The HARDEST Training Week of My Life

[@appealguy]

Finally, episode three arrives! Mom and I were afraid we had lost you in the outback! Love,Dad

[@wyattjoshua05]

@appealguy same here, what a shame that would be. I Haven't got an Autograph Yet!

[@TimothyBuhler]

your not his dad!

[@seatownfan]

​@@TimothyBuhlerYes he is.

[@jenklau]

@@TimothyBuhler@appealguy is Ari's real dad. We're not sure who his mom is 😂🤣

[@tinygorillacake]

Ari has turned into a kangaroo. No comin' back now. Love, Australia

[@reznorweist6267]

I remember when you were just the random face that got added to some athlete special videos over COVID, I've loved following your progress in the years since and this Australia segment has been especially enjoyable, very excited to see what's still to come in this training cycle

[@andrewmetcalfe9898]

12:43 - what I reckon is happening is that because (1) you have committed to swimming fast at the beginning of the rep and (2) you are already carrying fatigue BUT (3) are getting specifically physiologically fitter in the water THEN your body is adjusting by relaxing through the stroke - HENCE getting more efficient and THUS faster for the whole of that rep. Well done, the benefits of uncle Chop Chop’s HARDEN the FUUCK UP Aussie training method, lol.

[@jimmybarlet8849]

The track at 02:40 goes insanely hard!!!!! 🔥

[@RustyRacer]

Yeah Veronicas

[@AsianSensation]

This series has been so epic

[@honebeadsmith5937]

Loved this vid Ari and seeing the comradery between you Penny, and Chloe. Looking forward to the next episode. Best of luck to the 3 of you as you all continue your journey in the triathlon world. Always grateful to get a glimpse of what you are going through.

[@neilsonsmilk]

I honestly look forward to every one of your videos, but the Australian method has me refreshing my youtube hoping for each new weekly update. Awesome to see how well things are going and feeling inspired to start my own journey in triathlon!

[@tinygorillacake]

That Goggins impersonation needs to be made into a Short 😂

[@wk633]

"You have to swim harder for longer" Eddy Merckx said the key to climbing was to pedal fast in a big gear. (or something to that effect)

[@aquanuggets]

5:49 can your next series be about triathletes learning how to mow a lawn.

[@robertellis4824]

Can't believe I'm watching you run and ride around my town after watching you for years. That road surface up Mt Warrenheip is World Class. I believe Mona's fastest fartlek session on the lake he went through the full lap between 17.30-17.40.

[@archmdz]

Comments like this are crazy. Social media can drive us apart but it can also bring us together. I love Ballarat! Mona did the full lap in around 16 minutes actually is what I was told. 2:40/km on that slippery gravel surface.

[@Aliceonwheels]

Love this series! Seems like a great training group. Love seeing the ladies rock it too.

[@geoffbadger9597]

Great to see things are going so well for you Ari. Always enjoy watching you run. The run appeared as though you were "muscling" it out a bit more, but that could have just been the camera angle as well. Swim looks to be improving and able to swim on Chloe's feet is a very good sign. I know you are swimming at absolutely near max, but the one thing I see is that Chloe appears just a touch more relaxed in her stroke. I think with a couple more 40k+ weeks you are going to start appearing more relaxed at the same swim speed. Looking forward to seeing the returns from this big training camp. Stay healthy.

[@donaldlamarche9886]

Way to grind Ari. Really rooting for you this year. Kick some ass!

[@72charman]

Looking stronger Ari! Love following your progress

[@aregul12]

This series is so goated ari

[@jangriesel5056]

I love this series - you should keep the look of your thumbnail the same throughout, I almost missed this one. Looking forward to the rest.

[@kaoserdnase]

Your muscle tone and form are improving so much

[@decoyr6122]

welcome to the aus world of swimming bro hahah glad you smashed out a good camp here. hope to see more of you in Oz

[@KCiarlelli]

I'm excited to see you race this year and follow the content. Keep it up Ari!

[@NakedNoodles1]

Veronica’s remix at 2:40? 😅

[@HashBrownDoyler]

yo that The Veronicas mix goes hard LETSSS GOOOOOO

[@Lovetrilife]

The best series yet, you know the goat trained in Noosa Australia for many years. Glad you came to Aus to learn the training. Good luck with taking this theory back to USA and keep it up. Think a professional swimmers squad might help in the USA. 😊

[@10789macca]

If you want to experience the best of triathlon in Australia, go over to Perth WA and the South West, Busselton, home of the Ironman.

[@dbo4506]

Best series on YT right now. Hundo 🫡

[@bcrruns1085]

Great series! Much respect for chasing your dreams👍

[@thomas_jean2294]

this is an awesome series

[@hamishrichardson896]

Loving this series man!

[@allenjenkins4807]

That surface is still better than the cinder track and community football field I train on.

[@72-vintage]

Nothing shouts out triathletes like the length of that front grass….. 😂😂😂

[@Justin_253]

Keep em coming!

[@crayontom9687]

Great dance tune in the background 👍

[@joshuafoulds8107]

That is a really nice Sailfish wetsuit! Where can I get one of those?

[@troycollett8540]

Looks like you are putting the hard work in ari but enjoying the process

[@dianes.1909]

Run looks spot on Ari.

[@OrianIglesias]

Looking forward to it! 💪

[@DominikBlessing]

really like the soundtracks

[@karolina.321]

Jeezus, I'm training for my 10k and trying to figure out how to recover in-between all the sessions I want to do. There just doesn't seem to be enough time for recovery. Then I hear how many sessions you put into one week and I'm convinced - you're not human 😶 But its hella inspiring. Thanks for this.

[@seanwatson8831]

Tunes are awesome

[@andydabson5657]

I think your main struggle in swimming actually involves your inability to wear a cap correctly.

[@drym3943]

It really depends on the cap and head shape tho. But we pays hundreds to have an Aero skinsuit, WE should pay the same attention to a CAP that is representing 20% of front surface area. Swimmers are wearing special molded CAP during races for a reason.

[@andydabson5657]

I swam competitively for 10 years - No one I ever knew, age group-NCAAs, had custom swim cap molded to their head.@@drym3943

[@user-yl7lz1hm6r]

250th like! Your killing it Ari, keep it up!

[@GotDamBoi]

not a bad goggins impression. have you seen Dankcube's? he does a hella funny goggins lol

[@sirelegant2002]

Sick video

[@gusrallim]

wow your open water stroke is unrecognisable!

[@finnwilliams3945]

this series number 1 on the mvp ranking

[@hiddenpunk291]

Lol, Veronicas - nice one

[@DaleSavageAttorneyatLaw]

You don't get that respect from Australian athletes unless you're putting in the hard yards. Behind all the fun is an insane amount of hard work, can't wait to see the results from this down the road.

[@josephgschwartz]

You know that's actually pretty smart. If you pace yourself to be 30th out of the water you're going to be 30 out of the water. If that's not your goal then change your pace. Showing commitment early gives you a chance to succeed. Keep it up. Wahoo wah

[@freeflyesperance3392]

So many Australianisms haha I love it ❤

[@HSmasteryoda]

Its crazy how every Triathlete seems to be bad at swimming lol As a swimmer I focus on running and biking and swim once or twice a week because I've swam for 20 years competitively lol

[@Sparto91]

The Australian National Anthem joke hit hard! You’ve passed the citizenship test my friend

[@bigbattenberg]

Insanity, indeed.

[@MR-wh5wp]

A harder week than when you trained with Lionel? 😮

[@archmdz]

A lot harder than that. Learned a lot since then. Mainly about proper nutrition (thanks in part to Fuelin and Scott Tindal). If you sleep and fuel properly, you can sustain waaaay more volume and intensity.

[@MR-wh5wp]

@@archmdz do u think u could go back and train with Lionel again now and be ok?

[@sabretoothedplatypus2795]

Silly question: how many weeks are you there Ari?

[@TheDomLouis]

He mentioned this was week 3 of 8, so I'm guessing 8 total.

😮That seems kinda negative….. What id say to Ari Klau is great job, Keep on killing it!!!

Who is (are) the triathletes who train the hardest these days??

The sheilas seem to be a lovely bunch. Not a bogan amongst them. You've not spoken to blokes long enough to form an accurate judgement one way or tother 😜
