Power Cranks Spin Class

Powercranks are a fantastic tool for riders of all ability levels. Enjoy the suffering, I mean class.

Ouch,

So where'd you find a spin class that uses Power Cranks???

Ken, do you know if PowerCranks have any effect on ones running?

What the heck is a powercrank? And what does it do for me?

LOL...that made me laugh

For me, a piece of training equipment that turned an experienced rider into someone whose legs resembled jello.......apparently my legs only work together. It really is a matter of practice....and yes, they can be for any level of rider. So basically it was a spin class with part of the time locking in the power cranks....a local triathlete has a personal fitness business and has them on 8 of his spin bikes.

I have no data to support that Powercranks htlp running (I do for cycling), but endurance in the hip flexors should, intuitively, help runners maintain a higher turnover even when fatigue, which would improve triathlon running performance.

I think they will help your running, but that is an opinion that is not based in empirical data.
