Hey man Im a swimmer for 15 years now and the first thing I can tell u is that when you start to downgrade yourself from the others it’s already over... U got to keep the positivity high and swim relaxed/smooth but really efficient
Thanks from all of us lol.
I agree. Swim and relax. Feel the beauty of the water.
"If you don't have fun, what's the point."
Loved that one
Talbot's edits with the music just get cleaner and cleaner...🔥
Intro was fire. Production is stepping up. Great insight on your psychological mindset you have with the pool and swimming.
Watching you and Sam Long’s videos today I’m blown away by the pro mindset. You guys are fierce competitors with yourselves. I started swimming a few years ago at 42 and I’m doing 1:24 per 100 yd. swimming is a long game strategy. Love the insight in this content.
I gave everything on the France Zwift KOM to be in time for this Video!
Was it the ventoux ven-top what time did you do 😷👍.? Well done by the way😀
@@krisbowditch827 No, just the petit boucle. I did it in 5min. So it was nearly a sprint @ 5.5w/kg :D
Lots of Canadians in Arizona: Barrie ‘the king of triathlon’ Shepley, Paula & Corey! Outstanding effort by Lionel.
Shepley's a Canadian..?
Arizona is a great climate even in the winter ☀️☀️☀️ get past 8:30 in the morning 👍
Lionel, there is a breaking point where swimming harder is actually slower. The form becomes kind of thrashy and smoother is actually faster if you’re doing any kind of distance. There is a pace that’s fastest for you considering your form. If you want to be faster than that and you’re already fit, keep working on volume which helps smoothing out your form. You got this!!!
great advice. Lionel, I hope you read this, is not new to you I am sure, you have heard this before, you know what I am going to write in your brain, now you need to make it functional at an emotional level so your ego doesn't take the best out of you. Swim speed = propulsion gains - drag losses. Most of the time we crap on the losses trying to increase propulsion. I think that is why go you slower on race day, you are trying to keep up with others based on effort not smoothness. Work on your form over distance, be Zen son You still have pro years left to close that mental gap. With Love and respect from an old fart fan
I disagree. Look at his swim speed for that 1000 yards. That equates to 1.26min/100m in a 50m pool. Don't forget he was swimming in a 25 yard pool. Lucy Charles would be swimming around 1.03 pace. It is clear that volume is not going to fix his issues.
He’s tried volume. He’s swimming lots of mileage and managed 1.25min/100m pace for a 1000 yard TT. That’s what a typical 11 year old swimmer would average, swimming 3 times a week. Clearly there is a technique issue. You don’t need to be a Rhodes scholar to figure that one out
That Cameron Wurf popping up on every f.... word, HILARIOUS!!!! Love to you Lionel, love to Cameron!
Talbot the "level up" clip was pure gold! Literally lol'd. Awesome video as always.
when you watch the first 30seconds and get hype when you see lionel in alphafly's!
From what head and see from the pros the Alphas are actually slower, the Next% seem to be the king of the hill right now.
Isn’t Lionel sponsored by Skechers?
@@damiensoong5638 by the look of it not anymore
Doesn’t he have a shoe sponsor that’s not Nike
@@oliverleibbrandt8067 his trisuit still has sketcher on there which he has been with for years, but im guessing he wont be for 2021
Lionel, you would be a beast in Ultras. With that low heart rate, you could just keep going on a consistent pace. You're an aerobic beast.
Not really, it’s all relative.
Knowing your deficiencies is half the battle. You’re working on it and you’ll improve. Don’t be so hard on yourself.
Love the way every swearword is censored by the wurfy boi.
I’d say that’s the best video ever produced by Talbot. Had everything. Particularly liked Lionel talking so openly and vulnerably too. Triathlon dream team. 👌
Looking forward to the Erin Sanders Series: Taming the Lion. Gonna be great!
Turning point in Ur career just happened. 10:45. "I'f you are not having fun, what's the point." You got this!
I think this overall plan is a great idea and will prove to be very successful for you! I like the 5 day rest after each block. Good work, looking forward to following along this year!
You keep being just so real, anyone can post and show off personal best but you show us the whole image of what you are going through. You are the best
You stop putting urself down. We all understand how u feel. I don’t want to hear u talking like that. Let’s start being more positive about the water. Ur going to get this, just be positive. Great video TY YOUNG MAN!
I would LOVE to see Lionel do the same thing for his swim as what he did for his 5k run pb last year. I know that his swim times are not as impressive as his run and bike, but I'd love to see how much he could improve with a concentrated effort on his swim.
Awe watch out. This man PRd in the 5k this summer. As a collegiate runner he never thought he’d do that again. But he did. Then surfed that confidence through the Canadian hour record. Now he’s run 30 seconds faster in a 5k time trial off the bike than he has in a race. This man is building serious confidence. Gotta have that on race day
Great video Lionel and Talbot! Shoes was a surprise and a tease. Good luck for the next block. This is very motivating stuff.
Nike and Lionel match so well, hopefully they sponsor him.
Lionel is a class act, Nike are scumbags who support China your comment is ignorant.
@@timob12 ??
@@pochipsino Lionel shouldn't use equipment that supports China. Its like supporting Nazi's
@@timob12 wtf
@@felipepalmerola7108 what part confused u? If your buying products related to China aka Nazi's u are a POS
Great video! Love the honesty. I feel similar in the water. I'm years into practicing, (5 months consistently), but struggle to breath comfortably. A 100m swim would be an all out-effort! I am working with a wonderful coach and fully trust the process, but damn is it discouraging to finish yet another swim feeling defeated. The fact that you are a top-level athlete and have similar struggles is a reminder that I'm not alone. Your journey adds fuel to my desire to swim like a dolphin. Sick video, Talbot!
Poor old Lionel. He gives himself such a hard time about his swimming. Would be nice to see him give himself some credit for working on his weaknesses. These obsessive personalties we have as triathletes are such a double edged sword, and I find it so hard to get the balance. Mine led me to injury and heartache, but then also brought me back from the brink (to an extent) and I'm never really sure what side of the fine line I'm on. That's why I like these videos. The best thing about them is being given a window into Lionel's psychological struggles/ journey.
Maybe wear the VaporFlys during the swim?
And pullbuoy during Run?
These videos really pump me up when i drive to the y.
Absolute banger. Looking forward to hearing what’s going down with the sneaks!
Seeing lionel in alphaflys and not in sketchers shock
i thought the same! maybe he changed sponsor hmmm
@@Panajotoff1 in the live Stream he said in Chat that Skechers is not a sponsor anymore. No reason or anything given, so we‘ll have to wait
@@Panajotoff1 I don't actually believe Nike sponsor any triathletes other than maybe Vincent Luis. Definitely no Ironman athletes anyway!
The 15:08 makes more sense now ....
@@CoachPursuit Lucy Charles, Cam Wurf...
Talbot that intro gave me goosebumps
Lionel. Your a champ! Stop the negative self talk about your swim! Good work
damn Talbot has really stepped up his game in the intro.
Lionel, thank you for sharing this four phase training approach. It’s very interesting and inspiring. Great 5 kms Run! Hang in there on the Swim, it’s a process.
very informative, thank you Lionel
Almost thought Lionel was posting he did a sprint tri in 19:27. Wouldn't be surprised.
Lionel your like no other your discipline is incredible your such a inspiration for my triathlon journey big ups Dude
What a pump from the video they bike leg and run with the tunes make me want to train harder.. unreal stuff keep the videos coming
that swim coach is hilarious
Is intro is pure beauty and motivation
Damn I like this guy so much...idk I just hope everything ends up well for him and that he finally cracked the code for actually balanced training which suits him.
If Lionel wins Kona I want that day to become a national celebration day in Kannada. Nothing less
Nice Mango Alpha's!😎👍🏽
The F bomb Wurf pics are the best!
You rock man, even when you say you suck, you still rock. Congrats Lionel for the effort, keep on pushing!!
As a fan of LS and of triathlon, I’d argue that being a “bad” swimmer is part of the Sanders mystique. I know he’d love to win Kona by a mile, but when he does finally win it’s going to be epic to see him fight from the back of the race and overtake Jan. That will be a race.
Great swim!
-Just a heads up: 1000y = 914.4m (update the description!)-
Update: Thanks!
With Lionel constantly beating himself up about his swim. I wonder what all the other IM athletes are thinking about their bikes and runs compare to his!
Great Training Day Lionel, gotta give the new shoes some credit for the 5k PB too..!
Great vid, I really like the premise of your training and videos now Lionel. I know you're hard on yourself but it looks like solid improvement across the board for you.
What an inspiration you are brother! I admire your work a lot!
Sam Long brought me here! Big Fan of Talbot's work!
Hey Lionel, keep working hard and enjoying the process! Awesome video Talbot!
Awesome. Love how open you are with this stuff.
Crushing it!! Keep the updates coming!! And love the music too
Is this like the beer mile, but with Oreos?
He meant Oro valley :)
Auto correct working its magic 🤣
Love Talbot being total TROLL in this video! Also.....Alphafly's? We see you Lionel!
Call me a fanboy but imo this is by far the best triathlon footage on the internet.
I agree
I’m a fanboi
Eric lagerstroms is good too.
@@phxrsx Didnt know, I will check it out
great to see yourself pushing to the limit in the run. enjoy!
Love those new orange sketchers!
Always motivating....Thanks, Lionel Team!
You should make a video explaining your diet plan for this period and if and how you will adjust it to the different training faces when the volume will change etc. will you restrict eating when resting or decreased volume and will you increase whit the volume? Love your inspiring videos💪🏊🚴♂️🏃🏻♂️
Of course he eats oreos... with a linear relation to how many hours he trains. (:
People focus waaaay too much on diet
@@christoph_wattever how did you come to that conclusion ? I guess its import since its a part of recovery and that is the part where you actually gain from your hard training.
@@lucaschniefer6455 yes, obviously it's important to get all your nutrients in and not be overweight. But as long as you're not deficient, it's icing on the cake. People should focus on the cake.
@@lucaschniefer6455 I would guess something like:
If one trains just a little bit ( amateur ) getting right nutrients and not to much energy is important.
If one trains 15h/week or more putting out twice the power of a amateur they need to eat so extremely much that the essential base nutrients will never become a real problem because they need to eat so much to get all the energy.
Obviously it's not smart eating weird times and kfc, but after learning some basics about nutrients and diets it's actually easier in my opinion. 1 cookie/hour for an amateur... 1package of cookies/hour for someone as lionel sanders ;).
videos just keep getting better and better, good stuff.
I like to see you work on your swim! More time in the water is going to help. That mindset shift will help too. Learning to swim and swim FAST as an adult is really tough. My fist job at 15 was teach swim lessons to kids and adults. Teaching adults was way way way way harder.
I'm the same as you Lionel, if i try to start going for it i lose the feel and i swim slower. I have learned to embrace the fact that i will be slow in the swim and that's it. If you catch them on the bike i don't see the issue.
Just for fun Id love to see you do a duathlon like Powerman Zofingen. All the tri greats of the day did it way back when......
Spotted two new potential sponsors. I don’t want to name them but great move if that’s the case 👍🏻
Oreo cookie's ... now I will have to run 10k to burn that row of cookie's
Nicely done chief🦵👍
@TalbotCox if this is you your production is on fire ...
Production quality is insane!
1. Great production quality of the vid...love it.
2. Cam Wurf. Awesome.
3. Level up.....ditto
4. Was he so tired after the run that he made a mistake in quoting his 5k pb? Dude was in the 14s, not the 15s.
5. We (the viewers) are his therapist/therapy
MMMM did I miss a change in shoe sponsor?
Looks unsponsored with shoes to me. Skeechers WU/CD and Nike race effort.
@@nbrowne1 Puma should jump in. Big things coming.
@@nbrowne1 he said in Chat that Skechers is no sponsor anymore, no reasons
Lot of triathletes(Charles, Murray) by design have no shoe sponsor(run by choice what fits) triathlon is like Nascar in terms of big# of endorsements.
Missed it too i guess
Loving that intro music 🎶
Lionel you keep me motivated during this crap time
There is something about lionel that reminds me of happy Gilmore, I love it 😀
Great job man! I’ve got a lot of motivation from you! Let’s go work 🙏🏼
alphaflys looking good
Brilliant. Love these
Edit's of the video is just 🔥
I find it funny he is so hard on himself for his swim times. Other than Jan & Tim swim times his time was about on par with every one in the top 5 (2019 IM World Championship). His time was around a 1:14 per 100 if you average it out for the 2.4 mile swim. The only thing he needs to work on is bi-lateral breathing and keeping his elbows up on his stroke- based on that video clip. I am sure his coach reminds him of that at practice.
Yeah it’s his swimming. Doesn’t even need to be bi-lateral. Just needs to stop breathing every stroke. Every 2 breaths equates to 1 second.
He’s not gonna improve his swim until he fixes that. Not sure how much he’s paying this coach but a high school swimmer could tell him that off the bat.
Awesome edit Talbot!!!! Congrats! I am still missing the logic of his plan. Why train like a short distance athlete if you want to win Kona? How does he plan to arrive fit at the big island with so much anaerobic stress accumulated over the course of this plan? It would be nice to hear his thoughts on risks vs rewards ;)
Hi Lionel, maybe it just seems so but I think right now you only have fun during your swim sessions because your coach knows how to get into your mind. You don’t have to be hard to yourself to become the best Triathlet in the world. You should enjoy the journey and embrace each step which brings you closer to the best version you can be. Just my two cents.
Great edit Talbot!
Your runing is looking much smoother!
Editor needs a raise 😳😳
The Cam Wurf edit 😂
COREYYYYYY
Love these videos, so helpful!
You are muscling the swim. Feel the water.
Why didn’t Cory run? :)
Love everything about these videos😂
As a swimmer for 20+ years the best advice i could give is to just not over think it. If you try to fight the water and muscle it, it wouldn't work. Try and stretch out every stroke and get in a good rhythm. I'd shoot for taking around 13-15 strokes per lap
Your running form looks so much better!!
Come on Lionel you can do this swim thing, the problem is you don’t feel the sweat like you do on the bike and the run. Me like everyone else in the comments has confidence in you find that place you go to in your mind when you bike and run then go to that place when your in the pool your competitors are watching and trust me they’re scared love you keep digging
3min/k is SICK AFTER 390W+. You can't lose the tri in the swim, remember that!
Brilliant vid, awesome edit
His voice reminds me of jay Cutler the body builder
Nike alphafly ❤️
Adidas adios pro!! Cheaper
Duuuuuuude, the edit in the beginning!!! Credit to the editor man!
Vaporfly next% is one hell of a shoe 🤔😂👍👍
