2023 Subscriptions Ramsay Posted September 14, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Ta Billy. Will have a look over it in the next ten days or so, and see if I understand it all! Â Was downloading stuff from the tacx website yesterday. They really do have a good free selection! Â Are we doing a pre start weigh in and/or fitness test? Â R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Cheers Coach, Â Couple of points for clarification (I did warn you) BRA / BRT? You may well have explained these earlier and I've been daydreaming at the back of the class. If so, just point me in the direction of the earlier post and I'll go read, if not could you enlighten the dullard. Â Â M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions Ramsay Posted September 14, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Mark,  BRA/BRT - go and download the Tacx turbo training programmes and all will become clear!  http://www.tacx.com/nl/tacx-coach/index.dot  There are 7 programmes, which all seem to have 12 sessions, so plenty to keep us busy!  R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions charlie p Posted September 14, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 BRA endurance workout BRT RPM workout If you go to tacx site and click on tacx coach all will be revealed. each have 12 different programmes getting progressively harder. At base level Billy is suggesting that you find a programme between 1&4. by using your heart monitor you will soon work out which programme suits.

Guest EPCC Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Just a quick note for week one where the turbo session is in brackets do that one if this is your first stab at a structured training plan The sessions are divided into three programmes of four sessions P1 starts at 1,4,7,10 P2 2,5,8.11 p3 3,6,9,12  They are all progressive always try and ride at the cadance ang gear specified If too hard lower slope again if too easy increase slope These session will take your heart rate up but don't worry  The base training phase has been split with the first four weeks just really getting is used to the sessions and improving endurance The bike ride should be fairly easy on not overly taxing on the body The second part will be harder and we will include a strength turbo session along with the start of the gym strength phase  Ideally we should have a weigh in and a test sometime before October any suggestions Those who are multi sport should adapt to suit easiest turbo session to drop would be technique but if you are building endurance by swimming running maybe drop the endurance turbo set  Will post a guide to hr over the weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Fox Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Anyone available to show me the ropes on weight training as I've never used them before, or planning to join a gym for the training and wants company? May also be beneficial to at least start the training program in a group? Cheers Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Alan I use pure gym cheap and next to my work I will try and attend turbo nights in club rooms  Could do a wee intro next Tuesday night  Also all will need to find out max heart rate and work out zones also will need to do functional power test required as a measurement tool and also for build phase when using power more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Committee Alan McLean Posted October 1, 2012 Committee Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Hi girls, Â I started my training tonight too. Â 30k ride home in bonkers rainstorm, 360m of climbing, hit the hills hard with full light set and pannier to give extra weight. Â I dried off in the crepuscular rays of a beautiful autumn sunset over Strathgryffe. Â No computer or power meter. Just going by feel and lactic burn. Â You indoor cissies are preparing to fail. Â Strip off your gym leotards, man up and come out here in the real world. Â Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
