Workout Wednesday: When The Weather Gets Tough, Toughen Up On The Trainer

For this Workout Wednesday, the time for comfortably sunny outdoor riding is drawing to a close. Saddle up indoors and giddy up with a trainer ride! Although outdoor riding is spiritually freeing and lots of fun (just look at that picture OMG it’s gorgeous!), riding indoors has many benefits. First, there are no stop lights, angry drivers, and far fewer interruptions to steady riding. Your bike will experience far less wear and tear, especially since it isn’t being exposed to the winter road conditions. Since it is a workout wednesday, an indoor ride is the perfect place to do your low cadence intervals from last week's Pure Endurance workout without risk of interruption!

Tips from the Posse for indoor cycling: Have a fan pointed at you for air flow to prevent overheating. Indoor riding is a great time to have a good conversation with a buddy, catch up on your favorite tv series, or watch a movie to keep yourself entertained. Always remember to bring a towel and don’t forget to stay hydrated and properly fueled.
