Bored of your trainer yet?

Tired of sitting on the trainer doing hours of slow, endurance riding? Ready to shoot your TV if have to watch more Seinfeld re-runs, or watch NECN weather telling you it's gonna snow until June? Lets face it, this time of year can be a drag. Less light, and more hours inside means really having to be more time efficient if you want to build that base up, and be ready for the spring races. These two articles are on Sweet Spot Training. I thought i'd throw them out there.

these can be done indoors or outdoors, but if you're like me and have no tolerace for much more than an hour and a half on the trainer, these can be a great way to build volume and intensity without dragging yourself too deep in the hole. they are a tolerable alternative to long indoor rides, keep you interested, can be done multiple days in a row, and most important of all, get you fit.

Has Wells ave started yet?!
