Get Fit Fast: Three Killer Interval Workouts | Mountain Bike Training

[@Dan-hb7om]

At 62 years young and just getting back into MTB riding after a 25 year layoff. I love this channel! I am also a big fan of Eminem! Keep up the great work guys!

[@N1xon45]

Thank you for the content! I went through a pretty rough patch when I was 29 diagnosed with cancer(in remission), ended a ten year relationship and then left a steady job that I was feeling stagnant in and I really let my health go. I got a nice Hardtail a couple weeks ago and I have been trying to ride 2x a day every day. It's incredible to feel my body come alive again and to feel the pleasure of getting a tiny bit fitter every time I get on the bike. It's hard and I'm in terrible shape but it's a start. I am so thankful to content creators like you that have helped so much with tips and advice!

[@tuetis]

I love how you guys encourage HIIT training. It's the most effective exercise and you guys are freaking awesome!!

[@lukederose2621]

I love your videos, they are the reason i go riding. Keep up the great videos.

[@leonruben632]

Forwago program helped me not just to build a better-looking body, but to feel healthier and to have more energy. I wanted to share this because I think more people should find out about this amazing program. Thank you, Forwago!

[@vinceelliott9780]

Defo gonna try these my dood!

[@hawkeye7862]

I'm going to start doing these, I want to enter enduro soon! My ability on a bike is good but my fitness is poor ☹️

[@kathywathy8147]

Hey! It's been 3 years, how you doing?

[@silvio1901]

@@kathywathy8147 just wondering too

[@alabaster4263]

4 years now are you a pro yet?

[@catto3458]

No uphill = no downhill so this video will help a lot

[@settit7030]

Scotty, how many times has the Shapeshifter failed on that Strive?

[@michelebellosi3692]

Scott Tomassetti my shapeshifter failed 4 or 5 times man

[@settit7030]

Michele Bellosi have you received a 2016 version? if so, has it resolved the problem?

[@michelebellosi3692]

Scott Tomassetti I ve got a 2015 strive 6.0 and my shapeshifter got fixed three times. the guy from canyon said now is good and then failed again. But the problem is that it doesn't keep the pressure and the line gets loose after 3 rides or 2 .

[@gmbn]

Actually I am still on the original one! No problems what so ever, look after it and maintain my bikes thoroughly!

[@settit7030]

Global Mountain Bike Network Scotty, did you service the Shapeshifter? if so, how and could you do a GMBN How To Video? Thanks

[@1275porsche]

Any good apps to time these intervals ?

[@jacksonlaw3168]

What kind of slope do you recommend for these exercises? just whatever road we have near our trails or should i look for a certain steepness

[@CMOOREtbay]

Ya man!

What's the first song?

[@sharonpenderis4666]

What gear are you in when you do the intervals. It looks like you are in an easy gear. Do you ever do it in a harder gear and what is the reason for this.

[@TheElise517]

EMINEMMM. YESSSSS

[@MattCardwell]

I don’t want you to get injured so we’ll do a warm up. From cold, go as hard as you can for 30 seconds. Definitely won’t get hurt.

[@framagni]

No Pain, No Gain

[@bencio2694]

do you use full face helmet while not filming a video?

[@SK-mc7uw]

bencio I don't think so, they've mentioned that they only use them for downhill

[@suryavanamali3394]

How would you work this into a regular workout routine? Could I do these in the morning and then hit the gym the same evening for strength training? Or do I have to recover for the rest of the day?

[@gibso9395]

Surya Vanamali don't mix both workouts in the same plan, all that stress will run your body down to the floor in no time. Try to hit the gym during your base training or long slow ride season, and work on this later on as your race or season gets closer to sharpen up your fitness according to your event demands.

[@guyanagold4869]

Are these 3 exercises to be done all in one session ? How often should you do them?

[@CanIHasThisName]

Yes and no. Thing is, you can and you don't have to. The point of intervals is to get used to the effort spikes, as well as getting the ability to produce effort even when not fully recovered and in a nutshell, the intervals can be anything, as long as it challenges you physically - 10 seconds on-off, 1 minute on-off, 3 minutes on 30 second full-on 1 minute off... The key is in introducing variety. Once you get used to a certain type of exercise, it's really easy to just keep standing still and not progressing any further. It's also important to do your base miles and keep mixing things up. And a hefty climb every once in a while is also nice. As with all exercises, do them as often as you want and can. If you're not training for a race, it's all about helping yourself to having more fun on the bike when riding normally.

[@N_Frouin]

Hi there, actually, how do you perform the ON intervals ? Do you pedal quick and work on velocity or slower with a strong stoke ?

[@CanIHasThisName]

Niki Kite The ON portion can be either a 100% effort, or more of a 80-90% effort. Generally, shorter the interval, the higher the effort. The correct way of riding is pedalling faster, rather than harder. It's easier on your knees and also more efficient on long rides. If you want to improve strength, you can either do intervals while climbing, or you can go accelerating at the highest gear - in a nutshell, shift to your hardest gear ratio, slow down to nearly 0 speed, then accelerate as fast as you can to 20km/h while seated, slow down again, repeat. Do this only at the end of the ride. Also, intervals are best done in terrain, but it may be hard to find a good route for doing it.

[@gmbn]

Broken up across a week or two, they are all individual workouts so to be done one at a time. Unless you are seriously fit we probably wouldn't recomend doing interval sessions more than twice a week with them being well spaced apart...

[@Kengouru]

Hahahaa!!! I just read this after doing them all in one session twice this week and almost dropping dead on the trail yesterday! I was thinking I must be seriously unfit! A little relief there!

[@MsMadwilly78]

Are these suppose to be in one day?

[@ucdengboss]

These all have interval "work" times between 10s and 1 minute. All pretty short. What about longer intervals like 6X5mins in Z5 w 2-3 min recovery between or 4X8mins in Z4 w 3 mins recovery between or 3X15mins or 2X20mins SST w a good 10 mins+ between. Do these have their place in XC MTB training?

[@gibso9395]

Vincent Bossi of course it all comes down to the track or race your're trying to train for. This are usually for XCO and DH disciplines lots of power in very short efforts repeated over & over again

[@rynhardttruter7938]

Should you combine these 3 exercises into one workout, or do them separately on different days?

[@gibso9395]

Not a good idea. It's best to do each workout in separate days to mix it up a little bit. Try to put a couple of recovery or easy spin days in between each one of these drill sessions, so no more than 2 or 3 per week. These are also best applied during a specific training block prior to your event, if they match the demands of that track of course XC, XCO etc.

[@shanelennon6584]

How often would u recommend to do these intervals to notice a good difference in your fitness

[@gibso9395]

LENNON MTB 2 to 3 times a week tops. Depending on your fitness level. If your relatively new on this I would do 2 at the most per week not example mondays and Thursdays, and cut it in half of what this video specifies if they feel too hard to complete them. And as you get fitter keep building em longer with more repetitions to your specific goal

[@jancoduplooy3126]

#askgmbn How do you time your self if you do this mtb intervals

[@alanriddell833]

I suspect video soon on mtb computer / GPS tech :P Ever tried strapping a casio to your handle bars :)

[@mamtaroy8752]

Half year ago I started using Forwago and I was so impressed that I recommended it to 2 of my best friends. I really enjoy how the personalized plans help me not just to reach my goals, but instead to enjoy while moving forward to my goals.

[@hippyhero2424]

Keeping time seems like it would distract from putting in all the effort you can. How do you keep time without having to think about it?

[@sp00n]

Got me wondering too. Counting down from 10 or 30 seems while sprinting is okayish, I've done it on my trainer, but that pyramid thing... seems like you need a watch or a bike computer that supports these kind of things.

[@leoherran3013]

If you bike with your phone there are some apps to do intervals.

[@gmbn]

Get yourself an interval timer, it gives you an alarm when to stop and start!

[@justinf6758]

Really have been scraping for ideas the past few months. Maybe some changes need to be made

[@iigtracingii8790]

Are you supposed to do all 3 in one day or do them over a week or an other schedule?

[@harrydenness3473]

Over a week

[@shotbylukeb]

hey gmbn are there any team jerseys for kids 140 cm - 150cm

How did you do everything

[@muffinmansk8447]

can I do these on my exercise bike at home?

[@gmbn]

Definitely!

[@quetzalcoatl6626]

#askgmbn will I raise the gears again while doing the minute efforts?

[@gibso9395]

Mico Usana keep the same effort as steady as possible throughout each interval. So don't start too hard to avoid running out of gas by only your second interval

[@YourNickIsTaken]

Stretching!

[@Ghrostillo]

Faster!

[@ryansweeney6392]

Hi

wow, i love listening to eminem as well :P

[@Mark-Huigen]

Those dirty thirty's just one set of 5 reps?

[@MTBdropIN]

Mark Huigen yikes man holy poop

[@gmbn]

You can do as many sets as you want but we'd say go with one to two and see how you fair...

[@eloscilatore]

if I don't have long enough climb?

[@hairypaulmm7wab195]

If you only have a short section to climb, do it more than once to make it as long as you need :-)

[@eloscilatore]

yes, but then you cannot keep resting times, because you have to ride down for longer

[@maxsmith3335]

Overly structured training is not something that I enjoy. It takes the “fun” out of riding my bike. In place of structured intervals I will go hit some single track loops at race pace/race distance.
