      @@rubarb1275 do you prefer this style or more action-packed sessions?

      @ it's good to have a mixture of both. I think in this type of video, you might want to slow the delivery down a little bit as some of the information is complex and can be difficult to understand. So it could be broken up a bit with some additional bits added in order to give context. But the most important thing is that you give a unique insight which not many others can do, which is the aspect that makes your channel different and compelling. Hope that helps.

    I live at 5200’ above sea level. I really want to go run a race at sea level just to see what happens.

    Do you think some athletes are using declaring altitude training to game the blood passport system or whereabouts system while microdosing EPO?

    • @Elliot_Giles
      @Elliot_Giles  หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      I'd assume the system is much more complex than this. The video was aimed to be more educational to inform/explain and highlight the benefits of altitude

    • @PerryScanlon
      @PerryScanlon หลายเดือนก่อน

      If they are a low-responder then yes. High-responders will naturally produce more EPO from the kidneys. With the EPO test updates, athletes may be switching to molidustat.

    • @PerryScanlon

      But living low, training high won't do much for red blood cells. It would impair mitochondria adaptations but possibly improve myoglobin and ventilation muscles.

      @@Oscarwkeys Hey Oscar, in 10 years you'll be 21, and that's when your real career starts. For now, enjoy running, but don't fixate too much on the numbers.
      For perspective, picture yourself 10 years ago, and you'll realise how much time you have to enjoy the sport before focusing on PBs.
      Plus, 19 minutes is crazy quick for an 11-year-old; if you're already running close to these times, I'll remember your name and keep an eye out for you in the future!

    what brand is that lactate meter? Thanks :)

      Hey, its Eaglenos

      @ thought so. Limited reviews online. How does it compare with your past options? Thanks

    • @Elliot_Giles
      @Elliot_Giles  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @ We compared it to a lactate scout monitor and a lab machine. All gave slightly different results (lab machine most accurate) but all within a similar number.
      The Eaglenos is direct from the manufacturer, which drastically reduces price, whereas, for many of the other brands, you pay the middleman, I.e. A company buys in bulk and rebrands to their name and increases the price by 50%
