How many intervals did you make it through? 🥵

[warrenbentley]

Morning all I’m really pleased with myself having just completed this session but it was really hard
I’m a 73 year old cyclist with bilateral knee replacement surgery these sessions are invaluable to me to help in my fitness regime keep them coming Hank

BOOM! Hung on by the ragged edge to complete all 10 at the same wattage. Heart rate peaked at higher level with each successive interval, reinforcing how hard I was working. As hard as advertised, Hank! At age 76 1/2, I need demanding HIIT workouts to keep my VO2 max at the level needed to stay with the group for our 40-mile ride on Saturday mornings. (Average age of the group of 20 or so is probably 35-40 years, and we average 19-20 mph, which is about 31 kph.) Thanks for the inspiring leadership and killer workout! 😅

[BLawrence]

I love your workouts because even if we don’t have a “connected” bike, we can still feel connected and engaged. Love GCN! Thank you, Hank & Co. :)

[depakkumarmistry]

Best training video to date. I made it through to the end with a massive pool of sweat on the floor. Thank you the motivation as that was what got me through. Watching the guest presenters in Morgan, Maddie and Katie and keeping up with them is such motivation. Keep these videos coming 😂

[EmmaWilson-iy]

Love this session and completed it. I am a 10K runner and use your sessions to supplement my running training in order to off load my knees. Used this session today before my first race of the season in in 2 days. Massive thanks.

[kayleerussell]

Boom! Thank you for another wonderfully gruelling workout! Keep 'em coming.🚲

Boom!!! 💥 Joined the sufferfest this morning from Seattle. 4.18.23

[oconnello]

BOOM! Love your work, Hank and the team 🚲

[Livesarah]

Good one! I really enjoy three minute efforts. They’re long enough to be tough, but short enough that you can really push yourself. Keep the longer sessions coming!

[jamesdavid]

Boom! The hill training video really helped me make it through this video. My RPMs are still really low but I’m building strength! Thank you to everyone on this channel.

[lchiarelli]

That was the quietest presentation I’ve ever heard from a Hank-led class. Hard session, no doubt! Boom! Chicka boom!

[jessicabockoven]

Getting in shape for trail racing! Thank you all for these awesome videos! I train with them every week!

[RobertKrauth]

Hank. Thank you for a nice hard workout. Many of the newer videos are getting shorter and easier, so it’s nice to have a longer and harder video! All the best from Los Angeles, Ca USA

[amyflowers]

Boom! And very Slytherin of you to sneak in harder efforts at the end.

[bridgetg]

Fantastic! Thank you! More is always good.

[erikagoffin]

This is the ABSOLUTE BEST workout! 🎉❤ Hank, you’re the best! Love the energy, music, drive and hard finish!

[Utubemann]

That was brutal, a fight with your own mind and body. I love it. Got through it all. We need more.

[belindachrist]

I survived up to 35 minutes.... definitely found my new workout videos. Thank you for the burn, and sweat.

[lisawright]
