How to Ride and Lose Weight in the Winter
This past winter, I invested in a Blackburn Trainer for my bike. I was able to put the back wheel up on a resistance wheel and workout all winter long in the comforts of my basement.
Because of the boredom associated with pedaling and staring at th
Trek Pilot 1.2, outfitted for winter riding on Blackburn stand
e wall, I decided to make my workouts more about intensity than time. When the warm season came, I was in great shape for intervals, but needed to target my distance rides more. All in all, I would not have changed much.
I created a video on how to mount your bike on a trainer, and some tips I found for getting the trainer cheap, which was a huge plus.
Enjoy the video!

Awesome! These bad boys can get a little expensive, so make sure you hit up Ebay or Craigslist to get them on the cheap. I would love one of these, alas I have limited room and since its summer, I am constantly outside biking, but this is ideal to stay in tip top shape during the winter. Great tips, baby!!
