Nice little evening turbo session

[quote="Paul H"] I did a running session 1 hour afterwards - 10 x 1.5mins.

Its with the club and I do them as hard as I can bare in mind there is some tiredness in the legs from the turbo. It was 90s hard 30 secs rest 90 secs hard 90 secs rest etc.

I did my first turbo session over 35 minutes today - 2 hour at 140bpm average (max 147)

Changed the cadence to various levels between 70 and 112rpm

Like many I had problems with my racing saddle so changed it to the glitter one I used for the 12h - much better

I found it gets easier after 45 minutes. At the 1h mark I found myself thinking "only an hour to go"

It's actually quite nice to be on the bike when you can hear the rain falling with the back door open

I am not sure I will be so fond of sessions at 160bpm and more ... we'll see ...

Is that worse than the Tabata Protocol?

[huw williams]

Much worse - ask The Shadow, he's still having psychological adjustment therapy

Those Tabata wimps only do 4 minutes at a time don't they?

nice little name for a turbo trainer though no?
