Trainer workout video
I got myself a Cyclop trainer last week . I am looking for workout video that will helps me be a better come next spring . Any suggestion is appreciated . I , myself is looking at this video called cyclo90. Anyone with good or bed experience .
|
I tried a couple of workout videos and didn't really get into them. I found that the best videos for me were races recorded with TIVO. Be really careful not to fall off sideways when watching a spirited descent. The temptation to lean is almost overwhelming.

I have Spinervals and a Carmichael training videos. Both are great and quite different work outs from each others. Bought them on Amazon.

Sufferfest.

AC/DC live. Gets me through a workout better than any training video.

I've got a few of the Real Rides (http://realrides.ca/) discs. They are filmed on various routes, such as the Penticton Ironman course, Grand Canyon, Coer d'Alene Ironman, etc.. There is a narrated workout, but I usually mute it and just ride. For one thing, their idea of a warmup is only 5 minutes, and it takes me at least 15 to feel truly warmed up.
Note that there is another company making DVDs with this name, I have no idea what their product is like. My better half prefers to watch races such as the Giro or the Tour, which can also have interesting scenery. |
I have used one from cyclingvideosonline.com that works well for me. I have the Bay area Backroads. I like it a lot better on bigscreen tv than on my computer screen. I'm now old enough that I rode it several times before I had it memorized. Now I mute the sound.

I have a series of 9 Spinervals VCR tapes!!! with Coach Troy - not that I use them, but they are pretty good. I got them on EBay really cheap. However, I did go to spinning class for 60 minutes this am. :)

A couple of years ago I found a "deal" from http://www.globalride.net/index.php, a Hawaii series of rides, I don't think they offer that one anymore, but it was more oriented toward conditioning than racing.StrenDurance Hawaii DVD is a redo of the original. I think the "suffer" stuff is beyond us.
