I'm a big fan of Out & Back Again. Did 26 miles yesterday on Zwift. The goal setting feature has motivated me the most. I've got a fairly busy weekly schedule, so had you asked me a year ago if I could aspire to 60 miles a week, I would have given you the skeptical eye. Now, after 10 months of riding regularly, when I tick off that 60 mi/week goal, it makes me so proud to continue striving harder.

@RobertJWaid 8 місяців тому

Nice video. I'd add three points. 1. Ride when it is dark: More than for the weather, I ride indoors when it is dark. This is great for two a days or those of us that need a day and a half to recover from a hard ride. 2. Two fans: What a difference a fan behind made. I use a box fan on high behind me with a small fan in front. I went from a lot of sweat to "normal" ride sweat. 3. Sweat wristbands: A friend who sweats a lot on the trainer said these tennis styled wristbands save his gloves and bike while riding indoors.

Welcome back Manon! I was late to the Zwift bandwagon and only joined last year while I was recovering from an injury. I had no idea how much use I would get out of my turbo trainer! The events and social aspect of Zwift make it much more enjoyable and I often prefer it to riding outside in poor weather.

@dblissmn 7 місяців тому

A key thing for me is safety. The first summer I had clipless, I had to slam the breaks to avoid a cyclist who'd cut right across my path without looking, and I went head over handlebars. I honestly think the pedals saved my life that day; they released exactly like they should and prevented far worse damage to both me and the bike. Ended up three years later adding road specific clipless pedals and using the double-sided ones only on my mountain bike due to hot spots on my feet -- the road models have a much larger contact area -- but it's the same deal; a secure connection, just enough float for my knees, not too much for them to release when they ought to.

@user-go6tj2rx4o 8 місяців тому

A wonderful video! I completely agree with the opinion that "riding" indoors is safer, and it takes less time to prepare. About the fan: I prefer to pedal with the window open. This gives an influx of fresh air and gives conditioning. Instead of a mat, I use sweat baths. They can collect up to 150-200 milliliters of sweat during 1-1.5 hours of training - no mat will stand. Manon didn't say anything about water. I drink at least 1 liter of water from a flask for training.

@jasonfenech5347 8 місяців тому

I honestly hate indoor training, but realise how beneficial it is for rapid improvement ave power and normalised power are very similar, or exactly the same.

Recommend investing in a decent fan above all else

@maiconleonard69 8 місяців тому

My experience 5 key tips: 1. get started with an old computer or phone to run the apps( connectivity draws a lot of battery if you're using a mobile device) 2. be carefull with sweat ( it can ruin your bike and electronic devices) 3. Participate in series (races, group rides, workouts, challenges) this will keep you motivated to come back 4. get some background music or headphones( will help fight back the monotony) 5. Verify your equipment( bike, cleats, sensors, tires...) Just because youre static indoors doesn't mean that things dont need some checks/maintenance.

You seem to have LOVELY winter weather! No snow, so it's not even freezing outside. I'd definitely rather bundle up and go outside. Here in Wisconsin, we spend months at a time below freezing with frequent snow to contend with. Last thing: one of the reasons I love cycling is I can GO places and get a feeling of speed. Doing these indoor workouts, we lose that. I think I'm going to invest in cold weather gear and just ride every day it doesn't snow.

My mate amd I went with a Zwift competitor back several years ago now, very early on, just because it seemed that lots of people were on Zwift, and we were just going against the grain. This had to be 5 years ago now, lol. In that years time Zwift went from taking off, to REALLY taking off, and just dominating the field. Wish I coulf remeber the name of the one we used. Was really cool, it was actual road footage for the rides. Anyway, we ended up on Zwift, but I barely used/ use it. I just prefer outdoor cycling. Living in North Carolina, its so much more temperate, even in the dead of winter than other places, I can get away with it. That said, I do want to get an indoor trainer in hopes of getting more rides in, as these days I find myself riding SO much less due to time constraints, and I feel that if I had my bike on a trainer again, if get a cheeky 15 to 30 minutes ride in more often than I am currently.

@kovie9162 4 місяці тому

Thanks for the tips and pep talk! Always welcome in winter... Two questions though: One, how do you avoid having whatever room you train in not smell of sweat and its nastier acrid by-products permanently? Is this even possible? It's ok if the smell lingers for a bit afterwards but no if we're talking hours, days and beyond, especially if it's a bedroom or living room. And two, is floor vibration at all an issue with direct drive trainers, providing that they and the bike that's installed in them are functioning properly and well-maintained and lubed?

IMO the biggest advantage to using an indoor trainer is that you're always at home. You'll never get stranded on an indoor trainer, be it a puncture, a bonk, or an injury. While I certainly think these things add to the adventure of proper cycling and give you a story to tell, it does mean that indoor training is a very safe place to push your limits. Recently I went out riding and punctured. I didn't have sufficient kit with me to repair so I was knackered. Yes my fault of course and I've since invested in some new stuff to make sure it doesn't happen again - but what if I had already used my spare tube, or my pump had broken, etc. I'd be in the same situation. Point is I was left stranded, and just about everyone I knew with a car was on holiday, so I really had no way of making it home. In the end, it was the generosity of two passing cyclists that bailed me out. At least it wasn't raining... Indoor trainers sacrifice much of what makes cycling such a great, enjoyable experience - but they sacrifice it for the safety of home. If you're trying to get fit by cycling, an indoor trainer is very hard to pass up because of that safety. And not to mention that, unlike an exercise bike, an indoor trainer and accompanying bike is not limited to the living room you put it in. When you feel like it you can go roam the world on the same two wheels!

@bindingcurve 7 місяців тому

Find out if there is a local Crit practice. I love mine, as I can push HARD and flat out, the car is always half a mile away.

@daredemontriple6 7 місяців тому

@bindingcurve I don't drive, as many others don't, but even so the point was more that on a turbo, the very second you want to stop, you can. You just get off and that's it. Anywhere else and there's some element of making your way home and getting your kit back indoors. Not bashing crits of any kind by the way, they're definitely a good way to train and enjoyable for many, but they aren't a solution to this particular hypothetical problem

Can we use a 700C tires on it, like a hybrid bike?

@gcn 8 місяців тому

Yep! That should be fine, but always check the specifications for your trainer first 🔎

Idk man. I have a love hate relationship with my trainer. I can’t be around it (on it) for more than an hour. Lol. Outside I can ride for hours no problem. Can I do that indoors? Not a chance.

You having a laugh 😂 right now the weather is the complete opposite of when this video is suited for , so I guys get outside and enjoy the sun before it’s gone and come back to this video in about three months cheers

8 minutes of commercial for Wahoo and Zwift, no words of very good and cheaper alternatives like Rouvy.

@Bungle2010 5 місяців тому

Which was the Wahoo part? I prefer Zwift tbh.

Do you need to get your bike dialed with the gears when throwing your bike on the trainer? My gears seem to skip

@RaymondOlgado0 8 місяців тому

Happens to me especially the mid gears.

In some cases yes. I use 9 speed but have to add a bit of tension to the cable for my rear mech when setting it up my bike on the trainer

I just made sure I fitted the same cassette to my wife’s trainer (Christmas present) as was already on her bike. Conveniently I then bought a bike that matched it myself.

@NikolausLim 8 місяців тому

The gearing on your trainer needs to have the same ratio as on your bike. Same speed, same teeth configuration.

@robjones7556 6 місяців тому

One question please, what do people use for viewing? I see a lot of people with an iPad but that seems way too small for something like Zwift. Currently using YT videos but my TV in my garden building needs replacing so using my laptop and just think it too small let alone with so much info in Zwift to see. I’d like to connect it through a TV but seems you need Apple TV, is that right?

@Bungle2010 5 місяців тому

You should be able to connect a laptop to a TV with an HDMI cable, or, it's a smart TV, link it to the iPad and have its display on the TV screen.

No way I ride indoors. It gets way too hot, sweaty and messy. I ride on my roof covered veranda. The 2nd bike is permanently ready year round, no second needed for set up. And a fairly cheap kickr snap is sufficient if you have a ANT power meter.

@livegamingyt2833 8 місяців тому

for me indoor riding is boring in my country there is organized chaos and i like to manure my bike thorough unpredictable traffic

What is a stressful day for Si? Is he now getting the "over the hill at 40" jibes, that he persistently punched Dan with a short while ago?

Indoors I'd want a big fan. Otherwise the air is too still.

I like the idea of indoor training but i can't justify another monthly subscription if there was a program with a one off payment for a few maps to ride that'd suit me fine.

@TomPhotoix 8 місяців тому

Wahoo RGT is free. You can pay for more features, but they have 2 maps every week that are free to ride.
