Absolutely not, because the sweat is a huge problem , causing wounded skin inside my bibs. Those wounds it what holds me back so I cant ride maximum miles day after day.
@@FTA38yearfreeride Thats true, but hitting the best capasity you can is fun. But for me skininjuries because of friction and wetness is holding me back. Avoiding set backs because of injuries is more efficient getting into to top form. I look forward to some holiday with good training at 900 meters above sea level. That will give me a slight altitude-boost. That said, Chris Horner was able to put in a huge load of training in the heat befor he won Vuelta Espana, so he probably did not have the soreness issues that has been hitting me too often sweating on my indoortrainer.
I’m average cyclist. Ride 3 times a week about 85-110 miles a week. All summer here in Austin Texas I was riding in 95°-100°+ and averaging around 21-21.7 mph. each ride. Now it’s cooling down and all of a sudden last two weeks I’ve been averaging 21.8-22.6 mph. (Still on the mid to high 80’s but feels much better ). Texas HEAT training.
Would like to know more. Would be cool to do a series similar to Dan's series and can do deep on a subtopic per video. Perfect for Ollie’s science background. On a side note - wasn’t planning to watch the video since it had an ad tag and the title is ambiguous. Turned out to be informative.
I did heat training preparing for the Head of The Charles regatta. There is no doubt that it improved my performance. It is not much fun but it pays off for the big races. I wear the Core monitor when riding or rowing.
Thanks Dr O and crew . That device is expensive, to go along with all of the other devices I already own , and rely on . I'll just stick with the tried and true system , yup , digital input required .Sometimes a passerby will very thoughtfully offer to help with this . Car drivers can be very kind !
Great video - very informative. I’d like to see another one on this topic; perhaps taking someone through a twelve week heat adaptation. As someone who lives in a cold climate, but takes part in events in hot climates, this would be really useful. Cheers.
Good video, probably not the most obvious title for lasting 'searchability'... but as this is much more relevant / accessible for the majority of people vs. altitude training definitely a topic to visit in more detail. Thanks
I’d love to hear more… or at least, see more of you looking like a paint sprayer!🤣. I’ve always found that hot weather drains me… very noticeable. This weeks autumnal 12’c ish is just perfect… summer kit and cool. So I would probably benefit measurably from some of this structured heat training. Let’s see further video Oli
This year I really suffered from the heat - not so much on the bike as I couldn't do too much training due to some health issues - but in everyday's life. So I'm really eager to learn more about heat training if it really helps not only to improve your performance but also improves temperature regulation and heat adaption off the bike. So a clear YES from me for more specific heat training videos! ☝
I had picked up on the benefits of training in the heat in the 90s but I assumed that I was only building tolerance (mostly mental), not actually improving FTP; science and GCN videos seems to show both are possible. I could notice that from living and training in a very hot city in California gave me an edge on races when it was hot, appearing to suffer less than others. I do caution riders doing long solo rides in the heat; I did once got heat stroke, temporarily forgot phone number, address, etc..,on a solo century in 41-43C. Stupid choice, but we often think we're invincible in our 20s.
Sigh, I remember a time when we used to get fit by riding bikes for fun. Now we have training plans with heart rate monitors, power meters and core temp sensors (and all the associated costs) just for the sunday club run.
Theyre all tools, no one is saying you have to have them? Heart rate/Power monitors are great training tools if you have specific goals in mind. They also make great monitors for doing epic events/audax's/endurance challenges so you don't over exert early on. If you want to ride your bike on sunday for fun, go do that and save the money for the coffee's instead :) No one is saying you have to add spoilers, body kits, engine remapping to your cars, but people can do whatever they like.
@@eddiewards123 No, you don't have to use them and if you didn't know you wouldn't care however, even though the GCN audience is mostly amateur level, it creates a fear of missing out. It's on GCN so everyone must be doing it, I need to buy one too. For most riders more time on the bike, losing some weight, perhaps some strength training, focusing a bit more on in nutrition and drinking a bit less would have a more significant improvement on their fitness rather than just buying more stuff.
I think people should be allowed and encouraged to ride and train how they feel is best for them. I started off riding my road bike with nothing but a HR monitor. Now I also have a power meter, and if this heat monitor will come in handy during training, I will likely also add that to the repertoire. Not because I feel like I need it at my level, but because I want to make sure that I get the most out of my training, thus translating into increased performance in races, which is now the level I want to be at. The overall consensus is still the same though, riding your bike as much as possible, is the best way to get fitter. However, now we just have more advanced ways to make sure that all that time is spent more efficiently, I can't possibly see anything wrong with that personally.
Different things motivate different people to train. Some people like seeing numbers and data to validate their efforts. Ollie has a PhD in chemistry, so I am guessing he is more of a “data-driven athlete” than say, Hank. Others are more motivated by the social aspects of the weekly club run, and the cafe stop at the end. Others find that signing up for and travelling to an epic Grand Fondo is the very motivating for their training, despite being probably more expensive than a body temp sensor. Bottom line, don’t complain just because someone else motivates themselves through data. The most important thing about any type of training is just that you do it, not what equipment you use.
@@andrewmcalister3462 I like data, it is entertaining. I have watt , cadence and speed displayed on my comuter when I am on the trainer, and after biking outside I can read the data on Strava when i come home. But I have zero datadevice on my bike, no speedometer, no wattmeter.
Interesting stuff Ollie. I think I've been inadvertently doing heat training, starting gentle zone 2 rides on the turbo trainer thinking I won't need the fan on, then sweating buckets by the end!
Great stuff. Yes, please do more content on this. Second thought, don’t do more content on this, just email me directly! I take my training seriously and will be implementing this soon. Prob will order a Core sensor this weekend. Thx and cheers.
Would love to see a deeper dive into this topic! Currently training for the Cape Epic in winter time.. but in March it will be hot in South Africa 🥵 would love to see some extra gains 😎
I live in Western Australia and spend every autumn/winter in northern Thailand. Heat training is all I do. Below 16C, I’ll have my gilet on, below 12C is arm warmers too.
Agreed. I'd welcome a series on the different types of heat sessions, getting to zone-three heat, how to program the training into your current plan et al!
I already do heat training because I live in South Georgia (USA) so it comes naturally. Also it’s ironic that a video like this comes out the day I start doing harder workouts on the bike lol
I live in Raleigh, NC. Between riding outdoors year round anyway, summers are heat training in the south. As a born and bread southerner, I freely admit that southern Georgia is a bit warmer than my area. Although NC's sandhills could possibly give you a run for your money. Fayetteville is only an hour and a half south/ southeast of me, and yet is regularly 8 degrees warmer, and 10-15% more humid.
@ yeah, I’m doing winter training as well, I don’t exactly know that it would be safe but I want to be the best in my area and possibly join a college team next season
Interesting concept. As an older rider, I tend to prefer the more relaxed geometry of the gravel bike frame. I don’t race anymore, so speed on the road, or off road, is not as important anymore. Being able to enjoy one bike, either with separate wheels or just tires that can do both, is a great thing.
In fact, Taiwan KOM is usually held at the end of October or early November every year. It is actually the dry and cool season in Taiwan (except for northern Taiwan)... I guess I don't really need hot training.
I've Genuinely Always Used a Bin Bag, I've sworn by this method to increase my Vo2 max and overall fitness since i was 16years old and studied sports science. You will come back absolutely drenched in sweat and the bag sticks to your body which actually makes it more difficult for your lungs to take in maximum capacity of oxygen. It really is the best way to increase your performance for little to no money spent. X 1 bin bag is all you need.
Take a large enough bag to allow full extension of the rib cage and the belly for unimpeded breathing. You need to be able to breathe hard so that you get all the benefits of training. A large bag decreases your aero so you could do strength training which will get your temperature up😅
Thanks for follow up on Conor's video. I've done heat training (using a enclosed 'box' with heaters) on several occasions for races in warmer/altitude locations. Definitely helps. Question; can you combine the CORE system with post ride hot sauna or hot tub to hasten the adaptation?
But that's not all .... Ollie good one and certainly merits more vids (though as we enter the Aussie summer, we'll be looking more for how to cool down quicker after a ride)
I heard that extreme cold training will halve your training time. Plus if you take ketones and wax your chain, you can gain even more improvements! Add in baking soda with sour cherry juice, you will be zooming at your next race! Keep the fads coming, GCN!
I know that you are joking, but anyway I will warn against training in the cold, because training below minus 15 degrees celsius might cause harm , it might cause cold-astma.
More pls. =). I've been doing some sessions and I've felt adaptation. In the last sessions I introduced a new element that I felt increased the difficulty. Humidity at 80% through humidifier. Do you know if introducing high humidity into an already hot environment can cause new stress with new adaptations?
In the Haute Route Alps 2023 I literally died in the heat. I lost a bottle on the decent of the Col de Romme and melted on the accent of the Col de la Colombière, so much so I cramped so badly I had to walk the last few hundred metres. I was so obsessed with refuelling on the descent I crashed clean breaking 5 ribs in my back and fracturing every rib at the front on the left side. The temperature that day was around 34 degrees on the accent of the Col de la Colombière and I would be really interested to hear tips for how best to prepare for that kind of heat. Now fully recovered I plan to go back and do the haute route again as it is unfinished business for me and so I would appreciate any advice you could give as that heat, under that kind of effort is brutal.
Careful with taking supplements and core temperature, folks… especially pre-workout (if anyone does that?). Significant core temperature increase can leave your OOO on for a long time… Cycle well, dudes.
I didn't watch the video, but could someone just tell me which pharmacy to go to to get this secret training recipe? Is it the one sagan used and lost access to it a few years back?
Definitely needs follow ups, I live in the UK but I’m looking at racing abroad and this would be great. Let’s be honest, heat training in the UK by riding outside is…… How can I put this…… Limited? 😂
@@gcnthe reality that using a paint suit is very dangerous and completely unnecessary. Talk about safety and you use a safety suit for construction site which isn’t designed for elite sport. Especially when people don’t have a clue using heat sensors. And the most important point and most critical. The core isn’t always accurate so now you’re mixing a safety suit which isn’t designed for training and something that’s not accurate? Safety ?
Interesting. Question: if I just put on an extra couple of layers for an outdoor ride, or switch off the fans and wear a warmer jersey indoors, would I get at least some of the benefit without having to bother with sensor and zones?
Yes probably. This video is sponsored by core so ofc they’re going to say you need the sensor. Just wear more layers with no fans while riding indoors. Make sure you’re hydrating and not getting dangerously hot ofc. You’ll get at least some of the benefits that way without paying £230.
The thing with the sensor is that if you are playing around in heat you have an instrument that can warn you if you are heating up to the dangerzone. I am not going to buy that sensor, so I must be careful on the hottest days. I do not think its wise to push too hard in heat. If you die of heatstroke you will not improve.
If your power is down and you are sweating a lot you are going to be in the right territory I'd imagine. After acclimatising your power presumable won't drop off so there's the test to see if it's working, you can decide that on cadence and feel, power sensor not necessary.
I think it is important to note that people who are prone to heat related medical issues should be mindful of doing heat training without clearance from a physician. I understand that many cyclists are pretty fit and won't have issues but someone will try this and end up with heat stroke or passing out. On a side note, I suppose an old fashioned sweatsuit would work rather than looking like a painter, 😂
So the suit, the bike... Lots of E.T. vibes. Only need a basket on the bike. Also, it was Elliott riding the bike, and he did not have the white suit. Also need flashlights.
Ollie an edit is that you say remember to have alot Walter by hand. Which is wrong u should Max drink 250ml. Or nothing cause the heat will drop when you consume water, which will make the zones a little more inaccurate and u also get more out of it, atleast that’s what I feel and that’s what I been told my the personal trainer of unoX and my own personal trainer.
Is Heat Training something you would consider adding to your schedule?
I have been doing it without knowing it lol
How many heat sessions/ hours do you recommend doing each week for maximum gains?
Absolutely not, because the sweat is a huge problem , causing wounded skin inside my bibs. Those wounds it what holds me back so I cant ride maximum miles day after day.
If you are not racing there is no point to it.

Yes probably. This video is sponsored by core so ofc they’re going to say you need the sensor. Just wear more layers with no fans while riding indoors. Make sure you’re hydrating and not getting dangerously hot ofc. You’ll get at least some of the benefits that way without paying £230.
The thing with the sensor is that if you are playing around in heat you have an instrument that can warn you if you are heating up to the dangerzone. I am not going to buy that sensor, so I must be careful on the hottest days. I do not think its wise to push too hard in heat. If you die of heatstroke you will not improve.
If your power is down and you are sweating a lot you are going to be in the right territory I'd imagine. After acclimatising your power presumable won't drop off so there's the test to see if it's working, you can decide that on cadence and feel, power sensor not necessary.
All I need to do is to ride between 11am to 2pm in Singapore. Around 30 degrees C average, and 90+% humidity. Everyday. 🥵
Ollie looks like a branded MARSHMALLOW

I think it is important to note that people who are prone to heat related medical issues should be mindful of doing heat training without clearance from a physician. I understand that many cyclists are pretty fit and won't have issues but someone will try this and end up with heat stroke or passing out.
On a side note, I suppose an old fashioned sweatsuit would work rather than looking like a painter, 😂
So the suit, the bike... Lots of E.T. vibes. Only need a basket on the bike. Also, it was Elliott riding the bike, and he did not have the white suit. Also need flashlights.
Ollie an edit is that you say remember to have alot Walter by hand. Which is wrong u should Max drink 250ml. Or nothing cause the heat will drop when you consume water, which will make the zones a little more inaccurate and u also get more out of it, atleast that’s what I feel and that’s what I been told my the personal trainer of unoX and my own personal trainer.
If you want heat training ride anywhere in Australia in summer
I live in Cyprus and even at the end of October it is difficult to cool down by an open window.😅
Now I know why my FTP goes up after training in the Queensland summer 🌞🥵
Heat training? I live in Florida. EVERY day is heat training!
That body suit reminds me of when I used to work in a CAT 3 lab. horrible thing to wear and was bloody hot.
