Subject: RE: Smart Trainer or Power Meter?I just went through this debate with myself. I couple years ago I got tired of my 'dumb' stationary trainer and got a set of 'dumb' rollers. The rollers where a holy crap this is hard type of learning curve, but after a couple of months I got it down. Then I had to move, then school, then a general decline in fitness, etc.. So I busted out the rollers again after over a year and that was a big Nope!, and I had given the old stationary trainer away to a friend. So It was time to upgrade. So I decided to get a dumb trainer and will eventually get a power meter. For now I will have to train with virtual power and heart rate zones. Anyways for what its worth I just ordered the Tacx Booster. 1050watts, 10 position manual resistance, etc. My IM training plan will have me doing 4 bike workouts a week, I would like to see it work out as 2 on the Tacx trainer, 1 on the rollers and 1 outdoor per week. https://tacx.com/product/booster/# |
