Dr Alinda Perrine joins me again! We discuss introducing Heart Rate Training to your Indoor Cycling Class and announce the formation of a NuMetrex Instructor Panel. One of the Instructor "testing" opportunities I was hinting about.
Alinda is the Celebrity Coach for NuMetrex and and creator of ZoneX™ Sensible Heart Rate Training.
About NuMetrex Strapless Heart Rate Monitor Clothes -from their site -The NuMetrex line of heart rate monitoring athletic apparel uses innovative “smart fabric” technology that incorporates special sensing fibers directly into the fabric of its garments. Replacing the hard plastic chest straps that rub and chafe against the skin, NuMetrex offers a comfortable alternative with form-fitting shirts and sports bras that sense your pulse and transmit it to a compatible wristwatch or exercise machine.
Links mentioned in this episode: Check out Alinda's informative Sensible Group Cycling, a two part series on teaching Indoor Cycle Classes using Heart Rate Monitors. Part 1Part 2 and all her other articles on fitness and Heart Rate Training @ www.NuMetrex.com/coachscorner
Information about how you can be part of the NuMetrex Instructor Panel will be sent out to members of our community on Sunday January 18th. If you haven't joined yet, its as easy as entering your First Name and email in the box on the right side of this page.

Video options for your Indoor Cycling class get better every day. In this episode I interview Allen Jones, creator of the epicRIDES series of virtual ride training videos. Allen's videos include a "dashboard" with helpful information about training zones, grade, ride profile, elapse time and where you are on the ride. Check out this sample video. UPDATE: August 2013 - Allen has been busy over the past 4 years and now offers 16 Indoor Cycling class videos from beautiful locations around the United States. http://youtu.be/NuR9HRb_1TI

Hi [firstname]
It's -5 below zero (F) here in Minneapolis as I write this. After listening to Ryan Hogan, from the Australian Fitness Network, describe how nice it is in Sydney I'm ready to go!
Ryan, Jennifer and I discuss Indoor Cycling Down Under (but no, he wouldn't give me a proper Good Day Mate).
New feature – We are including at the end of each Podcast a practical tip that you can use in your next Indoor Cycling Class. In this episode, Jennifer's tip is about queuing resistance. Listen to the Podcast below or subscribe using iTunes or Zune.
