COMPUTRAINER-BASED SERVICES
A CompuTrainer is the ideal bike training tool. The combination of controlled power and instantaneous
technique feedback allow me to design sessions that address a variety of development needs.
Bike Fit
Whether beginner or advanced, road cyclist or triathlete, a bike fit can help. Fit is individual, there is no one right way. Fit is simply the process of finding a position that balances the needs of your body, your riding sytle, and your goals. But this one goes further. Whether we're optimizing aerodynamics without sacrificing power or simply finding comfort, it's also about education. This CompuTrainer service will provide a traditional fit, that ensures you are riding within a normally accepted range of positions, in conjunction with the extras that ensure you are optimizing what matters for you.
Although there is no replacement for training on the course you intend to race, the CompuTrainer is almost as good. Course simulations let you 'train as you race' or just enjoy a break from your traditional riding. Various race types and major courses are available to simulate, or a specific workout can easily be programmed. ErgVideo's are now available! ErgVideo's are available for a road race, a criterium, and a team trial.
Functional Power Tests
If you're looking to kick start a training program, this is the service for you. The FTP (functional threshold power) test protocol will provide you with data from which to build your training plan. For those cyclists and triathletes who want to train with power or by intensity (heartrate). A functional power test will provide you with an accurate set of power and heartrate training zones, done in a controlled environment. The Functional Power session ensures you are working from a set of results that are not influenced by outdoor environmental factors.
Power Analysis
If you intend to compete seriously, this service is for you. The power analysis is a test of critical powers that provide the data needed to compare your riding strengths against other competitive riders. By determining a
range of critical powers, we create a profile that illustrates your specific training needs.
Cadence Optimization
For the competitive cyclist and triathlete. Speed is a function of power and cadence. The importance of cadence is often overlooked as a tool to improve a cyclists speed. The Cadence Optimization session we created uses the power, efficiency, and effort measurements available with a CompuTrainer to identify your optimal cadence range.
