Training for The Biggest Challenge of My Life: a Full IRONMAN - Ep. 2
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- In the first episode Arno en I had a good look in the mirror and realized we had a very very long way to go if we wanted to finish a full ironman in less than 6 months. Unhealthy and totally out of shape: 3.8km swimming, 180km biking and 42km running seemed impossible. Now after 4 months of consistent training things are starting to look better and better. But it didn't go as smooth as planned: Rob got injured and Arno fell into a dark hole. The most important question however: will the boys be ready in time for their first ironman in June? Enjoy! On met la patate, come on!

Average editor self compliment
Rob, problem with the shoes is the shoe industry is cheating us. Do some research on barefoot shoes and you will understand. We don't need arch support nor shock absorption in our shoes. I changed some months ago to barefoot shoes and it changed everything.
@@gilbertkaes6971 Perfect thing to do with less than three months until running a marathon.
@@skokartong not saying he should change now, but being informed about what is best for your feet when you are doing extreme things is always a good idea. Modern shoe technology has weakened our feet to the point they have to sell us arch support and shock absorption. We evolved over thousands of years to walk and run on our bare feet, and boy we could run... and then the shoe industry put our feet in shoes. Imagine you put your arm in a cast for a month, where are the muscles after you take the cast away? Same thing with our feet, to narrow shoes, arch support... goodby muscles and normal functioning feet... now you are dependent on their shoes and will continue to buy their brand of shoes, special insoles and orthotics... spend your money on their stuff..I am a big fun of the channel, you guys rock. Amusing entertaining and also educational...
@@gilbertkaes6971 we have not evolved to run on asphalt and bouncy shoes increase your running efficiency
12:40 Rob was ready to shit his pants during an iron man, that's another level of dedication.. Go Arno and Rob, you got this.💪
i refuse to believe no one ever did that
@@aubln_ I mean watch their ironman vlog hahah
Hey guys, you motivated me to get in shape again and i am doin good so far (102Kg to 97Kg so far) and to see your progress in this Video motivated me even more. Thank you for this and i cant wait to see the next one. You will make it!!!
Thats awesome! Keep it up. Love the journey. Day by day you are becoming a stronger person physically and mentally. We cheer you on!
oprecht zo trots op ons Arno, als iemand die zelf 14 kilo kwijt is. Weet ik hoe goed het voelt als je progressie ziet. LESGOOOOO
Arno wtf man. Mega inspiring. Ge ziet gewone de oprechte emotie, de pijn, de struggle.
Keep on diggin boys. Never give up.
Its waiting for me in 9 months... loving your videos :) its giving me hope :)
Hope you smash it!
Wow, love this video. You guys are Rockstars, especially Arno 🎉 sending love from South Africa 😊
This series is great, amazing channel!
Tons of progress. Very inspiring! Good luck with more training before the full ironman!
Diep respect, je moet het toch maar doen!! En supernice promo voor de triatlonsport!
i just realized you're going to klagenfurt. nice to hear you are gonna visit "us" :)
The Episode i was waiting for! You guys are amazing! Keep up the good work!
Goe bezig boys! I'm rooting for y'all! ❤❤❤
Rob, red cleats you crazy machine! 😮
such nice edited videos!
We want sport merchandise
respect bois
go boiiiis
will there be a live stream ?!?
I live in Klagenfurt so - maybe we can make a Selfie 🤣 and start Drinking
Mad respect for Arno tho
Both are guns but Arno is really improving must take a lot for both to stay dedicated
Seriously crazy mentality
For real! He‘s gotta deal with the fact that his friend is a lot fotter and also kind of better than him. For Arno the goal to run it seems very far away, where as for rob it‘s nearer. To hava all that in mind but still not give up, thats very very damn impressive.
And respect for his skeleton, my feet and knees wouldn’t hold 😊
@@Jonnyjey they're brothers :D
I love how arno is pushing the body not only for the triathlon but for his health too congrats.
Rob also he is going to kill it!!!!
I can't Believe Rob got to cycle with the man, the myth, the legend, Mega Toby.
He got to bike with Road cycling Champion Remco too.
Mega Toby is an IDOL to say the least
PS: I only realised after filming that my saddle had dropped overtime haha. Saddle is back up, fitted and ready to get sat on with this big booty. Thanks for all the comments about the saddle height hehe. ♥️
I wanted to say, your saddle looked a little too low
You also seemed a bit short in the front. If your arms would be pushed out a little bit and a little bit of a tilt it could lock you in place a bit more and also just help with general comfort.
Then again, your being guided by 2 of Belgians finest. I'm sure they have more in house for you to help you guys get to the finish-line.
Your bro has a solid position. He just needs to learn to keep the head low.
You guys are smashing it!
When will you do a community ride?
As a canyon owner, good to see the seatpost slip alive and well 😂
1:17 for the swim is actualy pretty good to say the least. Gij hebt echt wel talent ze doe zo voort!!!!
Mad respect you legends
Gawx you here? haha
I read this comment in the Gawx voice
Feels good to see best creators I know knowing each other 😊
This is EASILY the most ambitious and epic triathlon training video series on youtube!
KEEP UP, I BELIEVE IN YOU GUYS
We need Average Rob Triathlon merchandising ASAP! CHAUD PATATE
Second that i'd rock it each and every day
Arno getting in shape gives me motivation to keep going. 182cm tall weighed 121.7kg. 2 months later I weight 113.7kg. Slowly but surely 🔥
Fucking amazing 🔥🔥🔥
Keep going my guy! You're doing amazing work. You should be very proud of yourself
Same here started loosing weight because of those videos lost nearly 10kg in 2 months
Good for you, remember why you started!! 💪🏻
Arno looks so comfortable and streamlined on the bike! Let's call him Aerno from now on! :-)
I was a swimmer and wanted to do a marathon. I got injured and it did hurt but I run the marathon. But I never enjoyed the process. So I stopped running for the last 10 years. Then years after and two kids later I started running again. I have a completely different approach now and I focus much more on treating my body right and enjoying my surroundings. I finally enjoy running and it feels absolutely great. Personal advice for those reading this comment: try to go for an adventure, don't just try to reach the mountain.
Arno's transformation is huge. Really impressive
Arno is such an inspiration for myself to get in shape as well
the BEST thing that has ever happened on April's 17th day of year 2023 was the release of this video. Take note of this advise, people reading from the future.
I’m absolutely loving this Arno story arc. Dude is strong and going to smash this 💪
I’m training for my first Ironman in October, watching this is super inspiring! LETS GO! Faaaaab editing also!!! 🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏👏👏
Guys I just found your channel and Im also starting in Klagenfurt. This is a goosebump moment for me. Can we guys link? I would love to Host u when here, we have accomodation right at the lake!!! it would be crazy if we could connect. Keep it up everyones struggling! 8 weeks out!!
Arno is doing really really well, I hope he can make it and no injuries happen to both of the guys! Love the edit as always :)
Bro ik heb zo onttiegelijk veel respect voor jullie! Ben zo benieuwd nr ep 3!!!! LUVV TO YOU
The content is usually excellent... But damn this was next level. Makes me want to train harder myself
New videos from you guys really make the day 1000000x better! Keep pushing!!
Mad respect boys! Arno you give inspiration to all the thick boys that we can do anything we set our minds to! Keep up the amazing work lads and I cannot wait to see the final results!
Zeven anjers zeven rozen toch wel een og liedje
Can we call this as aeROBic and ARNOerobic exercises?
Those are some really top-notch swimming times. Like so good Rob would be in the top 1% of IM swimmers and Arno would be in the top 10% if they did this against the typical IM field. Impressive! (Especially Arno, without competitive swim background!)
Based off the 50m final sprint - not sure about the slower pace swimming!
Arno geeft mij echt super veel inspiratie om zelf iets aan mijn gewicht te doen.. Succes boys! Jullie gaan dat banen! ❤️
Sweaty Rob kinda looks like Freddie Mercury ngl.
Hey guys, I'm also training for my first IronMan this summer ! I just discovered your channel during a yet-another home trainer session and I fuuucking loved it ! Your both so funny but still very serious on training, I'm sure you'll reach the finish line !! Which IronMan event have you choosed ? Vous allez tout péter les boys ! Keep goooing, can't wait to see the next vid !
good question, i'm asking myself the same. If it's September then might be ironman italy. During august there are several options. Any1 knows it?
I've just moved to Belgium for a few months. These two popped up on my feed and i couldn't be happier.
Such good vibes and can see the brotherly love from a triathalon away
Hoe geweldig is het toch om jullie je ding zien te doen en die trainers bijna te zien sterven van't lachen als ze jullie bezig zien 🙂
watching arno be so good on the bike, great natural position and riding style even on the TT bike is so good to watch - well done bro
Respect voor beide mannen, maar Arno toch dat streepje extra! Legends💪
You make inspiring videos! Keep up the great work :)
Grosse grosse force pour les 3 derniers mois les gars faut rien lâcher ! LA PATATE ! 🫶🏼
Looks to me like Rob has an absurdly low saddle position
Its gonna be easier and easier for Arno because he is losing weight and getting better
This is more entertaining than most TV formats nowadays. Thanks and good luck guys!
Moest ge daar nog eens zijn in het ziekenhuis altijd welkom op spoed, dikke fan hier. (Spoedverpleegkundige) keep it up boys !
Laster October 2022 I was 93 kg, and I've been cycling and running routinely and eating healthier and clean. Today I am 71 kg! I remember thinking it's impossible bur now when I look back. I am so proud of what I've done!
I just want to say to anyone who thinks it's impossible! It's definitely possible, I started with a 30 min bike ride and a walk and just built on that consistency and discipline!
Am so proud of the guys, Rob and Arno. This is fun/funny and inspiring at the same time! And that what matters at the end of the day is having fun when you start and through it all!!
crazy to see your guys transformation🔥!
Rob ik denk dat u zadel hoger mag je gaat veel meer kracht kwijt kunnen en minder rap vermoeid zijn
Are we all just here for Arno? 😂
I am not sure if you had a bike fit done, if you haven't, it would be a good idea to do one because there can be an incredible amount of watts saved and also a lot of time.
still very underrated channel. Hope you guys get a super viral video, maybe even this one? All the best from NL
Echt super goed bezig allebei! Zou je ook wat kunnen filmen over de voeding? Voor de rest echt een top video!
Belgian weather gives no fucks 😂😂 I still remember one time during a softball game I swear we went from sunshine to almost a rain snow mix back to sunshine 😂😂
Parlez-vous français ? (Nous débattons depuis 30min avec ma copine 🤣)
"it do be beautifuler than you 😘" Wiser words have never been spoken 😂 Keep it up legends
Amazing transformation guys. This is the best series on RUclips!
Unbelievable high respect for booth of you 🙌🏽 I’m highly impressed and motivated
INspiration all the way!! you guys are insane! Greetings from Germany
Arno should be proud of himself. Not many people can face the fact that they are fat. And even less can do something about it
We need a training jersey : « I’m chaud boulette let’s do it »
You guys are doing great! The coaches are amazing, make them proud!
Rob your saddle looks a little too low! Don’t wanna see you get a hammie injury 🤙🏻
Yo, Rob. I mean this respectfully, mate. I’ve noticed some white spots in your skin, if I’m not mistaken that’s vitiligo. Which is something I have. I’ve been meaning to start running for a while now, but I can’t due to the sun being a HUGE pain in my ass.
Do you use any specific sunscreen? A product you recommend? Anyway, absolutely wish you guys the best! Looking forward seeing the final run and thanks for this huge amount of motivation!
You guys are awesome, i love your content! Such an inspiration... Keep up the good work and good luck for your journey. I am sure you will make it. Greetings from Germany
I had an overload injury on my knee. Biggest thing I learned - keep up your strength training and don't go beyond your plan. Train smart, not harder!
Been waiting patiently for this one! Roll on Ep. 3, you guys are inspirational!
POST NOTIFICATION!
Finally they are gettin more noticable
Their coaches are like their dads 😂 proud and embarrassed at the same time
Put your saddle higher, Rob
I hope we can get a live stream from both of you doing this insane challenge.
I love how you focus on the mental part as well, and Arno’s progress is insane on all levels.
Great, wholesome content, by awesome dudes! ❤
Finally a new video from Rob!❤
These guys are insane! training with Mega TOBY!
0:00 which Castelli jacket is this (Rob's)?
The Netherlands is proud of u guys! Amazing progress!
You now thé most watchers are from Belgium but Rob be like noo
Internationaal 😂
Arno, I have an Ironman coming Saturday (Texas). I weigh 100kg+ as well. You can do it 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾!!
good luck!!!
I had a friend do Ironman at 100kg. Always did 11 hours. Crazy. Never got lighter.
You guys are amazing, keep up the good work🔥
It's kinda funny to me as a rower, that you train to keep the lactate at a low level and I train to have as much as possible. (Btw I train it because the producing of lactate sets energy free and my longest distance is 2k which is about 6-8 minutes)
Laat ook eens het eetgedeelte zien, zou ook interessant zijn om te zien
I’ll be there in Klagenfurt cheering at the top of my lungs for you guys!!! You guys are awesome🤘🏻
Respect gasten! heel erg netjes. Dit is betere motivatie dan de meeste fitness influencers.
I like your light bulbs in your crib 😂😂
The comment section is the best part of this video! We love to love you guys, keep it up! Let’s GOOOOOOO!
So proud of you boys. You have not only improved your lives and challenged yourself but also your audience. Who knows I might have to step up and do an Iron Man one day!
never seen you guys content before. Im 18 years old and starting my own iron man training now. Must say this is very motivating for me man. KEEP GOING!!!!
Your saddle is too low Rob
Jij was op mijn school stres factor
Im passing for exactly the same thing right now. 6 months for full Ironman, run is my bad part. I’m out of shape, my mind is weak. But I will make it and I hope we can make content together onde day. Love the videos
How’s the progress
