What road speed was being simulated? I’d love to hear the watts saved at 15, 30, and 45kph. Also, if slightly hairy arms and legs represent a 13 watt opportunity, what about different jersey materials and fit (skin tight vs relaxed)? Surely my torso contributes far more to wind resistance, right?

If you are spending energy thinking about this sort of thing, that is wasted on energy that could be spent on actually improving your health and athleticism, which will yeild a much higher ROI

"If it doesn't hurt, make it hurt more. There's nothing more to think about.'

Would have liked to see the difference between just shaving legs and both arms/legs

I will keep my hairy legs, at least i have an excuse for my poor performance

🔥🔥🔥

How is the front wheel spinning?

That didn't look like a tight corner at all.

I think Specialized had it at 15 watts for legs at 25mph.

can we just admit that cyclists like feeling smoother than the women they sleep with? it has zip to do with aero gains. its a kink thing. always has been.

"The rain gives the plants the nutrition that they need to grow." Legendary 😂

Congrats!

Great video, and another inspiring race. Thanks for the continued motivation!

It was never about aerodynamics. its because pro riders get multiple deep tissue massages every day, especially when racing or at training camp. Easier to massage shaved legs. Why are people still talking about this? Duh Go watch pro sports. Male boxers, MMA fighters, NBA and NFL players shave their armpits bare. Go make a big deal about that. Roided up bobybuilders full of growth hormones shave their entire swollen unhealthy bodies. they are a more interesting target.

Our great, inspiring and much more matured Lionel with a perfect race win!

Yes, yes, yes!!!!!!

R E S P E C T for sticking in and pushing yourself to victory

Congratulations, what a journey, thanks for all the insight, prayers for continued health and success!!

Congrats man, watching from Brazil. Great!!

If he’s a 5 on the hairiness scale then I’m a 12 😂

Saying this is in caps ... NOW ITS WORKING, CHANGE NOTHING !!!

See you in Lake Placid!!

You should have tested either arms or legs first. Imagine if the legs are only 2 watts.

Epic freaking day! a day to remember that is for sure! I enjoyed the rain haha

Loved the couch sit down! Nice chat.

Awesome 👏

Most of the stuff is in the mind so true Lionel! Mike, has intense pain and something wrong his body so I choose a week of straight intensity, including the day after a race Ugh

Super Sanders!!!

It was really great to see Lionel the bike animal again. Simply great, it was great fun to watch!

IMHO everyone hates the poor weather meaning it provides an opportunity to get an edge over your competitors. Accept that which you don’t control. I think that would of been Ben K’s attitude.

Why is Talbot in front of the camera?😂

the peoples champ no doubt!

Wow! awesome content

Whatever you're doing with your run keep it up. Best I've seen from you biomechanically.

I’m just happy for you brother @lionel!!! keep going, you’re fucking killing it!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Watching the race was awesome. I’ve been home after foot surgery and haven’t been able to train but watching these pro series performances as so inspiring. Lionel is right about the bike; they all kept taking turns. Crazy to see them dropping hammers on the bike to ill effect. Super epic race. My favorite 70.3 I’ve seen yet.

The rain gives me superpowers.

As always, the best entertainment in Triathlon. Thank you for sharing.

Grande Lionel!!! You are back!!! Amazing race!!!

I'll be racing in Lake placid. I hope I get to see you kick ass 💪💪💪.

The look on your face when you crossed the finish line was actually haunting. So happy you didn't come on here with horrible news about your injury! Those conditions sucked and you still fought from end to end, that's the grit of a champion! Levi gives you wings! 🕊️

More videos like that. No need to be post race jus chatting about triathlon ❤

Such an awesome performance 👏🙌😎

Lionel what a freaking performance! Talk about loving the new drive of just doing it. Make it hurt even more and damn the data. That’s your ticket to the W. Talbot, what a great interview. Hands down the best one to date.

I also believe that the shaved surfaces helps in heat dissipation. Also easier to apply sun screen in a more even, thinner application. I've been shaving since my racing days in the 1990s. I can tell the heat difference after only 2 weeks of growth.

as an age group finisher who survived that course, I'm so happy to hear that those conditions were hard for the pros too!

So epic! What a stud!!! LETS GOOOOO!!!!

You're an absolute ANIMAL. Love it

I have exactly 20 *other* reasons to do it. You can use those too. I have a list.

Have you done Frankfurt before? Anyway, I just throw some Frodo-is-the-new-secret-coach gossip into the mix.
