Hence why I have bought a new battery for my scale, it was just saying "low" for two weeks it was nice being told my weight was low but then I got on a proper scale...

Some of them has stickers on saying 60min limit others nothing. Has spent more than a hour on one on a few occasions without any issues. Definitely can't be 20min like the other machines. Otherwise its a joke. Just enough time for a 20min FTP test!!

What pisses me off the most is when non-cyclist are spinning on the only 1 or 2 watt bikes out of the 100 other spinning bikes the gym have. These ladies & germs are easy to spot, not wearing spd shoes or cycling shorts. Just grates my tits!

I have been using it for a while on the IPhone, but doing it on a Just Ride as the warm up is to short for me.

According to my MMP I should do the 4 sessions of 10 minutes at 280 Watts but fall to 250 for the last set in the end.

 

After a few sessions I also came to the conclusion that my FTP that is 95% of my 20 min test will not be what I can achieve for 60 minutes.

is there an IPhone app? What is it called? Thanks

Wattbike, very nice app with preloaded programmes and nice tools. Just search wattbike in the app store

Try the "Building blocks" under endurance, a hard 57 minutes.

Agree, probably hardest programme I have done on Wattbike. Getting Speedy also nice but less in tense!!

Can you hold their recommended watts at the heart rate they say you should be on building blocks? For some reason the two seem very out of sync for me on this workout unlike the other speed focused ones.

People using Wattbikes as warm up bikes..... The reason that I might go full Columbine in a VA one day.
