Great video for a 20 minute threshold test

Great video for a 20 minute threshold test

I used Epic Planet's video Epic Acadia this morning in a class I subbed. Because these early AM people are very committed and they all understand the value of Threshold based training, I knew I could lead them on a ride that included a 20 minute climb at (or very near) Threshold. The first 30 minutes are a perfect warm up with a number of short climbs I used to bring them to Threshold before we got to the climb. The graphical representation of where you are during the class is the best of any of the DVD creators that I have experienced, although I'm not completely sure what TZ 4-5 means. I assume TZ stands for Training Zone and if we only had a universal standard for what TZ stood for …

UPDATE  – Now there are more great videos for running a 20 minute field test for FTP or threshold Heart Rate.

If you are planning a field test this maybe the perfect video to use.

That's the 20 minute climbing segment

Many instructors tell me that teaching indoor cycling has ruined their appreciation of music.  They say that once you become an instructor music comes in only two genres, can be used in class or not.  This is sad but true.  I have been experiencing a different problem since I started using video in my classes.  Now when I watch YouTube videos they are put into the same categories.  I am stuck in the never ending quest for the best videos to use in my classes.  Every once in a while someone posts a gem that magically appears in my Facebook News Feed,  this week the gem was posted by non other than our very own John Macgowan.
