I just purchased a bike and a Kinetic Trainer, got fit at my LBS and now want to get to it but need some advice.
I have a nice set up in the basement with a TV and radio and everything I need to spend some quality time on the bike. I live in the Northeast and don't have equipment to be outside yet due to the cold weather.
I'm in relatively decent fitness, just ran a marathon on 1/13. I'm a former BMX'er looking to move from my old PK Ripper to my new Scott. Although I recognize there is not a direct correlation between running and riding BMX, I'm relatively fit and ready to go. My ultimate goal for this summer is to have the ability to ride a century.
How should I spend the time on the trainer? Shoot for time? Distance? Intervals? Get a video like Spinervals? Are there websites or links to workouts? Ideally, I want to spend 3-4 days per week on it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
