Hi all I’m in the middle of the low volume sustained power build, which is tough but just about manageable (Bashful+2 on Monday hurt!). I chose this one as I’m lousy on hills and I’m carrying more weight than I should (but gradually losing again). Hoping to boost my current ftp of 266. I’ve had to …

Running is great and easier to access. But people who don’t normally run may be at greater risk of injury. Just play it safe to keep the duration and intensity low enough.

I’m lucky that there’s a gym a couple of mins from my in-laws which has a bunch of stages spin bikes. I use the same one when I go there and calibrate it every time. i think it might overread a little but I have no way of really telling, but it’s close enough. Even if it’s a nicer spin bike it’s no …

It also gave …

What kind of setup / calibration is required? Do they ask you to input your FTP, and then pedal at different intensities for different durations to initially set this up?

I use them when I travel. The seats are murder on my hips. But, it’s better than nothing.

Use the bike and go for a ride and burn some calories in your body. :grinning:

start learning how to ride by feel. Understand what the different zones feel like. You could also bring a HR monitor which isn’t ideal, but would work for sustained efforts.
