Nick Bare NEEDS a Netflix series

[@joeyjkim]

Nick's use of words to create a team atmosphere is very smartly curated. From his preparation phases to his races like Leadville, he never uses terms like "Me" or "I," He always uses words like "BPN Team" and "We." He knows and credits his support system very well, and it seems like people at BPN and viewers on this platform notice and respect him for it

[@theepikaanandadevan8308]

Idk if this comment was so smartly though 😭

[@85parrot]

i don't like that he doesn't give credit to other athletes though. it's all about him and his relatively mediocre sports achievement - you'd think he'd won the events rather than coming mid to low range in the results. his cycling ability is pretty poor, his running ability is good amateur but not great. he does well and he's dedicated but he's not doing anything ground breaking or even above a local club athlete.

[@user-om4qe5tz3c]

I have my first half coming up in a 25 days. The most I have done is 10 mles a couple of weeks ago. I appreciate all the info and tips here. Still in my first year of running at the age of 42.... NEVER GONNA STOP

[@commonkingslifts]

Good luck with the half!

[@toddself5838]

Long run 1 time a week, slow down and log the miles without worrying about time. It'll add up.

[@tnaft9648]

Could you share your Garmin VO2 max and lactate threshold numbers?? Would be cool to see a comparison to see how accurate garmin is!

[@jakemartinez1354]

Just telling you now it’s super inaccurate 😂

[@Roger-il8iw]

@@jakemartinez1354 Garmin has been shown in studies to be extremely accurate on vo2 max.

[@jakemartinez1354]

@@Roger-il8iw you can always tell who the Garmin rep is.

[@TheBowman5]

@@Roger-il8iw Wrong.

[@Roger-il8iw]

@@TheBowman5 lol. False. I find people usually claim Garmin is off, because they are embarrassed how low their actual vo2max is. Remember, Garmin has an advantage of constant readings 24 hours a day. Garmin is shown in neutral studies to be over 95% accurate. Even the treadmill test can have less accurate results because of human error.

[@mattnielsen5045]

[@ernstand1185]

Would be cool if you could add the kilometer pace beside your mile pace

[@michaelhardie9193]

I'd be curious to know how far off the Garmin Threshold test with the HR chest strap was to the lab. For those of us without access to a lab or cost prohibitive

[@jameson6537]

I’m just making an assumption but I feel as if the readily available consumer devices that many of us have now a-days can be relatively accurate. I think the difference falls with in the abilities for those targeted companies and professions to be able to analyze that information and present it in a way that their clients can understand and significantly benefit from. I know it varies significantly per person, but this type of work and info is amazing to me. I’m extremely thankful for the direction this channel is going!

[@paulop3730]

Yes, and differences in VO2 Max.

[@jiridvorak]

got 55 VOmax in laboratory, 60 on Garmin Fenix 6 with starp. So about 10% difference.

[@gabec9529]

Love the longer videos!! Great to watch when I am finishing some work up!

[@stripesdrummin]

your videos keep getting better. Love seeing your progress you continue to make in your personal life and with your company. You keep helping and inspiring others. myself included, coming off knee surgery from last week.

[@coltongeil4401]

Great video! Always inspirational to see the running clips and training philosophies, but this was a phenomenal source of knowledge to utilize and consider when it comes to my own running!

[@galtuesdat]

Phenomenal explanations with regards to muscle strengthening and imbalances! Thank you!

[@UCpUFrzJjDCFJGw0qa-kJ9aQ]

[@jameson6537]

This information you guys are utilizing but also presenting to your viewers is so clutch! I’m incredibly intrigued by RunLab as I feel I could greatly benefit from some run/form/mechanics analysis!

[@neilcamm4339]

I’m curious what your Vo2Max says on your Garmin?

[@imdoc7872]

The best thing that I’ve done to get faster and run longer threshold runs is to run longer and more frequent recovery pace sessions.

[@allybexvlogs2937]

Born for this is such a great song to run to!

[@december25guy]

@nickbare thanks for explaining the science in lactate threshold and V02 max! And showing that easy runs done over a period of time build the body up and get it ready for anaerobic speed. We’d love to know how your V02 max from the lab compared to what your watch said. Thanks for sharing this journey with us!

[@zacsutcliffe]

Hi Nick, Huge fan. I was wondering what your VO2 Max looks like now that you have finished the marathon compared to when you filmed this video? I am running in the Mountains 2 Beach Marathon in Ventura California this weekend and have been using your Marathon Prep series to structure some of my training / nutrition / recovery. Thanks!

[@justintroutman]

Love love love this content! This is the kind of stuff I nerd out on. Can you explain the difference in 5k race pace and tempo pace?

[@leslie7922]

I think race pace for 5k is above tempo. My tempo would be around 4:20 but I race 5km at 3:45

[@gallagherii]

5K pace is way faster that tempo pace. For a trained person tempo pace would be between 10K-15K race pace. For an elite athlete, close to HM (1 hour of sustained effort).

[@benjamin.kelley]

"God damn Nick, that hurt". Jeff is a great guy. Got to meet him at the Go One More Marathon.

[@oliveirammayara]

Conteúdo excepcional!!

[@GregoryCastellani]

Great insight as always! Threshold pace based on lactate is the best way to set your training paces and was on point, Vo2max was estimated so it’s not a precise data, you should do the test with the proper mask to know exactly your value. Regarding Training you only need threshold based on lactate but for your own flex and to see what is your maximum power/horse power should be good to do a proper vo2max test at your peak, for sure the number will be above that 59💪

[@Overcomertwo]

Thanks man, you keep pushing me to something incredible, go ahead!

[@optimizeperformance]

Awesome job, Nick!!! Absolutely killed the testing and onto great things!

[@kboot6]

Hey Nic, interested to see what your results were for your Vo2 Max, had you done a comparison against the garmin test through your watch, and how did your heart rate zones differ from this test from where you were before! Thanks man!

Hey Nick and the BPN team, why did you choose the Buffalo Marathon? I went to college there and love the city, just curious on the choice.

[@Ameister95]

When you do walking lunges why do you step out to the side instead of straight forward? What is the emphasis there?

[@melissa7122]

Hey nick, any chance you could talk more about the leg length difference and 1 sided hip tightness. Curious how your going about addressing those issues. I've noticed my right femur is slightly longer than the left in workouts/mobility work lately, as well my right hip is tighter than the left in assessments of movements. Still figuring out what works for me

[@joshjohnson9406]

Is lactic acid threshold more or less proportional to VO2 max?

4:45 Walks into treadmill room with shirt on .... suddenly (though not surprising) shirt is off! But by god I was shocked and amazed at 17:45 that he actually kept his shirt on (even his jacket) ... must have been really cold! - Note: plenty of elite athletes have imbalanced running gaits (both men and women) but they are still capable of running low 2H marathons. They have never felt the need to fix it and even if they did, it wouldn't necessarily equate to faster times.
