Comment on Yes…. You Can Run Faster Off the Bike by Nick

I was always under the impression that ending the cycling leg of a triathlon, you should up the cadence to match your running cadence or higher to ‘flush’ your legs of lactic acid. I have done this in races and feel like it really does not help much and I worry that by increasing my cadence and reducing my intensity I am actually loosing time as opposed to pushing hard right to T2. Both ways, high cadence finish and pushing hard to T2, still leaves me starting my run with with that ‘bike legs’ feeling so I am unsure what is the best method to finish up the bike. Your video tips makes sense and I figure the best way to overcome bike legs is just to keep doing bike/run bricks until my legs adapt. Keep the video tips coming!

Some great tips, especially #3 – there’s some extra stretches you can do (take a look at yoga’s ‘child pose’) to help you gain more flexibility in your ankle.

Hey Kerry, Great tips. Hey I have heard about supplements such as Accelerades Endrox Excel which is supposed to be “Guranteed” to improve your personal best. Are these supplements the real deal and how relevant are they to the average joe or newbie triathlete.

For me the most important thing, when it comes to triathlon training, is the support I get from my family.

No triathlet can achieve success and find all the time he needs in order to prepare, without the help of those around him.

Which part of the leg are you shaving? Calfs or the entire leg?
