The low cadence work will have been to build strength in the legs (i.e. to be able to accelerate faster), it's a common training technique in triathletes who don't have enough time to be on their bikes for hours on end. Just because they're training like that doesn't mean they'll race like it, if you don't change the physiological stress on your body then it'll adapt and you'll stop progressing, reducing the benefits of said training.
+The Vegan Swan Just cause Durianrider is lean and fit, doesnt mean his training is the best for everyone. Low cadence TRAINING is good for strength in the legs, not low cadence everywhere...
+The Vegan Swan obviously they didnt show every second of the ride, that would have been silly. And GCN commented earlier that they didnt follow the group that did low cadence work. Just enjoy the video instead of trying to rip it apart with all the mistakes.
+CTFU Cycling Tips They probably aren't eating an entire plate of potato wedges. The chef never claimed potato's were low carb. Eating low carb doesn't mean you have no carbs on your plate.
+Dan Lev there were 3 different groups of riders all doing different training!! GCN just followed the low carb training group, maybe some of you vegans should read a few comments before continually spouting about your diet and how superior you all are and STFU before you CTFU in future
Jeez, everything is either black or white with you lot. Low carb is not NO carb and low carb for these endurance athletes is still gonna be pretty damn high carb relatively speaking!
+alan hall are you going to tell me that your body turns to far as an energy source when it is depleted of carbs. please say yes so I can commence today's class
Yet again a great video being used as a battering ram ! Low carb for a pro cyclist is higher than a normal person and the low carb day was probably after a carb loaded dinner! Also pros train the body into a depleted state so it learns to push that bit further, the one that can go the deepest is normally the winner! Each to their own as the saying goes! Great stuff GCN keep them coming! ( this channel should get a TV slot!)🚴🚵
Crikey. I've never read the comments before. You do attract some special people. The videos just get better, professional, witty and informative. To be a complete creep I could only say if anything they need to be longer. I hope you've got some good classics stuff coming up, I can feel the stirring in my loins as late February approaches. Some more indoor training videos would be nice as well. Keep up the good work chaps.
I had an 8 speed 52/42 - 13/23 - It was too hard on the hills so I changed it to a 52/39 - 11-30, which made it easier. I now have a new bike with a compact setup.
Team Sky are soooooo professional. In every sense of the word. The racing, the PR, the preparation, every detail in their outfit, everything. Very polished. Very sanitized. Very not likeable. Where is the sense of adventure? the personality? I see executives on wheels.
mate you're completely wrong. they are TRAINING low carb not racing low carb. Durianrider is basically saying that no one can perform at their best low carb. None of these sky guys should ever dream of racing low carb because they'd all get dropped
Hey GCN, something that gets a brief mention in this show that I'd like to hear more about - the science of sleep in relation to training & recovery. Are post-ride daytime sleeps of any value? How long should you sleep over & above the normal 7 hours if you are doing endurance rides? Can you get a guru to tell us more? Ta
First, they don't do low carb training all the time. Second, low carb works for enhancing fat metabolism which save the high quality energy glycogen during races. It is vital for pro cyclist especially in tour
A lot of people misinterpreting the low carb thing, it's about training the body to efficient when low on fuel, the lower cadence is less aerobic and burns less fuel in the form of long and short chain carbs and more fuel in the form of slower burning fats and proteins so that you can burn all fuel sources efficiently, it also teaches your body to be efficient at the variety of cadences you'll have to encounter in a grand tour as they simply don't have the gear spread to spin 90 - 100 everywhere having big jumps in gear ratios when racing in a pack is a nightmare just ask anyone road racing with 1x setups,. This also teaches you how to suffer. so that when you race and have plenty of fuel available you are quite literally full of beans, energetic, and strong and able to push yourself harder cos your body and mind has learnt to dig deeper and burn whatever fuel is available as efficiently as possible . Train low, Race high. Pro racing puts a whole different level of stresses on the body compared to domestic style, a time trial during the week and a crit or a road race at the weekend does which is still probably more than most of people commenting on here are doing. PS yes I don't eat animal products as I know enough about nutrition to know I don't need to but I couldn't give rat's ass what other people eat as it's entirely up to others what they do with their bodies. All I'll say is watch The Road to Hell film and look at what they're eating pre-race and compare that to what today's pro riders are eating, it ain't more meat and less carbs that's for sure. Maybe ask Eddy Merckx how much quinoa, lentils beans, peas and nuts he used to eat as recovery food then ask how much of those the British Olympic and Sky team now eat and do a comparison.
@durianrider +DurianRider 's head will explode..."low-carb" AND "low-cadence" training mentioned in the same sentence (at around 03.50) !!!! Plus, just for good measure, another reference to "low-carb" by the chef (at around 06.57). Can't wait for his response :-)
+Didier Martins I hate too admit it. I try stopping myself but I keep going to watch their RUclips channel. I can't help myself, it like watching a human train wreck.
You people do realize that low carb doesn't mean no carb and that potatoes actually have quite low carb content compared to other staple foods? Pasta, rice both have more. Bread has significantly more. They are also complex carbs and have a lot of nutrients/minerals.
Interesting to know they were going low carb / low cadence on this particular day. Since the on-bike objective was a full has climb, one would think they would need to be carbed up and max cadence. Naturally, speculation that physiological data for ketosis under exertion plays a role in this day's training, with weight loss an added benefit.
Great video. This team look so smooth and professional. On another note, does anyone else wish the vegan zealots would stop turning every single mention of nutrition into a vegan propaganda thread? You don't dig on animal products - we get it! Good for you. We are all glad it works for you, sincerely. Now stop trying to convert everybody else. It's getting really tired.
people saying low carb with pictures of potatoes and corn. does the team normally eat so much carbs that their version of low carb is still relatively high carb? or was the food they displayed off limits to the riders? or are gcn deliberately trolling?
+La ne trolling? are you dumb? do you think their job is to make a comedy show vs durianrider and confuse the viewers? this channel are for people at all ages eager to learn more about cycling.
LMAO at all the low carb comments. They don't go low carb all day, only before & during the ride up to a point where they'll start taking on carbs and have them in their post ride meal. So yes, they will eat potatoes & rice. It's called nutrient timing. They are trying to get their bodies to burn fat for fuel during the low carb rides.
You burn more muscle without carbs.. So that makes no sense. Also, leaving out carbs won't make you burn more fat.. You need to eat less kcals to burn more fat. Kcals is the measurement for all macro's (kh, fat, prot) combined. So if you have 1000 kcals of carb, you burn the same amount of fat as to having 1000 kcals of fat (food), or even 1000 kcals of protein. Only difference is that protein is a horrible energy source since it's not directly converted to glyocen. Carbs are basically glycon, so that why it works faster. Fat has to convert first. But at the end of the day, the total amount of kcals depends how much you gain or burn off of your own body.
my thoughts on the low carb training are so that they can get their bodies used to running out of fuel and still have something left to give. obviously they will still ctfu when competing. much better than only ever doing high carb training and your body crashing when that last banana is used up.
+Free man please read some comments before you make stupid comments!! the training GCN was following was low carb training, there were 3 groups of Team SKY riders out that day, all doing different training, but all needing to be fed in the evening!! if you want to be picky maybe GCN shouldn't have shown what the other riders were eating that night?? derp
Assuming theres no happy ending with the massages? which brings me to ask about the ejaculation protocol, i.e are they allowed to or are they like boxers told dont do it and how many like boxers disobey the order and how do the riders feel about it, does it affect their performance?
I didn't see many smiles amongst the riders and for them its probably just another day at the office. I don't think cycling would be fun anymore when it turns into a job.
Low carb, low cadence. Surely they are trolling Harley. Or as someone else mentioned they could be using reverse psychology to get the opposition onto low-carb. On another note, I would watch all the product placement in the world so that they can then produce content like this. Great stuff guys.
Dan, if they use Training Peaks for their analytics, if the riders stats say that the rider needs a break, does the coaches allow for that or are they trying to get the most out of the training camp time?
+Frank M Coming back off the off season they have probably gained a little bit of weight and so this is how they shed it. I'm pretty sure durianrider only commented on being low carb for racing so I don't think anything here is going to send him into one of this rages...
+starovic89 My guess is probably its too cold for a Mojito but not too cold to use an Infinity. Or it could be also since the Protone is the Kask latest top of the line helmet, the sponsors are probably making them wear it to influence sales.
As usual, well presented and insightful video again boys, although Dan, considering the amount of time you spend on film why haven't you sorted out the mess of hair at the back of your head?
Just my thought's.....when you burn 4000 cal on a workout then another 2000 in your day to day....you could eat an entire bag of potato's and you'd still be low carb... comparatively speaking to the rest of your meal that is
Great video as always from GCN. people getting worked up by the term 'low carb' are taking it far too literally. Low carb will simply mean less carbs than when in racing conditions. It will still be high carb by a mortal's standards.
I tell you what GCN, you should go and bloody tell team Sky they've got it all wrong, cause that's what you comments section say... Lol. What don't people understand about the video, it's a snap shot of the day - some general I site to what they are doing on the camp. GTFU... And secondly at what point in life did duraianrider become the barometer or reference point for all cycle training, they guys got some decent points that he makes but also makes a lot of noise
The low cadence work will have been to build strength in the legs (i.e. to be able to accelerate faster), it's a common training technique in triathletes who don't have enough time to be on their bikes for hours on end.

3:15 - Talk about how other teams overdo media obligations at camp.
7:40 - Media obligations.
Yeah. That part would make me go mad if I was a rider.
I'm glad GCN isn't considered typical "Media" :)
Says low carb and low cadence, though every shot showed every rider spinning and loading up on potatoes, corn and pancakes. Right.
+The Vegan Swan It's a case of, 'Do what I say, not what I do!'
+The Vegan Swan Just cause Durianrider is lean and fit, doesnt mean his training is the best for everyone. Low cadence TRAINING is good for strength in the legs, not low cadence everywhere...
+The Vegan Swan Training camps are more than one day long.... that will have just been one form of training of many utilised
+The Vegan Swan obviously they didnt show every second of the ride, that would have been silly. And GCN commented earlier that they didnt follow the group that did low cadence work. Just enjoy the video instead of trying to rip it apart with all the mistakes.
I would 100% ride a bike for a living. Travel, healthy pre peeped food, massages! Damn living the best life.
2:09 Looks like this car has once encountered a Shimano support car.
Too funny
Someone needs to tell the Sky chef that potatoes are NOT low carb xD

Pretty sure the "Low carb" is just disinformation to the other teams.
Doing low carb with potatoes, Team Sky Logic.
I would say you've got the idea!
Its great to know what team sky exactly does!! I'd prefer more skills and tricks videos
What new videos can GCN bring to us if sky is the limit?
Dan's doing a video on Jupiter next. Or maybe it was Jupiler, I forget.
+guerthal Or Mars. Or was it Milkyway?
Group rides on Uranus.
+smshdchrb Max efforts on Uranus lol
Jeez, everything is either black or white with you lot. Low carb is not NO carb and low carb for these endurance athletes is still gonna be pretty damn high carb relatively speaking!
+smshdchrb people assume they eat 7000 calories a day but that is not the case... just look for interviews with Froome and Cav
Exactly!
they onky eat 6 to 7k calories during grand tours. nobody said they eat that much all the time...
"Low Carb"
5 trays of potatoes for dinner....
Erm... That's an afternoon/ evening meal. They have already done their training for the day by that stage. I'd say their breakfast was low carb.
+alan hall most of your glycogen stores are built up the day(s) before you use them. so that evening meal will be for tomorrow's 'low carb' training
+Edward Smith do you know what a fat burning ride is?
+alan hall are you going to tell me that your body turns to far as an energy source when it is depleted of carbs. please say yes so I can commence today's class
+Edward Smith is that a yes or no? It's not a hard question.
0.00-8.37 , my favourite part
Rod says they don't do media stuff at training camps, then what do we see? Riders filming adverts and promos after riding 190km!
Minimize not completely
Bravo GCN!!

Thanks GCN! This really is exclusive content. Awesome.
Oof, the season's barely begun and the RS window on that Ford is already cracked!

+GlobalCyclingNetwork was 3:20 too subtle for you Matt?
low carb training? Any chance of a video on that?
ARGH that massage looks soothing :(
I need one but that means it's coming out of my pocket
Spot on hair cut Dan.
WHAT! WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THE CAR! get on ya bike with the guys ya slacker haha ;)
a scarily well oiled machine . world leaders
please do more of these! so awesome!!
Durianrider gave it a thumbs down for the low carb training!
i know its pretty much the same, but i think team sky's new kit looks really nice!! a deeper black and lighter blue i think? :)

+La ne they had mutiple groups and only one was low carb. with a personal chef they may have had seprate diets vs the other groups

Plenty of carbs in the food that was shown on the video.
An HOUR of massage? If you do some foam rolling after a ride, how much is enough?
Presumably Kiry i.e. the Terminator was just getting his orders from Skynet on how to destroy the peloton over facetime
Matt looks the size of a Hobbit next to Vasil Kiryienka! 1:30

im here to watch videos and not read comments derp
Good one, thanks!
I think this video was to get Durianrider all worked up! LOL!
I'd really love to the GNC boys race Harley up norton summit!
Low carbs mean endurance training where they are not only burning carbs but also fats
Looks like the Col de sa batalla and sa calobra loop from Pollensa...a classic.
Be nice to see the jiiffy bags.
this video would probably have been awesome, had I don't done to much Dan Lloyd training before. 🍻🍺
Do the riders use different garmin throughout the rides as I'm sure the batteries don't last the sort of time they spend in the saddle
Assuming theres no happy ending with the massages? which brings me to ask about the ejaculation protocol, i.e are they allowed to or are they like boxers told dont do it and how many like boxers disobey the order and how do the riders feel about it, does it affect their performance?
I didn't see many smiles amongst the riders and for them its probably just another day at the office. I don't think cycling would be fun anymore when it turns into a job.
It seems like Sky was just trying to mess with their competitors by giving them alternative facts.
Low carb, low cadence. Surely they are trolling Harley. Or as someone else mentioned they could be using reverse psychology to get the opposition onto low-carb.
On another note, I would watch all the product placement in the world so that they can then produce content like this. Great stuff guys.
You may think the sun shines out of Harley's arsehole but I can assure you the pros are laughing at that wanker.
good training
Dan, if they use Training Peaks for their analytics, if the riders stats say that the rider needs a break, does the coaches allow for that or are they trying to get the most out of the training camp time?
Nice, however I hope GCN can look at some other British teams like Madison Genesis soon? Sorry if I missed that video :)
Will tilting the saddle slightly in the forward direction make us faster?
Low carb!! your having a laugh!!!
training plan #1 stock up on EPO, #2 more EPO
i find it really funny how all the weekend woriors who ride once a week and stop for a breakfast halfway are questioning team sky training methods 😂😂😂
Low carb mentioned several times, yet all Vegans know this is impossible for pros.
+Officer Baron Its the illuminati - they kow tow to them so they will say whatever they are told to.
+Officer Baron It's not impossible - I reckon they strip off muscle that way
Haha I wonder what @durianrider would say about this
+Officer Baron you mean because DurianRider said it?
But i see the logic in it, they train their body to burn stored fat more effectively.
+Frank M Coming back off the off season they have probably gained a little bit of weight and so this is how they shed it. I'm pretty sure durianrider only commented on being low carb for racing so I don't think anything here is going to send him into one of this rages...
Are they required to use ONLY Protone helmet ? Havent seen any of rider using Infinity or Mojito
+starovic89 My guess is probably its too cold for a Mojito but not too cold to use an Infinity. Or it could be also since the Protone is the Kask latest top of the line helmet, the sponsors are probably making them wear it to influence sales.
I wonder how many grams of carbohydrate pre-ride and every hour on the bike is considered low carb.
great video!
Show us the bit where they use corticosteroids!
I'm surprised nobody has picked up on the low carb contradiction thing
As usual, well presented and insightful video again boys, although Dan, considering the amount of time you spend on film why haven't you sorted out the mess of hair at the back of your head?
2:01 Team Sky have a german number plate? :D Nice
Low carb training.
+Justrolling No worry brah they take the hot sauce for the gainz
goddamn it. those potatoes. starving now.
At what time do they see the team doc that manages the oxygen vector program?
If we see Matt on a Dogma in the near future, we now know where he got (stole) it from! ;)
Just my thought's.....when you burn 4000 cal on a workout then another 2000 in your day to day....you could eat an entire bag of potato's and you'd still be low carb... comparatively speaking to the rest of your meal that is
When do they take their EPO?
Was there not a Cervelo Test Team training camp?
Great video as always from GCN. people getting worked up by the term 'low carb' are taking it far too literally. Low carb will simply mean less carbs than when in racing conditions. It will still be high carb by a mortal's standards.
Nice video!!!
I tell you what GCN, you should go and bloody tell team Sky they've got it all wrong, cause that's what you comments section say... Lol. What don't people understand about the video, it's a snap shot of the day - some general I site to what they are doing on the camp. GTFU... And secondly at what point in life did duraianrider become the barometer or reference point for all cycle training, they guys got some decent points that he makes but also makes a lot of noise
GCN, looks like Alex Peters was sarcastic.
just cycle on no carbs and no protein. have little water too. #winningsecrets
I think I saw Lance Armstrong in the background with a Team Sky kit on....is that true?
