Re: Trainer programs



Try Arne Baker's "Smart Cycling" which has some good indoor training
workouts and a lot of other good advice. Although the book is oriented to
racers and I am a recreational rider, I found it very helpful.

I also recently bought The Heart rate Monitor Workbook for Indoor Cyclists
by Sally Edwards and Sally Reed., which is essentially an entire book of
indoor cycling workouts, which isn't bad. The Sallys are very focused on
heart rate levels and monitoring and improving performance by working out
with a heart rate monitor, which is useful. However, I prefer Baker's book
because it gives more emphasis on developing various aspects of your riding
ability--spinning; strength/climbing; time trialing, etc.
