- It's not every day that a world champion and top 10 enduro racer spend the day with you to try and improve your mountain bike posture - but it's not an easy task! I have a LOT of mobility to improve and practice drills to do...and that's for the next couple of videos!

Ok
Just a suggestion friend... try riding more on hardtail, i think ur body is just to used to full squish, it might help, you never know.. love the videos cheers!!
From that video it does look like you a little far back and could just move your weight forwards a bit which would naturally add a bit more weight on the front. :)
I really like these pro videos because they definitely help.
They help me too! 😂
@@PaulThePunter plz more of them ;-)
Paul you should ride a hardtail because it will help you use your 200mm of travel on your legs and you will become smooth and faster on a big enduro bike.
This this this
pumptrack is a really good way to develop this kind of skills
Great tip. And switch beck every now and then. Just to remind yourself, that you're part of the suspension too, so you don't make the bike do ALL the work...even though it can do a LOT of it :)
Or a rigid bike even
Even better no frame at all, screw some SPD shoes to a rear axle and hold the front one in your hands, the ultimate!
Been improving! Solid coaches too!
They are!
@Remy - Possible de nous faire un tuto dans le style "X astuces pour mieux sentir/se connecter avec son mtb"? La position et la souplesse qui va avec est tellement peu vu. Un truc un peu technique et détaillé serait cool pour progresser. Je pense que bcp de gens profiteraient. Merci/Thanks
Yo Rémy

Miranda: Do you KNOW what engaged glutes feel like?
Paul: You're not the first woman to ask me that.
4:51 "Butt big muscle. Use big muscle butt to bike." That was hilarious I love this lady.
Miranda and Remi are seriously two of the funniest and most welcoming riders around. Both always shredding and laughing......just the way I like it. Great vid Paul. Tip - bring them good quality coffee and you'll be in!
I rearely, if ever, write comments, but here I definitely learned a lot. These pros are clearly at a level that they can explain things, which actions have what consequences, and break them down into absorbable pieces. In my opinion this is the best video I've seen from you, Paul. Thanks
a hardtail would be good for you to get your form down before moving to a full sus
cove so true!!!!
I need this "Pro-Help" except for everything that I do...
Haha
lmao same
This is absolutely fantastic! One of the best general riding tutorials on TH-cam I would say!
For me personally I try to think of myself and my bike as two separate units. I sort of need to hover down the trail and my bike is a tool that will keep me on my path when it is positioned right. In order to do so I try to actively „disconnect“ the axis of my seattube and the axis of my spine. The cornering practice from your last video does wonders for this :)
I have always been a big fan of Miranda! We definitely need more Miller timer!
She kills it.
I'm going to watch this video every time I go for a ride lol. I've learned so much from this! (Been riding for only a couple months)
Awesome! Hopefully it helps you have a better time on the bike :)
@@PaulThePunter I'm sure it will. Thanks for the videos!
This was amazingly helpful for me. I've been told that I'm "too still" a lot of times, but this actually showed me what they meant and what to do about it. Time to go practice.
Paul! Do you know what an awesome set of traits it is that you have? You are humble and always asking questions. You take criticism as its intended and you are able to laugh at yourself and the process. Of all the things i have taken from your vids these are the most valuable! You seem truly happy while engaging and riding with others. Thank You!
Absolute legends! Youre a lucky man to be getting tips from them I tell ya! Love your work Paul!!!
Man such videos are so nice. No boring technical explanations for hours, just quick and practical. This helped me a lot!
4:39 😂😂😂 so happy about finding out a posture issue 😂 Great attitude, man! 👍
That was an amazing video. It's easy for us to find some pretty good basics from other videos about dropping a foot, opening up our hips in the corners, body bike separation. On the other hand, this video is some next level riding instructions from Miranda and Remi!!! Definitely the things that most of us advanced riders need to improve our riding game. I'm bookmarking this video to work on these points when I can get out riding again!
Glad you enjoyed it!
One of my favorite videos. Super informative! More of this please!
This was a great video! Entertaining bunch and could see your progression throughout the time. Funny duo those two haha
Fantastic video. I feel I’m exactly like you. Stiff in my hips. If I slow myself down on the trail and concentrate on my body and what it’s doing I feel so much more in control and actually faster. Mountain biking is the absolute best. Stay strong stay safe thanks buddy 👌
No probs!
There is so much great informations/tips coming out of your videos !
love your work :) !
Sweet! Cheers dude.
Man just goes to show how there are so many other levels to this great sport! Great to hear the pros and their insight to pass down to us common mortals. Thanks Paul for being a great guinea pig, great vid!
Dope video, editing skills on point. Riding skills = work in progress! Nice Paul!
Your videos are sick bro I've been progressing thanks to your vids, keep growing man!!
Love the videos. I've been mountain biking years and have learnt all the bad habits and few of the good ones. I found a pump track was a good place to learn to move forward/back on the bike and respond to the terrain.
Awesome analysis from Miranda - her explanations are really clear and helpful.
Great video and coaches! I've been biking for years and still learned a few things.
"Filling the hole" That is so good... I am going to use that. I always show people vids of a top pro supercross rider hitting the whoops and how their head stays completely still. On the MTB trail it is hard to explain that sometimes. Filling the hole will help, I believe.
"Try this at home"! Not something you usually see in a video. Love it!
You're improving your bike body separation! Yeah Miranda and Remi, so fun and helpful.
Cheers!
Yo dude love the little video clinics you’re doing with pros! I figure out how to apply tips for myself and get better watching it, so I’d be totally happy if you wanna doing some more ❤️
Love this.. keep up those type of videos.. tip and trick with the pro. Improve your ride..
Paul....Awesome video buddy🙌🙌well done and thankyou because showing that is giving a better understanding of being more fluid with my riding💯👍😉love your channel and how is your van going?
Awesome vid. Looking forward to the cones vid.
Great Video Paul. I suffer from the same shit posture and I can feel it in my riding. Very informative yet nicely done with a bit of humor.
Nice video with great point of view👍, good tips and have a luxury trainer like Miranda !! 👏👏👏
Wow that was your best episode ever! Funny and I learned a lot. Miranda nailed it!!
Thank you Paul ! Another Awesome very helpful video !!!
Really enjoyed that 🤙 learnt loads, cheers!
Hahaha Miranda's face at the beginning is priceless!!! Good job!
Probably the most useful MTB video I’ve ever seen...subscribed!
This was sooo good! I definitely have a couple of the same issues in my riding.
Spend time on a DJ bike at the pump track and all this will come together unbelievably well. The pump track has been the best training for my mountain biking. It has improved my ability to read the trail, find flow and rhythm by pumping holes and rolls, rail corners with speed and power, and jumping with confidence. Plus, you can spend a ton of time sessioning one spot/feature and focusing on a single skill or technique at a time.
Most instructive mtb video I've watched. "Aha's" per minute are off the chart.
This is a really great coaching video. Just went for a pinned ride and made a point of pushing the bars up/down to meet the terrain and pumping through low spots. Definitely better this way than just being a passenger along for the ride.
Awesome vid. Remy’s helmet is so big 80s. Love it.
Everytime you do one of these pro videos I take something away from it. Jealous you have contact with so many excellent riders! 👍🔥
I really liked this ride critique video. One of your best.
Great video, some humility is good for the soul. Keep it up Paul.
This was super helpful. Thanks for making it :)
Punter, this is the BEST vlog I ever seen so far👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The Motto of the day - Engage the Glutes! Thanks for sharing. That was a good laugh and learned something today. Win-win.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I think Paul nailed it when he said every office worker can relate to this.
It’s not just about technique, it’s about having the shoulder, core glute and quad muscles you can use.
If you are a weekend biker who has spent the last 20 years in an office 5 days a week tapping a computer, it’s a lot of work to reverse the muscle wasting effects of that.
I love Miranda & Remi! They are the cutest & funniest couple. I wish they would start their own channel! 🤩
Amazing video, learning a lot from it.
Yoga with Adrienne solves everything :) Sweet video, Miranda and Remi make good coaches!
Another great video Paul. Like the cornering tutorial with Oli. Really detailed technical assistance.😀 FYI As older rider (that’s right-looking at you) hip flexibility is the first to go so any dedicated stretching or yoga intended to alleviate hip binding will help. What stretches do the pro’s do?
Would love to see more of this, some wire frame graphics to explain as a visual aid would be awesome
Nice one you three! Looking quick Paul :). Now for the high line on pamp!!
Haha the classic. When it's back open 😉
That was awesome! I do the same thing you do man I’m stiff as a board. I think a lot of it though I just lack of confidence.
Fantastic tips!
the tip about pushing against the ground is going to help me with berms, I hated berms and would never go fast on them, thanks guys :)
Great video! Please make more like this
Hey Excellent Vid, i too even a regular mtbiker enjoyed tried to understand the Video but enjoyed it too . . .Nice ppl🇺🇸🌵🍮
Awesome vid Paul!
Cheers Tyler!
nice tips from the pros mr. Punter. I believe that by letting your elbow out makes you more dynamic and much easier to navigate and move.
Any vid with these two gets an automatic like. Thanks Paul.
oh man, so hard to watch, he just looks like a passenger on his bike haha
but i love the effort and committment to become a better rider!
really good tips, thanks
I feel this a continuation of the stuff Casper Woolley was trying to teach you, and us about allowing your limbs to move the bike in instead of your hunch and head with it. I also feel that it might be a bad habit taken from roadies. I am going to try practice thinking about starting turns with my knee and trying to reset to a neutral position after the turn. Magic knee, lol😆!
Nice work :)
We want more videos like this !!
Great video..entertaining! I’m a stiff one as well which explains why I crash so much!
OMG funniest thing I have seen in a while as she mocks you!! Your humility is top notch thanks for letting us laugh at and with you. I also need help with this!! I'm a hunchback too. Do we have core strength weakness or what's up? Can't wait to finish this out and find out how to fix this
Do more rowing
More of this! I can see the difference but I ride like you Paul.
Keep doing it great video. Gracias
That's it. This channel is now called "Paul the Hunchback".
I need this pro help as well Paul LOL Nice video!
Paul what’s uppp vids are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks dude!
Haha, loved the intro, do more of that I reckon.
Other idea:
Get a roadie to try downhill, Or! Force a roadie to do downhill, Haha!!
All those details to improve, I learned a lot... and here I thought all we had to do was sing down the trail. Bummer hahahahaha
Probably get hate for saying this but I utterly changed my shoulder / back posture from years sitting at a desk.... by taking up golf. I now get up from my desk every hour during the day and do push ups ( I work at home luckily). As far as thought process, I'm no pro rider but what always made me faster on a bike (motox or mtb) is to have a "ragdoll" mantra - just reminding me to stay loose and not fight the bike, let the bike do the work and maintain a strong core around which my limbs take up all the slack. Not sure if this follows the advice here but it works for me.
This video is soooo good. More like this. Would you say that activating your glute's means they need to be fitter? like stronger? Are your glutes really sore after working on this?
The fact that Miranda has the deepest voice
Great video! Everyone watching has something to learn from #Miranda Miller! Legend and bad ass! Please do more like this with her and Remy!
Good instruction video. I watched some pro XCO videos and I noticed that there typically was little active engagement of their bodies on the flat or downhill sections of the race course unless there were features that required it. Definitely a lot on the uphill portions. Perhaps Miranda and Remi have some insight on this. Perhaps it is because the XCO racers typically don't have dropper posts so they are unable to active engage their hips, arms, etc. to the same extent. Or maybe because the downhill portions are used to recover ?
Too funny. Miranda has talent (beyond mtn biking).
What trail is this, it looks dope! Especially with Remi and Miranda riding it!!!
Really informative video definitely some stuff to work on while focusing on technique and not going full pace. Even more excited to see sections I spent the better part of a week fixing up on Angry Midget being ridden (humble brag).
Oh sick! Yeah can definitely see the work done, nice one :)
Really enjoyed this
Sweet! Thanks Jake.
I love how's there's helping people hit their first Black Trail and then theirs Paul getting told he's not doing it right from pro's
Best intro ever
Haha cheers Phil!
Damnit, Paul. I came here to be entertained, and I ended up learning stuff! Ugh! Miranda and Remi are too good. 😆
Haha every day is a school day alan
MTB ALAN agreed Alan.
Amen to the hunch.
🙏
for someone busy getting into mountain biking this video is very informational
not going to have full squish
its not in the budget so im probabley going to have to be even more supple
Biking is biking :)
LMAO at the Yoga w/ Adrienne comment
I love the Intro!
Thanks!
Love the first 20sec😂
Just sing damn it! lol
