Hitting the trainer.
Well, mornings here are still a little too frosty for riding to work. This really sucks since the afternoons have been so nice and warm for this time of year. So the bike is sitting on the trainer in the garage, and I have been getting a good work out on it. Each day I can’t ride to work, I spend an equal amount of time on the trainer when I get home.
I find even though I spend the same time on the trainer as when I commute, I get a lot better work out. Riding the trainer gives me a simular feeling as when riding my fixed gear. Got to keep the crank spinning to keep the wheels turning, no coasting, no stop lights and no breaks.
To add a bit to the ride I have downloaded the Interval Trainer by Conceited Software. Although it’s a pretty basic timer, it really helps me push it for short periods as I get my base fitness level back to pre-knee injury levels. Check out the web site, the timer is only $0.99 there, but $1.99 on the iTunes App store.
