Favorite Trail:Demo Forest
Duration Product Used:3 months

Bike Setup:Litespeed Tuscany on Cycleops fluid trainer
Bottom Line:This video came with my Cycleops trainer. I wouldn't have bought it on my own and didn't use it right away. Out of curiousity, I decided to try it out. I was quite surprise how beneficial it was. After the first 6 weeks using this video 3 times a week, as suggested, my power and speed on climbs showed a marked improvement. I noticed a 1 to 2 gear difference (lower gearing) at similar HRs I used prior to using this video. I'm glad it came with the trainer. I probably purchase a few more CTS videos just for the change of pace. They do get boring after the first few weeks. I got so I memorized the timing of it all and see movies while on the trainer using the same workout routine. Hey, if Lance uses it, I'm sure I can benefit from one of his training routines. I may not win a tour, but any help to maintain or beat my buddies up the next climb is money well invested. Four turds because they do get repetatively boring watching the same video.
