    good stuff, i cant wait to get it. just moved to sweden for 6 months so i hope it clears customs.

    just emailed bb.com and they said they have been flooded with questions about version 2.

    they said they dont have a timetable and are still shipping version 1 as of now :(

    yikes dude, you missed the last 6 pages of arguments.

    anyway, i gotta work in the morning, been a pleasure. although i guess i learned it is technically possible to burn 1000kcalories in an hour,...

    hahaha this spreads so much light on the "hate personal trainers thread". haha immaturity and e-tough guys. another gem. bravo.
  • i think we all agree that these figures are...

    i think we all agree that these figures are possible if you can do maintain these brisk paces. IMO i dont think its practical to achieve a lot of the paces like a 6 minute mile for an hour. All of...

    lol. some of these records are pretty rediculous too. it says one guy ran 290km in a 24 hour period, im gonna go ahead and call bull**** on that. thats 180 miles.
  • i still dont think its really feasible unless you...

    i still dont think its really feasible unless you are in absolutely great shape.

    and i still have no clue how they measure these.
  • well to break the 1000kcalorie barrier it looks...

    well to break the 1000kcalorie barrier it looks like you have to running really freaking fast and be pretty heavy. a dont think a 190 lb man can really do any of those paces for a complete hour, im...

    i cant imagine its healthy to burn that many calories day in day out either. replenishing those must be complete hell. i bet the guys riding in the tour are absolutely torn up because they ride...
  • i think peak power during acceleration may go to...

    i think peak power during acceleration may go to like 3.5 hp as suggested, but when the rider is just kinda chucking along hes really only going to be going at a fraction of a hp to just maintain...
  • this figure may be right for elite riders, it...

    this figure may be right for elite riders, it just seems way too high IMO. id like to find a reliable source (non personal training one) and cross check these figures.

    i really have no clue how...

    and yes im ME and probably aerospace too when its all said and done.
  • very very very well worded, exactly what i was...

    very very very well worded, exactly what i was trying to say. while input power is low, output power is great (at low levels of friction).
  • yeah i was doin that for a while, i always forget...

    yeah i was doin that for a while, i always forget that you can put units in front such as 3.4.

    i always just type like hp in watts instead of 3.4 hp in watts and make myself do an extra...
  • yeah i was just trying to say there were...

    yeah i was just trying to say there were measuring the output from the bike not the persons legs. i was just thinking about initial energy expenditure during a peak load such as acceleration. i...

    ive been going with the 1000kcalories/hour. 800 i still think is a bit of a stretch. that site you showed is a world record.

    i think this whole post is like asking if you could weigh 300 lbs at...

    on a side note i think its completely embarassing we are basing these figures on a wikipedia figure. i only put it up there as an insult so that heartrate monitor guy could at least pretend to know...
  • for all practical purposes, yes. 800W was said...

    for all practical purposes, yes. 800W was said to be strenuous activity, which is 689kcalories/hour and in my estimation reasonable.

    maybe lance amstrong can generate that kind of power, but for all practical purposes, it is impossible, especially to the OP which was my point. you dont want to be telling someone they are burning...

    yes i see that, my point is that we established that while a human can deliver 1.5 at any instant, it cannot be sustained for an hour.

    btw i guess i already repped you, must spread it around first.
