Great content, looking forward to more. Will definitely be very interested in seeing how you transition through your training plan and your reactions to the workouts, etc.
Riding Ramped FTP Tests I would recommend to ride with ERG mode on. Especially for riders with less experience definetly a better way for organizing your power over the full time. The trainer will set the power to the given watts.
Great content EJ! Looking forward to when you get into your first crit!! Just make sure you've got a few under your belt before you race at intelligentsia! Lol!
Have you experienced weight loss plateauing? Every time I need to lose a big block of weight I always hit a plateau mid way through that lasts about a week or more. It’s frustrating to be doing constant riding and being in a constant deficit and not lose an ounce…. Just curious to know if you experienced that in your recent journey and if so, how you overcame it
Hi Bobby! Yes I have many times in the past when trying to lose weight and it is very very demotivating. The biggest thing I’ve learned to overcome it is to maintain your caloric intake (making it even with your output) once you hit that wall. Once you do this for 6 months your body should adjust to the weight you’ve lost and you can overcome that wall that you’ve hit! I’m currently stuck at 185 so that’s what I’m doing at the moment! I’ll talk about it in the next vlog! I hope that helps!
Very uncool to be talking about BBQ and then showing next years BBQ in their paddock chewing their cuds. What if those cows are new subscribers? Won't be buying that house. Good content man.. nice mix of bike and off bike time.
When you eating out how do measure how much food it is and the calories? Do you bring a scale with you and ask the hosts how much oil they used during cooking? :D
HAHAH no I just guesstimate :) you can’t be insanely accurate for situations like this and it’s all about balance. So I try not to let it take over my life too much by doing things like that.
4:17 Me thinking. Wow somebody who is surprised by seeing cows. Might want to desensitize by coming over here (The Netherlands) to ride a few times: Cows everywhere! 🙂👍
Hahahahs yeah i know…listen I might’ve finished the edit at 2AM and I forgot to level audio (I could’ve fixed it) I uploaded it and realized I didn’t mix the audio. I for sure got you in the next one! I’m sorry!
Don't know if I ever told you that I was the first person to ever use structured training with intervals in cycling. Well yeah it turns out I am . Now you know👍
Sick video bro! Like seeing the full week of training. Newly/happily subscribed 🤙🏼
Thank you very much! I love filming! So stoked y’all are enjoying it!
Great content, looking forward to more. Will definitely be very interested in seeing how you transition through your training plan and your reactions to the workouts, etc.
Thank you so much for watching! I really appreciate It!
Dude, some of my couch potato friends do not go riding even on a sunny day, so you are smashing it! Let's GO! :)
Hahajaha thank you! 😎
You should have links to NorCal Cycling merch in every video description. Those tee shirts are nice! Will be treating myself to one for the holidays!
Will do!
Better than the original channel, keep up the great work!
Just found your page. These vlogs are dope as heck! I’m a peloton rider but have been debating on a rode bike.
Thank you so much! ☺️ You should get a road bike!
Keep crushing it! Cycling has changed my life for the better! Im happy to see it changed yours and others too! ❤❤
Thank you!! Stoked to be riding! ❤️

Yes! However I had him in ERG mode and since it starts at 50 watts it was impossible! Will try again for the next though
Go ahead dude! I'm cheering for you from Poland. I understand you perfectly.
Thank you so much for the support!
“With that being said…” 🤪 Just teasing, haha. Love the channel. On the same calorie count journey. Keep crushing it, brother!
I say that so much 😂 I realized that while editing
@@norcalfullraces I have a go-to saying on my videos, too. Haha
Enjoying these video's...keep up the good work 👍
Appreciate you're new to all this. Hope you manage to find your own style of video as you go along. Feeling rather VC at the moment!
Appreciate the feedback Alex!
Wow... your roads are so smooth. I live in Michigan. Our roads are hideous
It’s Wednesday already? Yes! Only a few minutes in. Glad to know that someone else says hi to the cows when passing by.
Thank you so much for watching!
Of course gotta say hi to the cows!
Great content EJ! Looking forward to when you get into your first crit!! Just make sure you've got a few under your belt before you race at intelligentsia! Lol!

I actually like these better than the main channel. Am I crazy? 🤔
The firefighter might have done better had his saddle been raised to a more efficient height. He seemed very cramped. But fun video!
I see you've been buying some of Tyler's merch. Awesome 👌
He’s a super dope dude! He sent me some and I bought some. Got lots of respect for my guy 🤙
The “Good Morning” is a classic homage to VC December Vlogs.

What is your daily calorie goal? Love the content
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you like it! 😊 my daily goal depends on my output which is track by my whoop!
Nice hoodie in the first clip! Where can I buy this?
Check out the main channel! NorCal Cycling!
What microphone do you use on the bike so that it’s not just wind sounds?
It’s the media mod attachment for the GoPro

HAHAHA I’d absolutely love to ride over there. Would be a dream!
There's cows everywhere in the US my dude. Never not excited to see them though!
Subscribed buddy.. Cool content 🎉
