It doesn't seem to matter what the Cathro is doing .... I love every edit. It's like being out with an old mate
Noise cancelling headphones or a white noise machine are a MUST for race weekends. Gotta drown out those outside noises for good sleep.
YESSS! Line Guy is still with us! And thus my Monday has been saved!
We're seeing a lot more of Cathro's cheekbones. Hope you're not neglecting the pies too much
I think we are all rooting for you! You are literally living my dream!
Well done. Got to love getting into a monthly contract for a device/app to be told that you should go to bed earlier and sleep longer to fully recover, top science right there.
Sitting at the back o the van next to a tyre wi dug shite on it. Well played sir.
Loving the Cathro content! Awesome stuff. He acts like average Joe, but results are far far from it. Great work.
Good video, keep them coming.
Let's keep the ads and the content seperate. That could have been a really good video with National races getting some much needed publicity, but it was basically 75% advert.
Had to turn down the contrast on my phone when Ben went topless.
Sleep is important but you seem to be putting an awful lot of reliance in the app, do you think it could also add a negative impact as you're already telling yourself you're not going to perform to your best before you start?
my boi shredding the dust bunnies
That thing, to arrive early. It really is a key to calm the nerves and to get in the mood. I always say I want to "own the dojo" by arriving early before a graduation or a test. It really helps a lot.
Is that a mullet? Isnt cathro like 8'15"?
Tuck your shirt in and a bit more aero focus and theres 2 seconds maybe boyo
Hmmm Cathro's Mix......Ha !!
🔥🔥🔥💯
Anyone knows what is the tune at 7:04 ?
This whole whoop thing sounds like a ripoff, you can get a "smart band" for one monthly whoop fee and be settled, I cannot see it offering any more functionality than a Mi band for example, it's still just a wrist band with all the issues associated.
I have found it super helpful i have only been using it for 6 months but its been sick
@@jonahfreedman4986 Not saying it cant be helpful, but being helpful doesnt mean its not a ripoff, all the thing does is tell you "sleep more" etc. all things you can judge yourself no problem, and the "data" provided is based off unreliable sensors, even if it was useful in the first place, I myself can tell when I didnt get enough sleep etc, dont need an app to tell me that (yes, I tried, just because, totally useless)
This thing definitely cannot replace a proper trainer etc. like they seem to sudgest, nor does it organise stuff for you if you are bad at this kind of thing.
How can anyone sleep for 9 HOURS!

Love this dude! His positive attitude and ways of explaining things has me coming back for more!
I think ben is my new favourite presenter. His race videos and how to bike videos are my favourites on pinkbike
Sponsored content should be shown more clearly. Maybe put "ad" or something in the thumbnail?
Definitely, would watch sponsored content from Cathro all day but should be clearer at the start
Indeed
I know I'm a year late , but why do you think that? I'm 8mins into this 10 Min video , and is it because of the woop strap activity he is showing rest and recovery ??? Sorry for not knowing , just wondering what you mean. Sincere question 🤔 😁
Cathro's Magic Marshmallow Trail Mix coming to a bike shop near you, soon 😋
I always sleep like crap before race days or even park days. The nerves and anxious energy just won't let my brain rest. It drives me nuts!
Same, and I cant shit before a race. So annoying
@@PeakTorque Oh no, a pre-race poop is a must!
Thanks boss. Setting achievable goals is a winning formula.
This is so sick brother Cathro race diary’s are sick more of this
Love this guy. Would love to learn and bike with him. 🙌
Loving these videos Ben!!!! So great to have a behind the scenes break down from a real racers point of view!
I found the whoop thingy interesting, but for hobby mountainbiker from central europe its way to expensive for me to even try that.
Ben buy some ear plugs and not cheap rubbish ones but some you'll find in Boots, silicone ones I think they're a French brand but they will transform you nights sleep mate. Great film this. Really enjoyed watching it...Bought me a new 2022 Santa Cruz 5010 S Spec last Wednesday. The sponsorship is def selling bikes - sold me one. Love it too, Stormbringer Purple.
If you want
Ben 👍
Whoop 👎
Clicked so fast
😂 me too
I love cathro's series on how to bike, it's very in depth and precise
Not my boss
Hey i have very strong sleep problems.... So yea 3-4 hours a day is good
Cathro is the best pink bike prosenter his how to bike is a really good advice to go from good level of riding to a great level of riding
Love the videos Ben. I also love watching your progression and just watching your bike handling skills is a joy. Good luck going forward, PB is lucky to have you.
Nice results for an old retired rider! Thumbs up!
Nice yin, big fella! Still got the moxy....
Take that cape off if you wanna go faster !
That intro was so epic haha
Ole noodle arms bringing the heat! Well done!
I love your vibes man you nailed it !
What an amazing watch yet again . So much work goes into every single video . Brilliant 🤩
Great job Ben! Thanks for including and sharing your Whoop data. I use one myself and find it to be extremely beneficial to my riding/health even if my sleep performance and recovery values are less than ideal.
Awesome results Ben! Congrats on checking the goals that you set for yourself. Keep it up!
Excellent presentation Ben. Looking forward to the next.
Love ya Ben
i love seeing ben race and all his content
Love that Van setup!!!!
You looked real fast from here nice run
Earplugs
Van check please!
well done!
Looove it!
3:07 🥵😏
🤘🤘🤘
🤪🤭🤙
I never thought an app could have such usefullness......stuff I'd never even considered......Awesome race diary episode too
Blink you mad freak!! Love your vids btw!! :P
I've just seen your video, so congratulations on 15th place .This is the speed I'd love to achieve but at 53 I'd be pushing it . I wear body armour now lol .Keep pushing young man and you'll get your results.
*SWEET* Don't Care that it's a Whoop(s) product promo.. The *CATHRO* content is FUN.. Thanks Pb!
hey Ben ,i have a suggestion for possibly helping you sleep better. silicone ear plugs while sleeping work wonderful. get them at local drug store.
Well in Ben representing the silver shredders . Love all your content man 🙌🏾👍🏾
Think this shows the biggest con of whoop. Telling you on race weekend that you're not recovered, that's all you need. You're not going to have a peaceful night's sleep in the run up to an event. Use the metrics for training, race week, stick it in a drawer and just be chill
Shows how much a full werks ride means. It’s easy to rest and get right when every part but the riding is taken care of.
You did it all on your own!!!
Good vid, need to list the music your using…. Good tunes🤘🏼🙏🏻
Hey Catherine what happened to you sponsors for privateer?
I enjoy your videos, the are full of energy and good, sound suggestions and comments. I share these with youth because you are very inspirational.
Another belter of a video 👌🤘🏾 Ben you are a legend and can’t wait for the next video
Love it - the honest reality of just getting it done while soaking up various bumps experienced along the way.
I always used to set goals of time behind the winner, but I never hear it talked about these days. Great series, will be sending this to a young pinner I know for advice.
I think learning to read your own body signs would be a lot more beneficial
Ben been watching for a while now, great work 👍🏻
Keep the content coming through off season 🤟oh yeh, and well done 🤙
I normally don't care but 6 mins in and this nothing but a 10min ad - ridiculous but whatever.
early Cathrovision vibes!
Just getting started but I love all the content we're getting, you are absolutely killing it these days and I have no idea how you do it!
Like it Ben, well done!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Good vid
