I just got a new Mag trainer this weekend.
I went with a mag trainer to be able to do high load low speed for leg strength.
Now my question does are there any recommendations for training videos where you set the trainer and then use the bike’s gears to get your cadence to build your heart rate?
Next question. My resting heart rate is about 68 my Max is about 180 however if I just look at the bike I am up in the 150 range this is in Carmichals Zone 5 but I am supposed to be spinning in Zone 2 which is about 120. How do I get my heart rate down there?
