no movement in the bike packs... if someone was to bridge then almost never do they have a great run preformance. Running is critical. You can almost sort the run splits to determine final placing. Also make sure your T1 is perfect.. That could hold you back from being in the first draft pack on the bikes.
