Anger is a powerful emotion ... if you learn to guide it, it becomes "positive aggression". I think that this is what Jan is best at. Opinions? VERY COOL VIDEO!!!
Very inspirational! I've never really competed anywhere near Mr. Frodeno, but I can really relate to a lot of what he said. I hope the best for you, thank you for your message, RIDE ON!!! also damn, your build is what i strive for, youre looking great!

Just got Zwift to train for my first Ironman, been reading a lot about Jan and his career. Always assumed he was a cool dude but watching this makes me want to kick back and drink a beer with him.
So ein Nicer Typ der frodeno!!!
Really cool sympatic guy!!! And he is Training on Zwift like me ;-)..........

I will always look up to Jan. Both as an athlete, but most definitely as a person.

Brilliant; always inspiring to watch Jan Frodeno! @ Zwift team: here is a low dev suggestion to make it more realistic for triathletes (after - of course - fixing the cornering issue of Jan’s avatar on the bike ;-) What about adding a button we can click on when riding on the aerobars, and which would take the aerodynamic boost into account? Alternatively, one could think of a small chip to attach to the aerobars, which the system would recognize when the hands are on it. Just a thought. In the meantime; thanks for these videos! Am off zwifting;)

@@hamzaa.8082 A few professionals I know think he's on PEDs. He never talks about the specifics of his training, his bike power in races, or anything for that matter. Every interview I've watched with him is the most boring interview where he just speaks nonsense in circles. I think he tries to keep a low profile to stay out of the spotlight to avoid rumors.

Stupid question ... what's your TV size?
I wonder how many times Jan has had to deal with his routes not being saved upon finishing a ride. Unfortunately, I've lost multiple long rides and Zwift doesn't even respond to my outreach to resolve these matters even though I have the recovered .fit file :-(

@@simpulsive_4484 Depends what you are looking/training for and your budget. On the kickr you put a bike you have, so you can train with your own setup. Wattbike is a complete bike by itself. I personally would go for a kickr, because you can use it with different bikes and it's much easier to transport & put away. Watts on the wattbike are probably slightly more accurate than kickr. What's your intend of use?

200+ watts at 120bpm, lol I'm at 180 for this power
My avatar always goes wide in the corners too!
Oh he’s still got time
I really like him compete! His vita is unique - legend! But the talk in between is just (self-)framed and constructed generalism - boring!
My avatar is worse, it keeps bumping into other riders or even going through them, it's creepy.

But when you use swift, you also ride alone through virtual landscapes. So that is also boring. Why not just watch some filme while riding indoors? I don’t get it why swift should be so great? I know you can do races on zwift but they usually don’t fit into a training plan. E.g. in the base period, it is not advisable to do a lot of hard races.
