 53 |  Subject: Training with poweri just purchased a power meter after a few sessions using trainer road virtual power. I'm synced up with golden cheetah. There are tons of pre-built workouts that I'd like to use, but I'm having a tough time figuring out which ones to select. My offseason is dedicated to improving my swim and bike, and I'll run I between. I've done 6 sprints this year and want to progress to the point where I can do olys pretty comfortably this coming season. Can anyone point me to a source that can help me understand how to select the appropriate structured workouts? Thanks! |

Lots of great information in this power mentor thread as well. Edited by Birkierunner 2015-11-17 8:28 PM |

| 53 | Subject: RE: Training with power Thanks Birkierunner and Donto. I'm reading through the power mentor thread, lots of good information there and it's long. I'm only 8 pages in of the 70+ pages. I'll check on the cycling programs once I get through that. I'm guessing I'll find the written workouts and I can just go into the pre-loaded workouts in golden cheetah and match them up. Once I got the power meter, I didn't rally have a need for the monthly fees that trainer road required, but it was worth the money for the virtual power prior to having a power meter. |

I Think the files for GC are in the thread. I happen to have the cliff notes for each of the weeks in a word/pdf doc if your interested. If you want it email me (my email is listed in my profile) and I can send it to you. |
