Hello fellow MXers!

I was just looking at the new Char Reed video @ racerx for the 5th time.
http://beta.racerxonline.com/2010/12/17/racer-x-films-chad-reed

And at 00:32 and 00:38 he doesen´t look that fit. More like he put some weight on.

Do you agree? Do you think it have something to do with starting a new team and dont have any time for training? Or what? Because he said he feels good, but this year i think you have to be at your best.

Im not a hater, im a CR22 fan. So this aint a "point and laugh"-thread its more me being concerned about he not successing with his new team and all, wich i want.

Please discuss! Smile

Merry X-mas from Sweden!

This isnt a modeling contest, its a race. Who gives a crap what he looks like or if he's fit. He's a professional....he knows what he's doing. If he's fat at A1 and sucks; oh well.

Chad Reed has been racing in the US for what, about a decade now? He knows what kind of fitness he needs to do 20 hard laps.

I would seriously doubt he'd go to A1 without being physically prepared for it.

I am sure he is fit enough to win Supercross.
He probably wanted to gain some weight back after the Epstien-Barr thing.

Evans and carpenter were the only ones that looked like they ever trained to me.

MX is a skill sport. The only difference is you get a guy like RC with skill and in shape and look what happens.

About five or six years back, he showed up looking a bit anorexic. Had been training and cycling pretty intensely in the off season. Seems he said he'd knocked of twenty some odd pounds back then. Didn't look like the same guy from the previous year, not real healthy looking. Like he may have overdone it just a tad. But he's been doing this long enough and knows where he needs to be.

I remember back when Chad rode for L & M at one point he gained alot of weight. Then when he got on Suzuki he looked like he lost too much weight. Chad will be ready.....

I think the most important thing is does he have the EBV and stomach issues figured out.

Chad just said a few months back he hired a trainer which he hadnt had in 5 years and was working his ass off more then he has before any season. I really doubt he would spend what he is spending to race and show up not ready to race like Jlaw. And while we are on it, I applaud Chad for doing what he had to do to race, much better then a certain J Stewart talking about doing stuff for the fans and how he really wants to race but he cant,. Chads showin them how to do it if you REALLY wanna race

the last time Chad lost weight it was from ilness- if you follow his tweets you'll see he talks about working out and also being sore..etc- I think he will be solid- from a fitness standpoint-

What's crazy is if you pause it between the 00:38 and 00:38.50 mark you see this image:

I don't think you have to look like a freakn anorexic jockey to be fit, and I don't get this no butter on toast etc for 10 years for RC...Fat is essential part of the diet, to help absorb nutrients, as are carbs and protien, these guys train so hard, a little bit of "weight" -calories=energy would help keep them healthy and not as likely to come down with chronic fatige or ebv etc...JMHO

and for what its worth he looks fast, getting on the gas in the corners much sooner than other riders Ive seen in their vids...I think he will be right up at the front as usual.
