Yeah, is is much more taxing on the upper body.
Btw those Red Bull guys that filmed us riding today have put their video up.

Was giving your question about off-roading vs road cycling and effort.
If you were to output the same power for an hour of road or MTB I strongly expect the off-road session would take more out of you. Upper body would be doing much more, your whole physique has to absorb the vibrations and bumps plus there is the mental energy used in picking a line etc.
