Good session last night - encourages you to do a little bit more than you might do on your own. We're slowly building up for a good start to next season. All club newcomers or those who haven't tried turbo's before are welcome 7 pm every Tuesday
Tri club turbo sessions start Tuesday the 5th October, 1900-2030 in the Motion and Performance Centre laboratory, Thomas Telford building on the University of Worcester campus (map). £3 for guests/non-members, all welcome.
The lab is a roomy, air-conditioned hall perfect for this sort of training. Showers are available in the nearby sports hall. Members are advised to use the small car park between MPC and the astro-turf pitch. Bikes and kit can be unloaded and brought in through the large firedoors at the rear of the building.
We have ~4 trainers available to borrow on the night (Tri club members have priority).
Turbo training is a great way of keeping legs and lungs turning over the winter months whilst improving technique, endurance, strength and lactate tolerance. Sessions will run in a progressive programme through until Spring '11. Since you ride at your own pace, it's easy to accommodate riders of all abilities. No one is left behind! Suggested kit list: - Bike (relatively clean please!) - Turbo trainer - Riser block for front wheel - Shorts, shoes, top for the ladies - Heart rate monitor (extremely useful but not essential) - Desk fan (a limited number available to borrow at venue) - Drink in water bottle - A couple of towels to catch sweat - one for you, one to cover the bike.
