Awesome report mate. If you don't mind, allow me to help you with terminology: For the team time trial (or a breakaway that is working together) we call that a 'pace-line'. Being on the front of that is called 'taking a pull'. There's an etiquette to this: when it's your 'turn', just smoothly pull through and hold the speed (not the power). Resist the urge to ramp up the power because you will drop the guy behind you (faux pas) and definitely drop the guy who just pulled before you (major faux pas - you will not be invited back). You will understand this if it happens to you because you will be blown as you pull off and chasing back on is incredibly painful. Keep killing it!
@@MarkLewisfitness No you wont :)
Great content, commentary, clear and sound ideas too! looking forward to the gym set up, have a similar size garage and been thinking how best to set up going forward. Appreciate your work on this, keep it going mate 👌🙌
Just catching up on these as a new subscriber. Had to pause at 12:45 after rolling around laughing so much Mark. You crack me up
Welcome aboard!
I have the ZRL TTT tonight on R.G.V. First one as well! Love your channel, always funny content mixed in there.
ahaa The dumbell bit. Loving the content.
😂😂😂😂😂
Government should be enforcing exercise on everyone during lockdown 😂 thanks for the ride on yesterday, came at a great time 💪🏻
You've gotta test out the new steering that zwift has implemented for the kickr bike mark! nothing huge but an interesting feature to check out
if you cant get back on with in the first few seconds of being dropped ,best till wait save energy till the next group and win the sprint ) also love the weights hahaha
Really enjoyed watching this! Thank you for posting!
Good luck for race tonight. Being big will be an advantage for this course. One tip - try not to drop your team on your turn. You want to go hard but keep an eye on bottom of screen
@@MarkLewisfitness nice idea
@@MarkLewisfitness Try this out: zwiftinsider.com/bluetooth-eracing-controller/ - cheap as chips and an awesome addition to a Zwift rig. It was designed with TTT in mind.
The deep breaths to suppress the rage 😂, I can relate
Ever thought about leading a Zwift group ride with the followers?
Love it! The look on your face, discovering that the weight ad-on’s doesn’t fit, ROFL. It’s up there with falling of the bike doing AdZ! Question: The fact, that Nixon is pulling you, is that considered to be doping? 😉
I bet a husky would kill a 5K by pulling ya.
Welcome to the Bolt Racing Team!
Hey Mark - competed in my first zwift race today thanks to some encouragement from your content. I am particularly interested in how you achieve balance between resistance training and cycling; I am finding my legs are quite beat up from 4-5 hours of cycling/week alongside high volume leg days. Any suggestions and/or future videos about this topic? Cheers from Canada!
Morning Mark. Given the number of posts over the last 10 days has dropped to below average I felt compelled to send a message saying I hope you and family are all safe and well. Cheers.
How do you manage lifting weight and cycling? Legs are a real issue for me, got doms to deal with after smashing squats, so itll be a good 2 or 3 days before I feel like I can put decent power down again on the road bike. Upper body is an issue when I go ride the MTB as well. Assuming you do some sort of structured lifting and dont just chuck weight small amounts of weight about for the sake of it?
Love the attitude to training mate!!
Curious to get details on nixons post run recovery drink/food , stretch ( sofa lie down ) , etc
I was wondering if you have had any trouble with the kickr bike. I have had sweat damage to the gears, resulting in new handlebars. Also the top crank cracking right through the 175 hole, resulting a new bike. I am a 13stone rider and am worried this will happen again as I have only had it for 6 months. Thought it would be interesting hearing your thoughts.
Great video, where did you get your weight bench from as they are very difficult to find in stock?
Great stuff, very enjoyable
Loving your videos. Keep them up
Light weights only? Time under tension.
More race content please! 🥳
well done!
How do you go about joining a team? Did they contact or you or do you just...join??
Mark do you do muscle up and dips on the rings ?
@@MarkLewisfitness hahah i bet i reckon you could maintain your strength on the rings, I’ve got a set and they are excellent and good fun if you get some of the calisthenics moves down !
Maybe on the "Above Average" board you could put the subscriber count, to really rub it in.
Amuses me too!
So what are we calling you these days, Mr. Podium or Mr. Above Average? Obviously can't keep up....😂
Time to start labelling the drawers insultingly and making your kid stand next to them in the videos... see how long it takes for them to notice they're standing next to "
