First off I am a huge fan.

I just watched this video and I have to say he looks truly malnourished. Marvin has always been on the leaner side, but now with Aldon he looks like a cyclist AFTER he completed the Tour de France. Totally depleated.



This is a serious post Bro!

Yes, I am hating on Aldon's nutrition plan for old Marv.

BTW...what is Aldon's "nutrition plan for old Marv?" You must know what it is...right?

Ken said he felt weak after working with Aldon. If I could choose, I would go with John Tomac. Eli is fit, strong and not sick looking.

Marvin has always ran a little lean. I thought he was lean even prior to Aldon so I don't think Aldon has much to do with his leanness.

It would be cool to get Aldon to do a Q&A session but you'd never be able to keep the "anti Aldon" crowd out. There are some real good questions that could be asked of him. Maybe for that Q&A, we could all submit questions in an open forum, and have GuyB present the questions to Aldon in an interview type sitting.

It could be the program that Aldon has him on, it could be the stress of what he's dealing with in his personal life, we just don't know, but Aldon has great results, that we can't deny, but it's not for everyone, as we've seen. Roczen didn't like it, and he won whilst working with Aldon. These guys aren't cyclists

He was always skinny obviously but I have to agree, he looks like a skeleton but how can you argue against Aldon's methods?

I don't know.

I am making my statement about Aldon's nutrition plan based off what I see in Marvin's face.

Can I be wrong, and can Aldon's plan be awesome for Marv? Maybe

I would love to get Aldon's feedback.

Seeing how he designs each riders nutrition plan would be very interesting.

^^ This.

I would actually assume the stress in his personal life has more to do with his weight loss than Baker's program. With how lean he was to begin with dropping 10 lbs or so would end up looking about like this.

God you guys and your obsession with these guys bodies. What are you even trying to prove in this pic? He looked fine in the video and he looks fine in this picture. You all need to find better things to worry about.

Obviously they should all ditch Aldon and do Crossfit, Bro.

I think they forgot to take him off the 350 diet. 450 diet has a little more In-n-Out allowances.

nope, doesn't look healthy or happy in that picture.
I can't remember saying anything about his body. And the only thing I worry about is that he could also retire as young as RV

marvin has been always very skinny but with moving up to the 450 class i think he should have bulked up rather than getting leaner. even baggett bulked up quiet a bit because he and his trainer know that the intensity in the big boy class is much higher. it's gonna be though for marvin to hang with guys like tomac who look like freaking mma fighters.

It's the Charlie Sheen diet........I did it a few years ago and lost 42lbs in 16 hours and renovated my entire house in 2 days.

i was clearly exaggerating. i thought that was obvious. Huh
meaning there are a couple of guys out there that are strong AND full of talent and it will be though for marvin to keep up with those guys for 20 laps.

WIth all the blood work and experience aldon has with nutrition he's probably one of the healthier riders in the field, his v02 measurements and heart rate / recovery are also probably near the top. This is his body type. His physiological structure.. not the result of some torturous, misguided training and nutrition program.

as far as bulking up for the 450 class? guys like marvin ride with technique and finesse. not manhandling their machines around the track. Have you ever notice how some of the fastest riders are the most fluid and smoothest riders on track at that given time? Anderson gave us a great example of that last week. relaxing, flowing riding style, letting the bike work...

adding muscle for endurance sports has also to do with injury prevention. probably more so than being able to 'manhandling' things. roczen is as smooth as it gets but also relatively muscular for this sport. a musquin or seely wouldn't have gotten away with only a few bruises after a crash similar to roczens at a1. and that is key in this sport, you have to be able to get away with crashes like that and still finish the race/ your training/ your season.
