February 2012: Tacx training

A Tacx ergotrainer is the ideal training partner to maintain, and even improve, your bike conditioning during the cold  winter months.  Roller training doesn’t have to be boring. Here’s just one example of a challenging work-out:

-  Start with a 20-minute warm-up going 95 RPM

- Next, complete four 10-second prints at 95 RPM at maximum resistance. Between every sprint, you bike four minutes at the fat burning threshold (for best results, have your fat burning threshold determined at  specialized facilities such as Topsport ABC).

- Do two sets of four 10 second-sprints

- Between sets, add 15 minutes to loosen your muscles

- After the last last, finish up with a 20-minute cool-down
