I Did 100 Squats A Day For 30 Days & This Is What Occurred
Squats are nice at constructing leg energy however simply how a lot of a distinction do they make to a bike owner's energy output? We needed to search out out, so naturally requested Hank to be our guinea pig for the needs of, um… science…? The problem was to do 100 squats every single day for a month. That's 3000 in complete! Would this enhance his FTP? His peak energy? That is what occurred…!!

Wow Hanks max and 20s power are identical to mine, I'm slightly tempted to try this challenge myself!
Ab challenge next?
This is what I need for track cycling. Since I don't ride or train really
All I see are HALF squats!
lost interest as soon as you brought whoop in
Instructive
Thank you
I feel lied to! I didn’t realize for some reason thatGMBN and GCN were in the same building!
Congrats on your sprint improvement. Can Manon break the news to Ollie? I think that’s best.
That beefcake bloke in the beginning should have taught you form. Holy shit man. Range of motion is garbage. Worst whoop ad I’ve ever seen.
Kinda disappointed that the "strength coach" didn't tell Hank to go parallel or below for the squat. I wonder how much more his power would have gone up if he had worked the entire range/muscles for a proper squat. However, nicely done Hank.
You need to go deeper on the squats.
Hank, great video – really impressed that narrow of a focus for 30 days had a ~30% peak power increase! How much did the Whoop tracking factor in or limit any other training you did beyond the 100 sq/day baseline? Do you think the results would have been different without Whoop? Maybe you and Conor should do a head to head challenge, one with Whoop and one without!
Knowing that Hanks best friend is Mark Beaumont, I can only assume that 4am night was a massive effort. Tandem beer drinking.
Speaking of which, would be a fun challenge to see how fast the GCN crew can pedal a brewery bike trolley. Dan can be serving beer as you all ride. May need to be all the GCN locales to join in too
Love this video! So interesting!
Trans athletes ought not race with actual gender athletes
. It's akward and weird and unfair too. Why does the world have to play along?
You need to allow for recovery. I can't believe you haven't factored this in. You could do them every second day and get greater benefits.
I don't understand how this idea/video got made. Everyone at GCN is very experienced at cycling, training, many are ex-pros. Each knows how to do a squat, each knows how a few days of rest is needed between strength-training sessions, not just a good night's sleep. What was this, an ad for Whoop?
Looks like overtraining for sure.
Awesome video, BUUUUUT, please do it again with 4-5 recovery days of no training. To see if it makes a better result. Please, please, please. 😀
When do you start the squats?
I’m sorry, but your range of motion is pathetic… Those don’t count as real squats, LOL
Surely two days off at the end before retesting would have had different results for FTP and 20 second power.
Ollie should have been the Guinea pig for this segment, he would have crushed the 1,000 watt barrier with ease.
Good work!
What did you make of Hank's improvements? Do you do strength and conditioning to complement your cycling?
