CES Indoor Cycling - Spring 2020


IndoorCycling.jpg

It's time to get back at it and start building the foundations for a great 2020 cycling or triathlon season! These Spring classes focus on the transition from base miles and strength based workouts to more intense, threshold and anaerobic based workouts. The goal is to make you more comfortable (loosely used term) with working near your threshold for extended periods and to be able to adapt to changes in ride pace once you move back to outdoor rides. This phase of training will combine leg speed drills, endurance rides, TT efforts and shorter high intensity efforts. This is a great program to prepare for the outdoor season, whether you're a triathlete or an avid cyclist.

Improve your basic cycling skills, stop guessing at how hard you should be working and make the most of your time on the bike! Using your own bike, on state of the art computerized Computrainer stationary trainers, our coaches will lead you through a great workout each week, all based on your own current abilities. Improve your cycling technique and efficiency, so you're getting more power & speed with less effort!

You'll also learn proper bike setup, warmup & cooldown protocol as well as cycling specific stretching.

Don't go it alone — join us and see how much more fun it is when you ride with others!
