No, the thing is that what will happen here is that this will actually come down. So your VO2 max.

This is the interesting thing because this is the difference. The consequence of aiming for Ironman is that you want to have minimal decline in this. Yes, and you need a lower VO2 max. Because it has to do with priority and training. You can't prioritize having a high one-minute power or five-minute power simply because it's too far away from specificity of what you really need there.

So if you start building good sessions where you basically are looking to increase your one-minute power or five-minute power, that's obviously going to have a cost for the whole week that you are doing of training.

This is also quite interesting because one of the main differences I would say that differs them, call them as, or compared to the specialists in the sports is actually not their metabolism. If you look at their view to max on running, cycling, and swimming, you will actually see that they are equally or higher than their peers in those sports. But their efficiency is not the same.

This comes probably most down to the fact that they have to do three different sports. You don't get the same time of just pure stimulus, mechanical stimulus from doing something and optimizing it because you have to change. And it also has some priorities also as well. In running, you could say you don't want to compromise on your leg stiffness at all.

In cycling, this is a little bit more beneficial to do this, for example. So here you have to strike a balance between the three, which makes it very complex. But in swimming, they are higher than the highest view to max that are measured on elite swimmers in the world. But the difference is also I had the bronze medalist.

It is so poor. It is so poor. It's actually funny. I think we talked about this last time. I had one of the best swimmers in the world. in the flume and tested him. And he's a big guy, 195, 100 kilograms, close to 100 kilograms, muscles all over. And then Christian into the flume at the same, basically same velocity. I don't remember exactly what his velocity is now, but basically this big guy.

And the flume is an endless pool? Yes. It's a stationary swimming pool? The difference here is that endless pool, very often people think of this as a counter current where there's a lot of turbulence. Here we are talking about something which is

The thing here is that when you look at these two guys now swimming... So you put them at the same speed. Same speed. Okay. The elite swimmer, he is even retired. First of all, Christian, eight kilograms. This guy, close to 100 kilograms. And that's not because of fat. He is lean.
