Ride for many hours...

hehehehhe classic hub response

 

Back to your question, maybe re-think doing your endurance rides on a stationary bike, flippen boring. Rather do a up and over breedts. If you have to do it....I suppose keeping your heartrate between 70-85% of max of 3 hours with rests between every 10min for 30sec could be a good starting point...

Ride long at low to medium intensity, vary your cadence and throw in some extra mural core exercises on and off the IDT during your ride.

 

What's IDT?

how do i do endurance training on a stationary bike?

 

Dude - you cannot build endurance on a trainer and not go insane. More than 60 minutes on a trainer and you want to kill yourself.

 

Conentrate on quality rather than quality on the trainer - you'll be better off.

 

3 sessions on a trainer per week with one <3 hour ride on the weekend will be enough to club a sub 3 hour 94.7

Well if "endurance" means a long distance race or stage event then short tempo rides are not the right thing to do. BUT it is better than doing no training.

 

Doing IDT IT IDT for endurance is not ideal but it can be done if you have suitable distractions and motivation (dvd, music, something to take your mind of your numb ass). After doing a few 3 hr IDT sessions 3 hrs in the real world will feel like 1.5 hrs...
