    I passed by your channel 2-3 months ago. I was preparing for a race and I have 2 months to spend for training. I am a long endurance ride enthusiast. Then I watched all your videos and kept all the studies, training structure, nutrition and racing strategies by heart. Come the day of the race, I felt stronger though not well prepared given the time constraint. Managed to finish 5th on my age category and 11th overall on the gravel category. That was the first time that I went up on the stage to claim that 5th place certificate. To sum it all, I learned a lot watching your videos. Applied and executed all the knowledge. Thank you for sharing and keep on doing these videos. Fist bumps from the PH
    P.S. Old man Dylan is POG lol

    One of the things that make pacing a 100 miler so difficult is that you're most likely peaking. So, your legs will feel EXTREMELY good at the start. When they feel that good, you just want to hammer. It takes enormous discipline to control that, but if you do you'll be rewarded in the last half of the race!

    1. Is there any scientific evidence that openers the day or so before a race help?

      Magnesium insufficiency and deficiency are related to A-fib. Endurance athletes really need to watch their nutrition. They burn so much sodium, potassium, zinc, and especially magnesium. Magnesium Chloride is the most studied form and has a higher absorption rate.

    Dylan I'd actually like to hear what you think about the deepening talent in gravel and mtb events. Lots of people seem to hate that "Alt" racing is becoming legitimized but I think that's actually a toxic perspective that only succeeds in keeping cycling niche and not visible to a larger audience. Obviously as an athlete you have a unique perspective that I would be interested in hearing. You did somewhat address this a bit in your Spirit of Gravel video.

I actually was talking to some random bloke at the cafe who had actually custom built a bike out of spare parts just like that. I thought the set up was fascinating and said, that thing might not be enough for bike for here (think piles of rocks rather than “single track” ) but would be great for colorado.

  • @CatManDoSocial

    Holy cow! 160 bpm average for 6:46? 4,917 KJ expenditure doesn't tell half the story. Your total calorie burn was probably double that. Especially for mountain biking, even though it wasn't super technical. Very nice effort. It's great to see you on the MTB again too. Great video as usual.

    • @nicholi1246
      @nicholi1246 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Probably. Most pros training full time do relatively the same stuff, so assuming you’re resting and eating correctly, genetics are going to be the determining factor for how good you are. Dylan’s pretty young though, so im sure there’s still a lot of room for improvement

    Hello Dylan,
    Thank you so much for your science-backed videos; best ones I have (randomly) come across on the internet. I thoroughly enjoyed your interviews with Stephen Seiler by the way!
    My query: I was wondering whether you could review the various time-trial positions in terms of aero gains. I am particularly interested in your thoughts on the "praying manta" position. When I look at Graeme Obree in his "crouch" position", it seems to me this was an extreme version of the praying manta position (and it turned out to be the most aero in wind tunnel experiments).
    I am still tinkering with the angle of my tri bars, but I personally tend to feel comfortable with my bars at a very wide angle (maybe up to 45 degrees). Is there such a thing as an optimal angle for tri bars? I appreciate there won't be any silver bullet...
    Thank you!

    • @roadbike1014
      @roadbike1014 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Pushing the saddle forward makes it more upright in relation to the BB, allowing the saddle to be raised to a "taller" over the bb point. This gives a more open thigh angle equating to more thigh room under the chest while extremely bent over aero bar position because of the very slack MTB seat tube. It also limits how much thigh muscle you can use and the power stroke and the use of the saddle as an anchor to push from. So it's a big trade off. It's a time trial position. For longer rides like these where the slower speed limits the effectiveness of being aero, isolating muscle for the sake of aero might not be the best choice

    @Dylan Johnson... Where did you get those the Control Tech bar ends they look almost brand new? Also you better hang onto to those, as good bar ends are hard to find these days. Bike manufacters and bike shops don't want to stock them as unmechanically inclined cyclists were trying to install them on carbon handle bars that didn't have the reinforced handle bar tips that Ritchey Logic bars have which was leading to handle bar failures. Also with the rise of riser bars, less XC riders were interested in running them despite Ned Overender, John Tomac, and Thomas Frischknecht winning World Championships with them.
    Thanks for the video and comentary on the Leadville 100, it is the best youtube content I have seen yet on the race. Also nice job on the 20th place.

    I wonder what Niki's race report was like? "Steady 6 hour level 2 training ride" 🤠

      Doubt it, the limitation at altitude is o2 delivery, not muscle power. I live at 9,300', and ride between 5000' and 12000'; when I go to ride at lower elevations, my limitation is muscle power, and my O2 delivery (respiration rate) is very low. The weight Dylan lost likely helped out a lot on the climbs as climbing is all about W/Kg.

      @@barrowsworm1226 It is about weight distribution when you're climbing. But to lose that weight in the way he did weakens you. It's not like he lost it. Riding it off..

    Lance was only around 6:30. He was probably also 20 lbs heavier.
