    Very cool indeed.

    Stricker is too cheap to spend money on a coach, where is he donna find the cash for EPO. And even if he did have the cash, he would want a guarantee that his body reacts positively to the drugs, lets say...10% improvement off the bat.

    Definitely more time on the bike - particularly during my core Hubbing hours of 08:00 and 23:59

    You have a wealth of information at your fingertips, a whole bunch of hubbers who would have been happy to provide you with advice for free. Instead you have taken to acting like a right prat. I doubt you will get your 4w/kg any time soon. Most power to weight calculations don't take into account additional weight contained in the head due to being unbearably obnoxious.

    Strong moving goal posts, where did 10% come from? I would charge you R10k for each month if I was a coach, the additional surcharge is for dealing with your pathetic attitude. Hows that sound?
  6. pe3nguin
    Nah man Stricker pumping the 5w/kg, he just doesnt have a good lead out train and cant convince anyone his services are worth the salary he is demanding.

    Casual mention of 5 or...you know 5.5 because they are interchangeable. Jumping from 5 to 5.5 will be the hardest thing any of us can ever imagine to do
  8. pe3nguin
    Let's see, you are aiming for 5w/kg. So imma assume we are working off 4.5 and you weigh 70kg. This puts you at 315w and you are looking for another 5% so lets call it 15w. 8 week block, with two feedback sessions from a coach who will spend the time analyzing your workouts. I think you can splurge R2k and get your results.

    Excessive punctuation aside - this man is right. Your head has been up your butt for so long I could probably convince you its a hat. And since everyone is out to scam you, I would try and make you pay for your nice hat as well.

    If I were looking for a coach, I would be paying for INSIGHT. I doubt I would need an entire years worth of coaching to realise if I am not receiving value for my Randelas. Your thinking has been so backward this entire thread it hurts. Sure, you could offer coaching services and you might even trick people into paying you for a few months, but you would offer negligible insight and your scam would dry up. Coaches arent looking to rip you off kid, its a matter of offering their insight to help you realize your goals. If your expectations dont align with their insight, surely you stop spending the money. You speak as if the only option is to spend an entire years worth of coaching money and this will guarantee immediate success. When do you start holding yourself accountable for negligible performance gains?

    And thats why there are so many second hand units for sale. These PMs are clearly broken! This thing should have added at least 30 watts to my FTP! Where are mah gainz!?

    How do you justify paying X amount to your physician and Y amount to your lawyer and Z amount to the waitor at the Mugg&Bean? How do you justify paying for a service? Well - you are paying for someone else time. You dont appreciate the service received for the going rate - go somewhere else? I work in tax, you want my assistance, you pay for my time? You may well get the same outcome somewhere else for cheaper or more expensive for that matter, but that is irrelevant to my time - surely?

    Professional experience informs the following statement: Don't hold your breath.

    Mods will merge them eventually...right?... xD

    Of course he does. Executive director in charge of shenanigans and ****-posting

    And I have a stiffy for Lachlan :3

    Yes. The limited squad sizes are entirely dependent upon a Nation's UCI ranking points. Elite men for example: Flanders gets 10 RSA gets 3 Wallonia gets -1

    Any faces being pulled up that ramp are completely warranted. [Edit]: Flashbacks to last year and the sounds of broken spokes.

    There is something primal about a 20min FTP test. If you ignore numerical comparison, it is the great equalizer. Everyone is a ******* shell of a human afterwards. Beauty in brutality.
  20. pe3nguin
    Its suppose to be brutal. You are suppose to dread your FTP ride...right up until 19:55min into the test when you know you have crushed it and you can mentally relax for 6 weeks. My eyes usually sweat a little bit and you get comfortable with the taste of iron in your mouth around the 12 minute mark.

    I SAID YELLOW WHITE BOY!

    Those socks need to be yellow with that delicious leeuw :3

    Training and racing with a power meter - Coggan and Allen Great read and fantastic place to start
  24. pe3nguin
    Fantastic response. A bit of humility on a Monday <3 Cool video to boot

    Vomit inducing numbers just thinking about digging that deep.
