I did a 32 hour super low intensity indoor ride on Rouvy during the last bank holiday weekend. Had a lot of moments off the bike (literally every 15 min or so for the final 12 to 14 hours as my backside was killing me) however I didn't sleep. For entertainment I got through the first 3 seasons of Baywatch - lol but yeah - really really slow. dont think i went past low zone 2.

The way I fit in a bicycle training ride into my work day is to ride my bike to and from work. Most of the time my commuter bike is heavier than the bike I ride on the weekends. This helps me improve my cardio and leg strength in a shorter time period.
@H457ur 24 дні тому
I know that not everyone is okay with riding in terrible weather, but I’ve found that investing in high quality deep winter and wet weather gear so that you can go out every day is the best way to be consistent. Ride every day unless the weather is bad enough to actually kill you. It’s so satisfying to be the only person on the road on a crap day. I ride in cold and wet weather down to around -5°C (it doesn’t get colder than that in the daytime where I live), and will only turn around when the wind goes over 40 kph (sustained), blizzard conditions, heavy sleet, or heavy thunderstorms. I have snow tires to keep upright, and wear layers (sometimes as many as four of them). I even wear ski goggles instead of cycling glasses (to avoid frostbitten eyeballs), have winter cycling boots, and use pogies and chemical handwarmers to keep my hands warm. Finally, I carry a serious amount of emergency kit, including a Mylar blanket, chemical body warmer patches, a packable puffy jacket, a satellite messenger, and a full first aid kit with a wrist/ankle splint and a tourniquet (no, that’s not overkill.) Sure all the extra stuff is heavy, but, um, training?

@@gcn As far as brands go, I use the American brand 45NRTH for wool hats, leather/wool gloves, and winter tights (and drop bar pogies - you can find out what those are on their site) . 45NRTH designs gear for heavy snow, and most people who use their gear are *way* more hard core than me (a lot of Canadians and people in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan). A lot of them ride in -20 to -25°C, which I have done, but like I said, it doesn’t usually get that cold where I ride (almost never below -5°C). I use Sidi for winter boots, with ski socks, Spatz shoe covers (they are a Yorkshire UK based company), a Gore ShakeDry jacket and Q36.5 rain pants for the wet and wind, and Q36.5 deep winter gear for everything else (they make gear for the Alps, and it is fantastic). A lot of this gear is ridiculously expensive (except for Spatz, who have pretty reasonable prices in comparison) and there are times when I’m wearing more money on my person than my bike is worth but, and I can’t stress this enough: it’s glorious to be outside on a lousy day (and be comfortable because I’m dressed properly). The investment allows me to stay fit all winter without the drudgery of indoor cycling, which I never learned to like, so I think it’s worth every penny. I can also recommend Assos winter kit, but I stopped wearing it because my local bike shop started carrying Q36.5, which I feel might be higher quality. [and, no, I’m not a shill for any of these brands. I wish I was, but alas, I’m just a guy who refuses to remain indoors.]

Its worth considering training the mental side of endurance, particularly if you are looking at endurance across multiple days. Being familiar with your decision making while fatigued is incredibly important and you can become familiar by building up your length of rides. Its quite simply been a life saver for me. Another benefit is that you will encounter the natural highs and lows of endurance cycling. Take opportunities to know what those highs and lows feel like. If you are going to be adventuring with others then how the dynamic works with all of the highs and lows is really important too. I have found it to be incredibly beneficial to train that aspect of my endurance alongside all of the physical aspects. Something else I would consider training for to improve your endurance is kit. That could be trying out bike fit variations and clothing for comfort across long or multi day rides or bits of equipment like bars, bags, etc. Whats comfortable for a couple hours isn't necessarily comfortable in hour 6 or beyond. Summary... use your physical training to learn as much as possible about the experience before you're in the adventure of your dreams

This is such a great point! The mental side to ultra endurance is super important 👌We sat down with Mark Beaumont to talk about this 👉ukposts.info/have/v-deo/eYllhoSWb2iF0Y0.html - How did you train your mind to cope with these long rides?

I agree. For me once my body is exhausted during long rides I have to 100% rely on mental endurance to keep going. I wish cyclists talked about this more. Once your body is done it’s the mind that keeps you going.

Bananas, dates, dried figs, coconut water. A ham and cheese sandwich. All much healthier, effective and wallet friendly than gunk out of a tube of gunk. They provide fat, protein, as well as carbohydrates all of which are essential for endurance riding. Also essential are the key electrolytes such as calcium, potassium, sodium and magnesium that these foods provide. My current average is 90 Km a day at 30 kph. I have been riding virtually around the world since 26 April 2023 (355 days) and clocked up almost 20,000 Km so far. So they are much healthier than swallowing ultra processed junk that has no nutritional value other than simply empty calories.

@gcn 24 дні тому
have you noticed any gains since fitting the power meter?
@WCIIIReiniger 24 дні тому
@@gcn I am consistently noting gains, because I increased my commute from 7 km to 21 last year. But specifically to the powermeter I noted a few things: A) it is less frustrating to ride slow against head wind, because I can see that I am still doing the work B) The powermeter motivates me to put more power in the downhill parts because riding downhill makes your body think, that you are working, while you are actually recovering C) I use Si's breathing hints regarding controlling my zone switching, so after climbing I ride in zone 2 to use my energy more efficiently. So overall even though I cannot switch gears and I am not following a specific training plan I feel like the powermeter is a huge upgrade. Next month I am going for my first endurance event of 300 km and so far I feel like I can do it.

the MOST important thing you can do is learn how your body responds to training - EVERYONE is unique and their body will NOT respond the same - while generic suggestions can be a helpful guide on where to start and what to look for - ideally you will be monitoring yourself - a coach cannot be INSIDE your head - YOU need to do this - HOW? - track your rides - monitor your data and looks for trends - be subjective and objective - sometimes you might have great data but feel like shyte - other times you feel great but your data says you are shyte - after 2-3 years you will get better at doing this and become your own greatest coach - most athletes rely too heavily on coaches telling them how they feel - sure it is not easy to push yourself or motivate yourself at times but that is where the character building comes in - the rewards will come later - I have been riding peak career seasons back-back-back-back beyond anything I could have imagined when I first started to ride ...

Do you guys think you could make somthing about track cycling training ? 🤔 some basics about how to put together the bike training and the conditioning with gym training, thre really is not too much material about that. For example im a powerlifter who has recently gotten into cycling. And i have decent leg strength i can put about 2000w on ergo. But i find it extremely hard to combine bike work and gym work becouse the bike work also stresses the legs so so much. Ive always been training the aerobic side with the powerlifting but i've never had the same problems trying to fit running (or jogging more likely) with strenght training. So something about that would be much apreciated. I cant be the only one with that problem😂 its so hard to try to combine the required strength/power/anaerobic conditioing for track 🤯🤯🤯

if you want to ride long slow distances, train with long slow distances. if you want to increase your endurance & speed, build your endurance first so youre riding N miles per week consistently then start speed training with intervals (3x20min is a good place to start). add a long ride once a week to keep your endurance up while you work on speed. you got to crawl before you can fly. best of luck.

Ooooohhhh I've been riding almost for a week now doing sa high intensity uphill training and down hill trails and also my favorite trials skills handling. But I've been noticing that I'm getting tired often maybe I need a rest day.

"Crystal cranking" refers to recovery rides, not endurance rides.

Tip # 6 get a bike fit
@Robbertmld 24 дні тому
60 to 70% of ftp is way too hard for those who anaerobic. Aim for maximum of 60% then, not grind at the top of your z2 ‘zone’

@CarpeDiem13x 24 дні тому
It sounds horrible, but it is very doable. I got my first pwoermeter not long ago and discovered that riding @ 120% is not thaaat bad. Painful, yes, doable, yes.

It's not possible physiologically. Maximum is around 6' for highest level trained athletes. Or it's not in one go.

This was too basic there should be more details how much nutrition how about the amount of sodium and electrolytes needed for proper hydration based off of how much cycling was done

@David-qx8jm 24 дні тому
Let me sum this up real quick::::::: do it by pushing your limits on a regular basis. So each time you have a new limit shader it run over it push it to new hights. Don't believe me check the other thirty thousand video's on this very subject. At least a hundred on this very channel. Yeah they like beating that dead horse here at gcn lol Yeah i know your going to keepemcoming

So many things... Generally, I love your content, but please don't go about telling people how to train in such an unvarnished and misleading way. It's great that you sometimes have input from scientists, and I get that you can't always include that, but then please don't present these "tips" as if they are the truth. You're making it sound like you HAVE to ride more than 2 hours per ride to get fitter and that you improve your "maximum power" by doing 4-12 minute efforts, which is far from true. A lot of people are watching these videos and are thereby misled by videos like this, thinking that you are experts in training. I would still love for you to make videos like this one, but please say aloud that these are what you believe and are "Tips," not "The way" to get fit because a lot of your points aren't valid from a scientific point of view.

You didn't mention the most important tip for building endurance; recovery. Especially sleep and not just any kind of sleep but quality sleep. Meaning REM and deep.
