I decided to finally try "No Slackers Allowed" tonight, since most of our roads are flooded or covered with 3" of gravel from being flooded.
It's a cool DVD, but I think for some reason my indoor trainer doesn't have enough resistance for the DVD. It was all fine and dandy until the standing part. There just isn't enough resistance to support my weight. I was literally using my arms to hold myself up, and spinning as fast as I could in the 53x15 (which is the gear the instructor indicates we should be using). I'm looking at the people in the video (who are a LOT stronger than I am) and they seem to be putting in a noticable effort.
I have a year-old Perf Travel Trac trainer, fluid, with fixed resistance. Do I need a better trainer for this?
