Ari's Dad here for the first comment--but not for the calories. Mom and I were beginning to wonder if you were still with us; glad a new vid is about to drop! Love, Dad (and Mom)
Man I really like the new ANTI-WHIN Ari :-) This training adventure has changed the way you are perceived and the way you perceive yourself. Keep it up buddy!!
Excellent series. Listening to Coach Scott is really eye opening as a former injury plagued college runner. There's no doubt I simply wasn't eating enough. So many endurance athletes out there would benefit from eating more, not less!
OOOOH you are going to love Noosa, heaven on earth, you won't want to leave. Hey Ari, it seems like you love training in Australia and are gaining from it, is it feasible to come back and make this a regular training block for you at this time of year?
I dont have anything to comment but i keep hoping that "any comment is a good comment" and grows Ari's channel. It finally seems to be blowing up a bit! 🎉 Loved hearing the coaches telling you to stop complaining. They sound like awesome coaches.
@ari love the content! Been following for a while now. I'm a fairly competitive runner in southern New Hampshire so loved when you were located around here for a bit running many of the same routes. I'd love to see a video on your views of stretching and lifting/strength training, including what your routines are for both of those. Thanks mate!
Fuck Ari, I've watched your videos before and I'm a pretty keen amateur triathlete, but hell, since you have been in Oz, now I'm hooked. I'm a home grown Aussie from Melbourne that now lives in Berlin. Your videos take me back to the times I studied in country VIC.... Hilarious. .Watching your videos make me want to move back home and train.
Awesome video. As others have said, very positive and I'm sure you will stick with it once you are back in Seattle. I look forward to your first race (what race will it be?) and wish you all the best this year. Keep it up. Don't bitch on deck in Noosa as I'm sure you will find some improvements there as well.
1:09 LCM when your stroke is choppy AF is not bad at all. Clearly making gains down under. Lengthen out the stroke when you start increasing stroke rate and you'll see those times plummet.
This is becoming a REALLY interesting series, thanks for all the info. And seeing Ari eat f’in sardines on toast… so worth 20min of one’s time hahahahaha.
some other kcal density ideas. nuts are very calorically dense. also, maybe consider norweigan crispbread from TJs back in the us. One slice 130kcal iirc. Goes good with cream cheese or any cheese (also calorically dense), which get's topped nicely with some of those oily fish your nutritional coach likes. Not sure if any of this will be as cheap per kcal as kfc but maybe just ideas.
You should look at the Strongman diets - Stan Efferding is the main nutritionist to the top guys and has heaps of good content on how to get quality, convenient, high calorie meals for cheap. Meal prepping something like his monster mash would serve you well, and it would be even cheaper than KFC. You would be surprised how much better you can feel when you nail it at the higher cals.
Great vlog again Ari! It’s crazy how you’re loosing weight eating 7000 calories! 😮 It’s incredible you’re hitting PB’s on your bike as well when you’ve been focusing on your swimming. Do you think you’re swimming fitness is transferring onto the bike or are you doing something special on the bike training? More outdoor riding instead of the trainer perhaps? I can’t wait for your blogs from Noosa! 😊
FWIW, yes, eating adequate calories is important for recovery, but there is a point of diminishing returns where the stress on the body from excessive training and eating (especially junk food), takes it's toll and you'll burn out hard!
@AriKlau sucks I didnt get to meet you when you were in Ballarat!!! Keep up the awesome work mate. ust had a question, how do you make youtube videos on your own and what gear do you use> Looking to start a channel myself and thought Id reach out your way!
Give the man a steak!eggs,avocado, potatoes (not fries!), whole unprocessed grain, fruit , berries Quality nutrition Too many gels and sugary foods….sure Ari has to train his body to absorb these on the go, but looks like there is too much processed sugary food in between. Digestibility and absorption important, not just the total calories Loved the videos!
Curious Ari, do you do any strength training? I don't ever see or hear of any strength work going on. Maybe you're just not including it in your content.
Inconsistently consistently. And by that I mean I will have blocks where I hit the gym 1-2x a week for several weeks in a row, then 0 gym for several weeks. Depends on training volume and time of year.
Ari, you have been struggling with weight and calories for what seems like forever. Is it possible that you have a malabsorption issue? It’s wild for you to eat 7k calories and not at least be at maintenance. Best of luck with your training!
It's not wild -- in a previous Aus Method episode on "Super Saturdays", we'd ride 4 hours Z2 (~3200cal burned if riding 220w), 50-60min run off the bike with intensity (~1000cal burned) then a very hard 5km open water swim with 4km of it threshold or above (~1500cal). That's almost 6000 calories burned in addition to the 3000-3500 I'll burn just by being alive for the day. Other days on camp probably fluctuate between 2500-4000 calories burned so if I don't eat 7000 calories every day when training that much I will slowly start losing weight and the training volume/intensity becomes unsustainable. I'm not an outlier either. Top pros are all eating this much. I wouldn't say I've struggled with weight but I definitely had no idea how much energy was required to do the training I was trying to do, so I dealt with injuries and overtraining more often than not when I tried to train really hard.
@@archmdz perhaps you could find a koala or something? I just can't take you seriously when you're talking to camera about training unless you're holding some kind of animal.
How on earth does a pro triathlete not see the benefit of good clean food. Simply unbelievable. Where are your weight and strength training, massage, and mental training included? KFC. Wasting your time training without the picture being fully complete. You look lost mate. I hope you have a wonderful season. I really do.
You are ignorant. There isn’t a single triathlete out there that doesn’t cut a few corners to battle catabolism brought on by 7k calories burned in training.
Dude, you really need to fix your diet, if for no other reason, then longevity and health… all the training in the world is not going to protect you from junk food… look up Jim Fix if you need to know…
Ari's Dad here for the first comment--but not for the calories. Mom and I were beginning to wonder if you were still with us; glad a new vid is about to drop! Love, Dad (and Mom)
Ari's Dad(and Mom) need to get the Strava app if they want to keep tabs on Junior.
This is incredibly wholesome Mr K
Ari, call your parents more, geez!
@@Kipperrton Thank you for that suggestion! Ari's mom and dad really appreciate it!
I heard that the front-pack swimmers call their parents more often
The attitude transformation is cool to watch. Props, dude!
Crazy what some sun can do!
Bro, this hit different: "My week started on a Monday...because it always does."
Man I really like the new ANTI-WHIN Ari :-) This training adventure has changed the way you are perceived and the way you perceive yourself. Keep it up buddy!!

The Bloody Oath at the end was authentic. Very Aussie!!

This is so awesome to see! Massive shifts for your training so can't wait to see how it translates to your racing! 🎉
This is so fun to watch. Can’t wait to see where these changes take you.
Get ready for that humidity and heat up here mate. 29 degrees is the usual at this time of year. I can’t wait to watch the Noosa videos.
Feels like you find your athlete my friend! can wait to see you racing, because you have it on you!
Such a good series
It’s insane to me seeing how much work you’re doing, both training and the food & water you need to consume. Pretty interesting, best of luck!
So happy to see you enjoying the process Ari. Excited for what's to come
Please tell me you will have content coming out with JR! Loving the journey mate. Keep it up!
I'm sure Jan's philosophy was to train well and eat crap. Can't wait to see you take over GOAT status.
1:09 LCM when your stroke is choppy AF is not bad at all. Clearly making gains down under. Lengthen out the stroke when you start increasing stroke rate and you'll see those times plummet.
I did 70.3 port Mac last year and was running with Scott the whole time, didn’t know at the time he had such a big role in the tri community
Long time/First time: It's just super inspiring to see you commit and reap the rewards and get yourself onto the virtuous circle. Keep it going.
The awesomeness continues. Fuck yeah! Can't wait to see the Noosa episode 🙂
Right when you asked the guy what he thought of your breakfast, I got an add for charmin.
This is becoming a REALLY interesting series, thanks for all the info. And seeing Ari eat f’in sardines on toast… so worth 20min of one’s time hahahahaha.
Way to grind it out Ari. Kick their butts at Oceanside.

Looking good for the future you.
Loving the podcast series too by the way
Headed to Sydney this fall to run the World Major Marathon AG championships. Can't wait to spend time there!
That intro had me rolling lol... Just when i though what they dead, naaah.
Good stuff Ari. Way to get out of your comfort zone
Great vlog again Ari! It’s crazy how you’re loosing weight eating 7000 calories! 😮

Yeah you would be amazed how many calories you burn in training over 20 hours a week
I'd guess the strong bike results might also have to do with having fairly well rested legs.
FWIW, yes, eating adequate calories is important for recovery, but there is a point of diminishing returns where the stress on the body from excessive training and eating (especially junk food), takes it's toll and you'll burn out hard!

Invincible Aussies!! 💪🏻💪🏻
OMG how much is would love to be able to work with Fuelin. Saving up the pennies so I can get their one day and hope it isnt too late :(
Give the man a steak!eggs,avocado, potatoes (not fries!), whole unprocessed grain, fruit , berries
Quality nutrition
Too many gels and sugary foods….sure Ari has to train his body to absorb these on the go, but looks like there is too much processed sugary food in between. Digestibility and absorption important, not just the total calories
Loved the videos!
awesome mentality
Good thumbnail!

#ColonelSanders needs to use you in a commercial.
Damn bro you make me sad at the first but you make me smile like crazy like I was f***ed-up bro hahaha 😅😅😅😅
I need to see you eat a CHIKO roll before you leave Australia.
If my lawn was that over grown i would lose sleep
Keep it going!!!! Engagement!!!
When can we see this beautiful man racing?
Next episode -- a bit behind on the videos but I raced 2XU Tri Series a little over 2 weeks ago.
First 70.3 of the season will be St. George in May.
I notice you splash a lot when you swim, is that just a training thing?
Come race Busso 100 in May.
what you mean with 5k kcals without training??
Was that Jack's voice at the pool?
They're really called Rice Bubbles in Australia?? Wtf lmao
I need your bucket hat 🎉
Question for Ari/anyone…when you are doing easy runs people go for slower pace or HR. On a bike do you look more at easy watts, or power/pace?
I'm looking forward to a KFC sponsorship!
Did you get to anything of Ballarat while you were here?
Lol KFC is just straight toxic sludge seed oils 😂
Ari, you have been struggling with weight and calories for what seems like forever. Is it possible that you have a malabsorption issue? It’s wild for you to eat 7k calories and not at least be at maintenance. Best of luck with your training!
He’s got the team at fuelin helping him with food so will be interesting to see how he goes
His swimming mileage IS absolutly wild.
It's not wild -- in a previous Aus Method episode on "Super Saturdays", we'd ride 4 hours Z2 (~3200cal burned if riding 220w), 50-60min run off the bike with intensity (~1000cal burned) then a very hard 5km open water swim with 4km of it threshold or above (~1500cal).

@@archmdz yeah I had no idea either about how many carbs etc I burned till I used a similar app and it’s rather surprising
“Was about to put 5mins in on Chelsea Sadaro on the bike, then crashed” some bigg statements lol
Wow you eating 7000kcal and burn 7000
Is that jack kelly talking at 3:10
How ironic, training like an Australian, but eating like an American
Update please!!
Take sanders with ye
??
Not holding a chicken, again.
That was a one-time opportunity and we took advantage of it but unlikely to happen again any time soon. Unless I buy a pet chicken I reckon
@@archmdz perhaps you could find a koala or something? I just can't take you seriously when you're talking to camera about training unless you're holding some kind of animal.
Does anyone know what the track is at 9:52?
Made it myself
Yo, are you doing Oceanside??
Nope, opening up at St. George
Nice! @@archmdz
Doing my first long distance in two weeks. T100 Singapore.
Are those hyperion tempos?
yes
What’s “faffing”
Australian for wasting time/being inefficient/taking too long to do a simple task
Man you could also consider Bali - Klim swim
School. Australian Olympian gold medalist
Much cheaper overall
For the love of God will someone please mow that lawn 🙂
He forgot to thank KFC
How many grams in a cup of oats 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
its about absorbing it, not eating. most probably end up undigested in toilet
Algo
What app are you using on help with your fueling, bet your missing the gals giving you grief, eh
Fuelin app
What about all the magic ketones etc you took in the USA? I thought they were the best
How on earth does a pro triathlete not see the benefit of good clean food. Simply unbelievable. Where are your weight and strength training, massage, and mental training included? KFC. Wasting your time training without the picture being fully complete. You look lost mate. I hope you have a wonderful season. I really do.
Lol good luck eating 7000 cals of quinoa, broccoli, and chicken breast a day
You are ignorant. There isn’t a single triathlete out there that doesn’t cut a few corners to battle catabolism brought on by 7k calories burned in training.
Dude, you really need to fix your diet, if for no other reason, then longevity and health… all the training in the world is not going to protect you from junk food… look up Jim Fix if you need to know…
Probably a great metric to prove overtraining. Spencer has already thrown in the towel.
your nutritionist is eating pizza 🤦🏻♂️ the quality of your food is pretty awful, just saying
You need to cut your grass
