Love this! Great advice. I ride with a some guys that are always trying to drop me. Usually they can in the beginning, but by the end of the long ride I'm often times seen being the one pulling us back home. The long endurance rides I have under my belt are much more effective than the weekend warrior training plan. It's really hard to convince some people that you have to train in the lower heart rate zones to build that base needed to go long and hard eventually. I guess science doesn't override ego. LOL Keep in mind, I'm good at pointing this out to people because I'm super efficient on the bike, but when it comes to running I'm like them, except I'm aware I need to train slow and boring during my runs for now. 😩
thx, these are really good + valuable advices for systematical training!
Got your swim book Taren! It has helped a lot on my swims! Going for Waco 70.3 in 2021. Giving myself as much time as possible! And doing what people call beginner friendly half. But also going for Daytona Challenge in 2020
Spot on. I have improved in all 3 phases after taking a year off. With the right training knowledge and patience, rewards can be reaped. I’m doing the 80/20 training now for the first time and Iwill be signing up with you Trainiacs after IMStG as I set my focus on Challenge Daytona.
Damn Taren so close to that 100K subs. Hope you get there soon!
Great video Taren!! I’m a seasoned cyclist but new to the triathlons. Keep up the great work 👏👏👏
Congrats a few days early on 100k subscribers!! I’ve been here almost from the beginning and still pick up little nuggets here and there from your content. Congrats on your success and don’t pay attention to these people who have nothing better to do than complain. This just in...... advertising makes Tarens’ vids possible and is his means of income.
Great info, as always
Agreed on the training groups. Training alone sucks at first but it's much more efficacious if you're a motivated individual. Once you reap the benefits of sticking with the program and making marginal sustainable gains over a long period of time you start to prefer it.
Great video 📹 just what I needed to hear ❤
This will be my first year trying low heat rate training, I'll be getting your book for the bike and swim too I'm sure. I'll also be starting my 2 week team trainiac membership trial, and will likely sign up permanently!
Keep the camera rolling rawhide! 👍
This helps a lot, I really crush myself, crit training on Tuesdays, grind 30-40 miles on Saturdays. I tell you I I’ll do long Saturdays swims on Weds & Fridays, thank u!
FABULOUS video!!! U ROCK!!!!
Works for me. With an arthritic knee, my run is diabolically slow... But I swim well and bike ok. Common advice "work on your weakness". Well, in my last HIM I ran slightly longer than I biked. All the work in the world isn't gong to significantly improve my run due the physical limitation of the knee, but I could get another 20mins on the bike possibly with some significant focus (My 50m TT time is about 20:00 faster than my paced HIM bike (but 8k shorter)). Biking also easier on the knee. I think you've released me a bit! Cheers.
Good advice.
love love LOOOVEEEEEE this video!
As a guy who love training but have huge amount of hours at the office, Im happy to see such videos of you.
I use to do a year and a half ago, when I was at the best shape of my life (as I thought at least) 2:44 bike split. now, with 2 training on weekdays and one more leisure on weekend I actually managed to do 2:13 in a race when I wanted to "keep my legs for the run".
kep doing what you're doing coz you do it just GREAT!
Hope you will qualify to Kona as I really see you get there soon...
I might be there. as a supporter only (COMMON, I have 41 mins PB on the 1.9km swim lol)
Many thanks 🙏
I wish there was a book I could buy that explains this in detail. 🇨🇦🤠🇨🇦
About to hit 100K, congratulations. Is it true you’re giving your Ventum One to the 100 thousandth subscriber :-)
Another great vid. I'm doing my first HIM (Galveston 70.3) scheduled April 5 (assuming not postponed). Since I'm new, I don't have a tri/tt bike (too much $ for just getting started). I also don't have power meter (again $). I do track my HR. Can you address pacing? My thought is to stay in the upper zone 2, because I don't want to ruin my legs for the run. My training is 10-13 hours/week, except in recovery weeks. I'm just 4 weeks out. How should I do my bike pacing?
Are you going to make a triathlon run foundations book?
Do the team traniac workouts include this sort of approach- ie, lots of low intensity with higher intensity sprinkled in? Are the weekly set of workouts designed this way?
During these sessions are you going outside your MAF heart rate Zones?
Even though this is really good content, I think it deserves to be said that it’s less hard to improve by an impressive percentage of you start low (slowest in age group) than it would be if you were starting of halfway the pack or better. Nonetheless your tips are very valuable, much appreciated 👍🏻
TT, out of curiosity, how much of the 54% increase was attributed by the progress in your power and how much was attributed from money spent (bike, fitting, gear, etc)?
Gears only make you feel faster
I often do this workout with 15 or 20 min sweet spot in the end. Thats brutal. 30/30 always hurts!
Hello Taren I was wondering how does one contact you for Ironman training ? Thank you very much
price on the bike e-bok?
Reminds me so much of White Goodman from dodgeball
I always do 50-70 miles rides in z2-3 but cant increase past an avg 15.5 mph
COULD YOU GET THE SAME BENEFITS of doing long distance things on a gym's spin bike?
I couldn't agree more. I find cyclists are notorious for this, always trying to race each other and biking way too hard. This morning I had to drop out of a group ride because I wasnt feeling 100% during the week and the fact that we were riding for 100km and all went out way too fast (30-35km per avg) on the flats, I just really don't want to dig myself a hole and then have to grind myself in the last 30km back. I feel like saying can't we all just chill and actually enjoy the ride?
I don’t compete, but will say after putting low hr training in place on the bike last year, along with short intense sessions i was amazed at how good i felt and the pace i could sustain when out riding. I was dropping buddies who trained just as much but always train in the zone.
What kind of bike were you on in your first race? You definitely have increased fitness, but on a bike split where you averaged 16mph in an Olympic, it REALLY makes me wonder what kind of bike you were on. lol
Ja man, I will listen to Bob Marley on my long rides now!
I’m creating my own team “pissing contest team”
How long should the long ride be if you’re training for a full ironman?
well, according to the logic of this video (120km for an HIM) they should be around 250km...😂
You’re comparing bike splits of different races? 😂 compare you’re Wattage of the races. That’s what’s comparable, not the time of different races
Marketing. Need to live somehow :) works on newbies
So are you questioning that his ride, at near the back of the pack, had a comparable wattage to his ride where is was mid pack or near the front of the pack, and this whole time thing is a sham. I would like to talk to my previous race organizers about this, and let them know they should stop judging me on time during the race. Some things can be simplified for the ease of delivery. And honestly if someone could make my time go down and use less wattage, that would be the real marketing claim.
@@kevinhicks1004 He is not questioning. It is the same or near same.
First!!
Usually really like your videos but this is a bit ridiculous. Yes you probably have trained well and you are trying to sell your book but to not at least mention the approximately 10k bike you are now on is a bit ridiculous
As a professional cyclist having ridden with numerous top end bikes and tech as well as having used some pretty shit equipment. I can genuinely tell you that the high tech equipment accounts for the tiniest of improvements. Unless you're going from basically using a supermarket bike, which Taren wasn't, to the top of the range, the biggest improvements you're ever going to see is from the right training.
Mornay van Heerden absolutely true, but comparing bike splits of different races and call it a bike speed up by 54% is just stupid.
I like Taren and his videos but this one is crap
@@mornayvanheerden3278 I agree, but seeing that his wattage was the same for both races shows that he never really improved in terms of bike speed. However, he might have been stronger allowing him to be better prepared for the run. At the end of the day, 230w is 230w no matter what place on earth you are, so it begs the question, where is taren getting this improvement from?
@@ryangelston2514 I can't find any point in the video where mentioned doing 230w for any two races? And he did mention extensively that he made some really good improvements to his position which also makes a huge difference. Also, if I can get really technical, 230w isn't feally 230w. If you pace a Time Trial properly, applying pressure at the right moments, easing off on other sections, cornering speed etc. I can gaurentee you you will take several minutes out of another guy who is just sitting on 230w like a metronome. This is something Cam Wurf has previously spoken of at length. But, I can't speak for Taren wether he actually applied these techniques. BUT, I do agree mentioning such exact percentages isn't acurate even the slightest because he isn't compating apples with apples, because not one of those races he compared to each other was the same course with the same conditions, regardless of the distance. Your time on a course can differ by minutes just from the morning or afternoon on the same day depending on wind speed, air pressure etc.
@@o11378 I agree using percentages is cluthing straws a little but, at the end of the day the advice he's giving is still really good advice. If people don't want to buy his books or even watch his videos, then don't. But why leave such negative comments?
Bla bla marketing crap. Anyone with a bit more experience understands. Sad for the newbies. Show us any significant wattage improvement over last years if any at all.
