aees Added a reply to Why you are fading at the 15-minute mark (and the problem with your off-bike training)
5/9/2026 3:34pm If possible, get an e-bike if you want to have the z2 effect and still climp. Going into z3 on climbs ruins the whole z2 session. Also why Z2 shall be minimum 1h, preferably 2. Slow twitch is slow to develop. Recruiting fast twitch, "disconnects" slow twitch and you have to start over. It's not exactly the science, but simplified

5/9/2026 3:08pm It's 80% for elite, doing 15-20h per week. For us, if you do one session 1.5-2h (preferably 2) Z2 per week it's good enough. If you can fit in 2 session per week, great. Love my 1.45-2h Z2 MTB rides in the evenings. Good podcast and time flies. 33/33/33 is probably more realistic for us meaning one heavier lower rep...

What is the solution for fading at the 15 second mark? Asking for a friend…

Zone 2 is how you build your cardio system and is an amazing tool to build your base and not hate your training I used to come home from work and first thing hop on my stationary bike for an hour five days a week at 135 bpm and within a few months I saw a huuuuge gain, you can do your sprints at the track

5/9/2026 12:11pm Zone 2 prioritize slow twitch muscle development and aerobic base and develops your capability to deal with lactic acid, or rather the effects of it. It's not fast twitch that helps with that. You need this a few minutes into a moto already, process starts right away. Thats not something you can work around by just "extending how much you...
aees Added a reply to Roczen vs Lawrence, who wins and why?
5/8/2026 4:23am Excluding start crashes or mechanical, being punted of the track by other riders etc. Assuming dry conditions. If they start 1-2, I think Roczen has nothing for Hunter and the Honda on dry slick hard packed. If muddy, rutty. I'm all for Roczen. And Im hoping Roczen winns it, I really do. But Honda on that dirt? Nope.

5/6/2026 12:23pm I said it before. US MX Productions is like you are looking at the race 2 weeks after and someone is doing a post race show. Talk about the weather, what riders did last season. Absolutely no excitement, and almost no race insight.

5/4/2026 3:03am It's not easy how you describe it. How far between the riders to automatically move the guy missing the finish line to finish behind the other guy? 1 sec, 10 sec, 52 sec? What if there are 3 guys coming into final corner and going outside places one in front of both the others?
aees Added a reply to BS AMA Call incoming
5/3/2026 12:42pm It will be difficult to determine who passes the finish line first if one go outside and can't get timing from system and another passes as you should at resonable same time. Think that is the only reason.

5/3/2026 12:36pm Looked like Prado had bad armpump towards the end. Sitting down, stumble in sand section.

5/3/2026 12:32pm That Honda is hard to beat on blue groove hard packed. Given both starts good, if conditions are like this weekends race, Hunter all day long. If rutt-fest and traction, Kenny has the edge.

4/30/2026 5:13am All these riders are on the same level, besides Jett. Bike setup is the key determining factor if everyone is healthy, together with starts. "Just ride the bike" worked 25y ago. Way to many examples. Gajser at Yamaha now, Webb going back to 2025 setup, Sexton right now, Jett taking a third because shock setting was off a bit. Tomac...

100% agree with this - “ I think Jett is causing issues for all riders because they will need to have a Tomac 2015 level…” to beat him.

4/30/2026 4:26am I'm sure Prado could move to midd pack or whatever starting last 😄. Remember last summer on KTM? Took an extended vacation. Webb? Riders coming back to SMX only, outdoors only. It's not a coincidence they happen to be healed just as a new season starts, is it? Now its excuses for Jetts injury, you doing anything to find a...

4/30/2026 4:14am I would think maybe he suffers some from not going full attack mode getting heart rate up there with lead group. Deegan has physical side going for home in 35min in heat. But we will see clear trends. If lap times are up there and Prado can lead half of the race it will come to him In a few...

4/29/2026 1:55pm So you are on the other side of the spectrum. If you don't see that Chase has given up already I'm not sure what to say 😄 Any reason why Jett is not riding these SX races when he is doing 30min Motos? Or Barcia really not wanting to go back but team pushed him. Riders stay out of racing...

4/29/2026 6:19am I don't think there has been as many potential moto winners behind Jett, ever. Hunter, Prado, Tomac, JC, Deegan, Roczen when in. I think Sexton isnt a candidate on the kawi. High chance that at least one of these other guys has a favorite track or really good day/bike setup, for every race. Add in Lucas Cohnen for 3 races...
aees Added a reply to Panic Button for Chase/Kawi?
4/29/2026 2:08am Problem wasn't same on Honda or KTM. I mean he went from last to first on the KTM. Don't see him coming anywhere close to that on the kawi in outdoors. I think the Kawi is not even close to being in the window and riders feel that right away. As Carmichael said, he could feel a new headpipe wasn't...

4/28/2026 2:55pm Going 4th in the 9th round isn't when top riders is still easing into it. He has been fastest in qualifying, so a bit hard to argue he doesn't have the speed. You will go in a pace you are sure you won't crash in. I think there is plenty of examples of riders crashing last few weeks that could...

4/28/2026 2:04pm In really would like to hear your logical explanation to why his results vary so much. You don't think, it is exactly what I wrote above? I don't know if you follow the sport, but this happens every year after about 8-10 races in. Riders put health over results in SX specifically. If you have missed that, not sure what...
