Rocketman Posted December 12, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 12, 2014 Intervals. Inside. On the trainer. Seriously. Especially these http://www.thesufferfest.com/training-video/downward-spiral/ I hate riding the bike to nowhere ... I have ... 4 videos from the Sufferfest ... they help IMMENSELY with the monotony of turning pedals inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtyhip Posted December 12, 2014 Share #2 Posted December 12, 2014 I have never done intervals on a trainer. I can't find the motivation to push hard while on a trainer. Outside, on normal surfaces....I do like to pump it up. It just doesn't work for me spinning inside. I do heavy work on a elliptical at the though. I like those stupid machines. I usually set it to intervals for an hour. Then,. I do weights. It seems to keep me fit and ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketman Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share #3 Posted December 12, 2014 I'm just happy to be turning the pedals instead of being a sloth Plus ... they use video from Paris - Roubaix ... Its easy to sprint for 30 seconds while chasing Tom Boonen in the Velodrome I never catch the bastard though, he ALWAYS wins. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtyhip Posted December 12, 2014 Share #4 Posted December 12, 2014 I have to stare at a wall. Nothing good there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketman Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share #5 Posted December 12, 2014 And that is why I NEVER rode the trainer more than once a winter for more than 5 minutes. I just couldn't take it. Strava has a couple of Sufferfest videos in the training section ... it makes it way more ... well, less monotonous. Was gonna say way more enjoyable, but it's a bike, to nowhere, inside. Nothing enjoyable about that. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrAzY Posted December 12, 2014 Share #6 Posted December 12, 2014 I play video games while on the trainer... gives me something to do instead of intervals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zealot Posted December 12, 2014 Share #7 Posted December 12, 2014 Actually, I can't stay in the trainer very long unless I am doing intervals. I love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UglyBob Posted December 12, 2014 Share #9 Posted December 12, 2014 Tell you what, I'll put a GoPro on Bosox and then email you the footage so you have something different to ride to every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zealot Posted December 13, 2014 Share #10 Posted December 13, 2014 Don't get me wrong Z ... it keeps me going ... its a love/hate thing. LOL :-) I love the burn; the complete and utter exhaustion from total effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randomguy Posted December 13, 2014 Share #11 Posted December 13, 2014 People who pick out songs for videos like that are typically not good song pickerouters, I have noticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
