Meatheads and MX riders, few questions.

I dont work out for shit. at all, and I dont eat right… yet I can survive a motor around Royal and I can run my balls off on the SX track at twister for 10 minutes straight.

I dont usually get out of breath, and I feel great after a ride, MINUS arm pump. When i ran quads, that fucking stiff ass YFZ thumb throttle was the death of me. Last lap I couldnt work the throttle at all. The twist throttle on the bike is a thousand times easier, and I feel like i have way more controll.

Just ride all the time, as much and as hard as you can on your track. You will rack up millions of laps, and it will become second nature to rip fast laps off, so you will start focusing on your body more and not the track or necessarily riding while your out there. Tell your self to loosen up, deep breaths in the air, loosen your grip and your legs, payattention to body position, not trying to over work the bike, etc. You will get in shape fast. That gives your body and brain muscle memory.

Come race day you can more than likely back it off a little and pay attention to the other riders and unfamiliar track layouts. the focus on body control and everything you learned on your track will now be second nature and you don’t need to focus on that, and 20 people around you and nasty rutted up tracks. The muscle memory will keep you intact and running strong letting you free your focus a little more and allow you to actually race.

Race the track and the riders, don’t race your own brain and your body. When you make mistakes on the track if your focusing on your body and shit, you will mentally beat yourself up and tense up and get tired.

you in good shape, just ride!

What do you want to run next year? I am srs, if you want me to leave my bike at your house or in the back of my truck, I will ride every day after work until its dark at your track with you to train! real talk.

dude like I told you 1000 times, you and your brother and whoever else are always welcome to come down and ride. I dont ride very much anymore because I have NO one to ride with…and when I do go riding, I dont have anyone (not bragging at all here) to my level to “pressure me” enough.

I was the 3rd place overall winner for 2 years straight in the quad Am class at royal mountain sx. My cousin was the 1st place winner. The last year I rode, at the awards ceremony I got promoted to expert the week after I broke my wrist. I havent raced since. That was in 05’. The rules state if you are a expert, and you take a year off you can drop a class down. So I will be starting off in the Am class again. I am no where near a expert level anymore as the quads got faster and new riders are in the gates. The year I stopped racing, was the 2nd year of the 450’s being out so they were just starting to hit the race tracks. I was running my 310, 250r against 400ex’s, some 450’s and mostly other trx250r’s.

I did race my Hybrid 2 years ago at diamondback, and I was 2nd into the first corner both races. Problem was, the 2nd lap in I was getting fatigued and started slowing down massively.
