Power meters

[ChrisG]

you guys may want to get a consensus on a brand and model PM, throw out an "interest" thread, and try to get some group buying power.

Don't you focking do this to me. I already have too much other dumb bike crap to buy.

Shame on you, there is no such thing as dumb bike crap!

Check out this link...

Here's a link with a PDF of a power-based program...It goes into a lot of detail about the what's and why's and how's...It's the prequel to the book I have...

You have the Coggan/Hunter book I imagine?

 

[Steve Vai]

I do...It's really good...

 

[Norm]

I have it, have read it a few times. The theory is valid regardless if you have a PM, even if some of the details don't do you any good. Do you participate in any of the power forums?

Ok..so as a woman I know that I probably have no business being in this thread on power tools or power meters or whatever you guys are talking about.

And I openly admit I skimmed...but Norm has a point. I followed a regular periodization program last season...no hr monitor, no power meter. Just a plan that I stuck to like glue and I had a great racing season in off road triathlon.

Low tech, low budget, high discipline.

Get a plan and follow it....

pssttt Norm ( who is the coach...)
