We tackled assembling the bike as a family project. ru-vid.comUgkxzg0clhbtRf2gGxPkVETFKJJKGqdsorQu The package is heavy, but I have 2 teen boys that were able to move it. The written instructions were great- we didn't need to watch the videos, but it was good knowing that the option was there if we needed it. After we were able to get it set up, the boys each rode 3 miles and I rode 8 and the bike stayed quiet. The display is easy to reset, and you can put it on whichever setting you are using (time, distance, calories, etc). I will say that my butt is a little sore from the seat, but that could be because I haven't rode in a while. While it is comfortable for me, it was not comfortable with the seat position for my friend (could not move the seat back far enough and he slightly looked like a kid riding a tricycle that he had outgrown). He also said that the seat hurt his manly parts. We are going to look for a different seat that will be compatible with this bike for him.I did purchase the Wahoo Cadence sensor and strapped it to the crank of one of the pedals. This will sync with my Apple Watch, iPhone and will import data in to my Health app. Wahoo does have other sensors available other than cadence. I can also keep either my phone or my iPad on the display and they both feel pretty secure.
I am always going back to these training videos. Simon is superb just so professional generally and has a relaxed quirky personality and great all round knowledge that keeps you returning to G.C.N on many fronts.
We used this workout for the WholeHealth team lockdown turbo today and it was great. A short rewarding, painful effort that helped us forget what's going on outside for a bit. Forget everything except getting through the next interval, in fact! Thank you.
These guys from GCN are phenomenal. I use their cycling sessions for cross training for Spartan Races and I consistently finish in the top ten for my age group. GCN is priceless!!
Back again! Tough one! But love the instruction, explanation and challenge. Also love imaging myself chasing Alberto or even better, Matt Stevens. =) Will be back again. THANK YOU!
Really nice session, Simon! Thank you so much to you for leading the group, and all your efforts throughout the session, as well as the efforts of the group. Great job all around! Very inspired to keep training! Cheers!
I do these videos on a spin bike at the gym as I don't have a bike any more but I find them great! So hard but so rewarding! I like to think, if I can get over my fear of biking around cars and buses, then these will help me a real bike too!
Once again GCN delivers the goods. This is a good start to my day, I'm riding this one 3 days out of the week and for the other two days doing the hill climb intervals. Great winter workouts, thanks GCN.
I have a primitive no frills Schwinn spin bike that was given to me. After researching "Carol" bikes I needed to find some HIIT Spin Videos - Thank You!!!
I have been working out with this particular video for almost 2 years and it has been a huge help.. Twice a week Wednesday and Friday.. Thank you for sharing..
Never watched a session before and always struggled away watching music videos but now I'm converted to your training videos it's hard enough to be inside on the turbo but now listening to Simon talking through the pain actually helps the session pass by thanks Gcn.
I do this session twice a week mon and thu. Absolutely brilliant my legs are stronger, made me faster , I hardly have to stop at lights as I know how to time it.glad no nutter on my commute to work. Love it
Love this and other workouts. I was riding the Caledonia Etape the other week at my turn at the front of the chain gang, I was giving the same chat to my fellow riders behind me as I put in the power "Contador's / Beaumont / Boardman is up ahead, let's keep with him, let's get ready to make our move! " Glad I'd put this training in!!
I've done loads of your vids in the last 6 weeks... however this one.. ( set hard in terms of my dumb turbo regarding resistance) is AWESOME for MTbers... my lord... on max resistance on my ancient little turbo... ( you've got me to progress from the easiest..) I was destroyed. Massive grats... just what I needed. Sat down, hard as hell... perfect. I had to have a lie down after.
Doing this 3 to 4 times a week with this quarantine thing, you guys are monsters riding the bike. I love this workout, please post more like this yikesss
LOVING these videos as cardio while I put my first, love, running while i figure out what happened to my hip 😭 no excuses tho, i can go so hard on bike and hip is never bothered.
Great workout! Especially after my legs felt completely dead from the GCN workout I did yesterday. So needed during this Covid epidemic. Thank you GCN!
