Oreo Valley Sprint Triathlon || Phase 1 TT 

Thanks from all of us lol.

I agree. Swim and relax. Feel the beauty of the water.

Was it the ventoux ven-top what time did you do 😷👍.? Well done by the way😀

@@krisbowditch827 No, just the petit boucle. I did it in 5min. So it was nearly a sprint @ 5.5w/kg :D

From what head and see from the pros the Alphas are actually slower, the Next% seem to be the king of the hill right now.

Isn’t Lionel sponsored by Skechers?

@@damiensoong5638 by the look of it not anymore

Doesn’t he have a shoe sponsor that’s not Nike

@@oliverleibbrandt8067 his trisuit still has sketcher on there which he has been with for years, but im guessing he wont be for 2021

Shepley's a Canadian..?

Arizona is a great climate even in the winter ☀️☀️☀️ get past 8:30 in the morning 👍

Not really, it’s all relative.

great advice. Lionel, I hope you read this, is not new to you I am sure, you have heard this before, you know what I am going to write in your brain, now you need to make it functional at an emotional level so your ego doesn't take the best out of you. Swim speed = propulsion gains - drag losses. Most of the time we crap on the losses trying to increase propulsion. I think that is why go you slower on race day, you are trying to keep up with others based on effort not smoothness. Work on your form over distance, be Zen son You still have pro years left to close that mental gap. With Love and respect from an old fart fan

I disagree. Look at his swim speed for that 1000 yards. That equates to 1.26min/100m in a 50m pool. Don't forget he was swimming in a 25 yard pool. Lucy Charles would be swimming around 1.03 pace. It is clear that volume is not going to fix his issues.

He’s tried volume. He’s swimming lots of mileage and managed 1.25min/100m pace for a 1000 yard TT. That’s what a typical 11 year old swimmer would average, swimming 3 times a week. Clearly there is a technique issue. You don’t need to be a Rhodes scholar to figure that one out

Lionel is a class act, Nike are scumbags who support China your comment is ignorant.

@@timob12 ??

@@pochipsino Lionel shouldn't use equipment that supports China. Its like supporting Nazi's

@@timob12 wtf

@@felipepalmerola7108 what part confused u? If your buying products related to China aka Nazi's u are a POS

i thought the same! maybe he changed sponsor hmmm

@@Panajotoff1 in the live Stream he said in Chat that Skechers is not a sponsor anymore. No reason or anything given, so we‘ll have to wait

@@Panajotoff1 I don't actually believe Nike sponsor any triathletes other than maybe Vincent Luis. Definitely no Ironman athletes anyway!

The 15:08 makes more sense now ....

@@CoachPursuit Lucy Charles, Cam Wurf...

And pullbuoy during Run?

He meant Oro valley :)

Auto correct working its magic 🤣

I agree

I’m a fanboi

Eric lagerstroms is good too.

@@phxrsx Didnt know, I will check it out

Of course he eats oreos... with a linear relation to how many hours he trains. (:

People focus waaaay too much on diet

@@christoph_wattever how did you come to that conclusion ? I guess its import since its a part of recovery and that is the part where you actually gain from your hard training.

@@lucaschniefer6455 yes, obviously it's important to get all your nutrients in and not be overweight. But as long as you're not deficient, it's icing on the cake. People should focus on the cake.

@@lucaschniefer6455 I would guess something like: If one trains just a little bit ( amateur ) getting right nutrients and not to much energy is important. If one trains 15h/week or more putting out twice the power of a amateur they need to eat so extremely much that the essential base nutrients will never become a real problem because they need to eat so much to get all the energy. Obviously it's not smart eating weird times and kfc, but after learning some basics about nutrients and diets it's actually easier in my opinion. 1 cookie/hour for an amateur... 1package of cookies/hour for someone as lionel sanders ;).
