What is Trainer Road?

Image003
Trainer Road is our new workout player for indoor cycling. Part of what makes our software unique is that it turns your PC into the head unit for any ANT+ devices.  That means it will display information in real time during your workout and save it to a variety of formats afterwards for further analysis. 
To use Trainer Road, you’ll need:
  1. A Bike
  2. A cycling trainer or rollers
  3. A Windows PC or laptop that can be positioned close to you while you’re on your bike (not too close if you’re on rollers).
That’s it. With those three things you’ll be able to find a workout from our library, hit play and perform the workout complete with visual (graph and text) cues telling you what to do for the entire workout. The cues will be based on an RPE scale of 1-10 in 0.5 increments.  And text instructions will tell you when to change position, cadence, and other tips you’d normally get in a live cycling class with a knowledgeable coach.
