no wonder Noah likes where he trained, its literally got an orange filter on it

[@lwyatt6264]

Damn that is a stacked training group. Noah Lyles, Josephus Lyles, and I think Jareem Richards and Wade Van Neikerk.

[@bpswank429]

You also forgot Michael Brown ! Dude is a legit beast 🔥

This really is insane that you are doing this. Literally who else is doing anything remotely close to this? Especially on their own. I hope you get sponsors for videos like this. Want to see videos from your channel like twice a week. Really

[@actual_random]

Cravon Gillepsie, although his production quality is slightly worse its less like docs and more chill like vlogs and tips.

[@Ximme]

@@actual_random Mathias Hove Johansen

[@actual_random]

@@Ximme True, hes been making videos for years. He has a different style of video, he leans even more so towards the vloggy content you don't see his coaches and rarely see him training with others, he films the majority of it himself. Hes also not at the elite, global championship level. So that's why i mentioned Cravons series because its probably the closest thing to Noahs.

[@notyouraveragejoe2777]

All the top pro sprinters they just don’t show what they do

What you said at 8:15... wow i didn't know that. I always sit down when im tired during the workout... i'll change that! Thanks Noah :)

[@thejoshuathomas]

So many gems in this episode. The reminder to always be moving to get through a workout is gold. I started doing 5x60m hill sprints a few weeks back, and working on proper warmup, technique, consistency, and recovery has been key in seeing results. All the best to you and continued success, Noah. I'm excited for what your journey has in store. 👊🏾

Hi Noah, please be careful with the "chiropractor protein" convo.... because the OLDER AN ATHELETE GETS THE MORE PROTEIN ONE WILL NEED FOR MUSCLES AND INTERNAL ORGANS TO HEAL! Fact. Wishing you and the crew the best! Keep going!💪🏾💚

[@tacanuva15]

I’m sure him and his team are well informed. And it is our job to do our own research because all of us have different bodies that develop in different ways.

[@ManWhoKnewTooLittle]

@@tacanuva15 that does not mean that the team is knowledgeable. Going to a chiropractor is red alert. They are charlatans who can fuck you up in a long run.

[@naveenperera1862]

I really appreciate this and did enjoyed these video more than almost anything tbh! Is there any way possible for you to give us insights about these gym sessions and what period you do it in? Like in the grassroot ep.1 gym session do you do that in endurance or speed endurance period? And like do you do this kind of gym session is speed training period likewise. I maybe 100% wrong right now, I just want some insights to plan my own training tbh. Thanks in advance Noah!

[@adventuren3623]

Hey Noah, when you were taking about people having strong muscles, but the muscles don't seem to be firing. Are you familiar with AMIT (Advanced Muscle Integration Technique)? It is used on several professional athletes to reactivate muscle that are "turned off" and not firing.

[@alexodutona8758]

Hello Noah, please I have a very important question. Did you hit the gym immediately after track practice or is it another timeline entirely on that same day? Perhaps in the evening?

[@noahlyles18]

it depends, sometimes it's back to back or sometimes I'll grab a smoothie lol

[@shadowracer3997]

What brand is that sled and name?

[@AsianThunder0]

It is actually not true that you can only absorb so much protein at a sitting. It used to be thought that you can only absorb about 30g of protein at a sitting, but this is based on an old study. A much more recent study shows we can actually absorb much more protein than previously thought, we're talking 100g. I'm not saying you should eat that much but it's the most up to date research. Gotta get you Gold fam.

Genetics don’t work that way

[@kchuen]

Protein thing is kinda a myth. I mean as long as you don't exceed 60g per intake. And if it's organic meat and stuff, there's not a lot of studies on it. As long as you take them in 3 or more intakes, it almost doesn't matter at all.
