    Do you prefer climbing or riding the flats? Let us know down below 👇

      Question please. What would happen with you guys did the same on the climb as you did on the flat? Meaning, keep the same w/kg. Because the you did was obvious that she would be faster. Still wanna know what happens when you all keep the same w/kg on a climb. If you a video on that please take me to that. Big discussions on that on my cycling group. Need some light please :)

    Very helpful! I'd be interested in hearing you apply the Best Bike Split concept to the upcoming St George championship route so we can get a sense for how some of the competitors might be approaching the course.

    Glad I found this video. Answered a lot of questions that I've always wondered about.

    You should do FTP tests to see which presenter currently has the highest Power-to-weight ratio.

    I was 289lbs being of last year ,I currently 257.8lbs . I am way faster on the downhills,climbs and flats. I can actually attack up certain climbs with ease. I was struggling on the same hills . Every week is PRs .
    Want to lose 10- 18kgs more. Weight ratio does matter . But also include some weight training and burpees .

    14:00 Power to Weight Challenge? I believe you guys. The GIANT rusty chain behind you must keep your bikes absolutely safe. 🤣🤣🤣

    Would you say that this then boils down to course selection and pick the course that suits your natural physiology? I suspect that it’s comparatively harder for a smaller rider to get to the same FTP as that of a bigger rider - is that correct?

    What is his recommendation at the end for finding the bike courses?

  • @danielgibson654
    @danielgibson654 2 года назад +1

    I’m a smaller person which means I am always dropped on the flats. On my zwift races I would average around 4.2w/kg which just keeps me up to the c riders who average around 3.5w/kg.😢

      @@JwallzMTB in the end its just a matter of raw watts IMO. As a lighter rider, I always gets dropped on flats and downhills. W/KG is sort of useless. It's like high jump, it's not about jump as high over your own head as possible. It's about jump as high as possible :-)

      Probably preproduced this episode a few months ago. Go back on the Channel, they have Lanazrote videos out for the last few weeks. In WInter Lanzarote is a nice venue for training.

      Hi! @@martinlanz2944 We use lanzarote as a destination film lots of content in a small period and release them slowly, It allows us to keep a fresh feel to our vids! And a bit of sun is always nice too 👀
