The 2012 swim/bike/run gear I use list

www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/09/the-2012-swimbikerun-gear-i-use-list.html

I’ve bought a lot of them (the others are temporary trial units), and the CompuTrainer is the workhouse that ‘always works’, but it’s not my favorite, and not what I’d recommend as of September 2012.

After asking some questions about what didn't feel right, how much I cycling and a number of other things; we put my bike up on a Computrainer and he had me start cycling.

Two cages down

www.dcrainmaker.com/2010/03/two-cages-down.html

Now note that because I’m on a CompuTrainer I pretty much control the wattages – so this isn’t an outdoor…

Behind the scenes on product reviews

www.dcrainmaker.com/2010/12/behind-scenes-on-product-reviews.html

You may remember this room as the ‘CompuTrainer’ room, though, really – it’s just the ‘place we put stuff we can’t find a place for’.

Pool and Parking lot bricks

www.dcrainmaker.com/2010/03/pool-and-parking-lot-bricks.html

Normally when I’m on the CompuTrainer the speeds are irrelevant because the resistance is a constant (watts) – even if I change gears.
