Sharon deserves a present or a nice dinner for putting up with us.
😂😂👍👍👍
this channel is absolute gold. so much wisdom!
Very kind of you - thanks
Gosh the this is the first time I've heard an expert say something I thought was a bit weird (but in a good way) about me and my bike. I have said to people, "My backs a bit sore, I think I need to go for a ride", and they think I'm crazy but now this guys confirmed that, "...cycling is actually good for your back." Happy days.
It's true mate..
I have a problem with my low back pain for several years..( do to my obesity... 102 kg before) cycling regularly about 2 years until now..
Not only losing weight ( 74 kg now ).
But also my back problem is solve... 😉...
And bike fitting is a key..
Trough pain, trial end eror..
For me, pain is a signal that my position isn't good enough..
Then i trial to change a little bit my set up until i'm fell it's good..
It's need time...
Just enjoy it... 😂🙏
It is true but lots of ways we can cause issues if bike not set right. Thanks for being part of the community 👍
The accent caught my attention but the content got me hooked.
Glad to have found this channel. I was able to dial my bike fit based on your videos.
Massive thanks mate. Keep it up.
Thank you 🙏
Your Mrs looks like she's heard your jokes a million times 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Great video coach 👍 I have a saying " losers look down winners look ahead " but that's more to open the airways, if you can't breath you can't function properly.
Very true
She looks so excited 😊 I'm not sure if I could keep focus for so long
Love this channel. Learned a lot!
Very good. Definitely have to rewatch a few times to get a propper standing with my fatiguing arms. At the moment I think I'm piss weak in the core. It might be a combo of many things, though. Thumbs up
Thank you 🙏
I think I could just make out Sharon rolling her eyes at a few of your dad jokes! Lol! Great video coach!
Only a few 😂😂😂
I only came here for the pointing stick!
Nice video, thanks!
Excellent video!!
Thank you very much!
Another Awesome Video Coach…I have to completely Agree With You…. I have three bulging disc and a right sciatica, so yeah I have a little bit of of a back issues to say the least….lol… one of the smartest things that I have done after purchasing my last bike was to get a professional bike fit, thanks to that believe it or not riding my bike is the best therapy for my back issues
Thanks again Coach for another awesome video
Great information….thank you for sharing.
Really laughed at the scud mag reference😂😂
I got a new bike 15 years ago and it's never been comfortable.
I'm 5 7 with a 31.5 inside leg and got 54cm specialised allez elite.
I feel its too long ant handle bars too wide.
Ended up with my friends dad old Raleigh that's a M frame but the stem is so much shorter and handle bars are a 38cm
. It's so comfortable in comparison
handlebar width tis the easiest element of bike fit. It appears that bike manufactures purchased lots of stock of 42 and 44 cm handlebars.
@@paulwebster4499 think that was my biggest problem. I shortened stem to 80 but after hearing this I should have opted for 60 and definitely got new bars.
Sometimes my brain and tongue don’t work together! 😂😂
@@BulletproofCycling Regular listener to your monday night podcast. Could I please ask that u do a podcast on the "fourth week" I use RE and HR AND .6 of my last three weeks RE total divided by 3, but I understand that lots of athletes use TSS
Bar width - Chris Horner was an exception to the rule. He rode a very upright 'H2' frame (vs everyone else on a H1) with 44 bar width (his height 1.78m, 64kg), but like all climbers he was very light above the waist. Winner of the Vuelta a España and the oldest to win a Grand tour...
Great. Thanks coach!
My pleasure!
Hello Coach,
What is your opinion to use the kind of rule "you must not see the front hub since it is behind the handlebar if sit in the saddle" to choose frame size?
I tend to avoid such a position as it increases the load on the front wheel contact point and can make twitchy at high speed. However as long as you are aware of this and can ride at speed (eg downhill) with soft front loading etc then you should be ok - the most important thing is being able to ride safely 👍👍👍
I am 5'6 (167cm) and my first bike was Scott Speedster size 52. It always felt a bit too large. Since then, I switched to size 50 and XS on 2 other bikes and they are the right fit, but still feel like they could be smaller without a problem.
Glad you are happy though 👍
Hello Coach,
Firstly, I've seen many you tube videos about zone 2, health, vo2 etc.
Your content by far I have found most helpful, simple messages without all the spin and most entertaining. Great work.
I do have a question in relation to the medical condition PCOS. My partner has said that she has been advised away from zone 2 cardio type of training or above. I keep thinking that surely zone 2 is healthy for everyone, isn't it?
Do you have any ideas or opinions?
Thank you Adam.
I can’t comment against personal medical advice. Have you joined my Skool group? I have lots of doctors in the group.
Great video, good info, and one SEXY fitting model!
Great information, thank you! (your wife's a saint ;-)
Glad to help - she sure is ❤️👍
Shorter cranks - I've used 172.5 cranks for a long time and felt like my pedal stroke wasn't as smooth as it could be and my hamstring and glutes never felt used as much as my quads. 165 cranks feel smoother but hamstrings and glutes wear out and become the limiters. Is it that 165 is bad or should I swap cranks to slowly get used to 165? Thanks
Excellent 👌
Back again for a second comment, HOLA from Spain and still a great video. OK I picked up on the comment about the knee to the pedal spindle which reminded me of another bike fit person on RUclips not a male and puts a plum line from the front of the knee to the pedal spindle.
I use the mummy arms thing for length, but it was just the lack of power through my pedals which I've been and fettled with ( seat higher and forward )🤏🤞
I wouldn’t rely on the plum line from front of knee - use end of femur 🦴 👍👍👍
@KineticCoach that's why I moved my saddle up and forward and today beat my measured hill time by over 2 minutes 🤙way to go ( that's 12.5km, with 600m elevation gain )
Can you use any of this for us MTB riders?
You can 👍
@@BulletproofCycling Nice thanks 👍
I'm 6ft ride a 56cm, I have a inline seat post with the saddle as far back on rails as possible, and still feel weight on my hands, alway thought saddle further forward loads hands more? But saddle isn't super high it's slightly lower
Thanks for sharing! There could be issues with your stack height being too low - watch out for a series of videos that I am planning to share over the next few weeks that will cover this issue
How much of that advice is applicable to MTB? I suppose most of it except for all the information relating to grip width, right?
Correct 👍
Are you not doing bike fits anymore? Have sent message and tried you’re booking system and nothing
Studio presently not open due the volume of coaching that I am doing. Something has to give at present but I am creating a way where I can share lots of tips inside my Skool pages 👍
hey, a beginner here😊, question about where to actually sit on the saddle, its confusing, i see you use that pelvis for examples and it looks to me that you don't realy sit the seatbone on the wide part of the saddle, it's like you actually sitting it by the perineum, when everywhere in the internet says otherwise, i'm sorry to sound stupid, 😂
Yes! Please answer this question, this is something that has confused me too!
Are you not doing bike fits anymore?
Yes - but not presently due to my busy schedule
Thanks can you let me know if you open the appointments as I have just got a new bike fitted to same position as last bike but just might need a pro to tweak so bits? Thanks
HOW PERFECT YOUR TIPS ARE?
WHAT DOSE JUMBO VISMA KNOW THAT YOU DON'T KNOW?
😂👍👍👍
C'mon Maclean! Broom.......you gaun soft? Its a basil brush!
Hey Greg. I am getting old and soft mate. Lovely hearing from you champ ❤️👍
@@BulletproofCycling
Could you please tell me where your office and address please
Is the top of the femur at the waistline?
You normally measure from high up in groin (between legs) using something straight like spirit level. I have other videos that go through this - how to set saddle height
@@BulletproofCycling thanks coach
You should have a lot more subscribers than you do!
finished the video even more confused
Haha sorry. It was a practice but I’ll be doing more
As someone who was recently diagnosed at 51 I found this fascinating….
Thank you for this Coach!
