  • The Ultimate Guide to Indoor Training Welcome
    THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO INDOOR TRAINING WELCOME Welcome to the British Cycling Ultimate Guide to Indoor Training. While there’s nothing to beat getting out on your bike and exploring new roads or trails, an indoor trainer is a brilliant tool for building fitness and for fitting in rides around work and family commitments. Without the distractions and interruptions of riding on the road, with an indoor trainer you can focus 100% on the efforts that you’re doing. There are no traffic lights where you can take a breather, no bends or dips in the road for a few seconds of blissful freewheeling and no other road users to distract you. Some riders will knock indoor trainers and say that they’re a “soft option”, “there’s no such thing as bad weather only bad clothing” or that “you should harden up and ride for real”. Yes, an indoor trainer does get you out of the cold and wet, but some of the hardest sessions we do are on the indoor trainer and are definitely not soft! Quality beats quantity, especially if your training time is limited, and, for a focused quality workout, an indoor trainer is hard to beat. In this guide you’ll find advice on which indoor trainer to choose, set-up tips, some classic workouts to try and loads more information that’ll tell you how to get the most out of your indoor cycling. Enjoy your indoor training and remember, every tough indoor workout you do through the winter will mean improved fitness and performance next spring and summer.

  • Evaluation of Accelerometer-Derived Data in the Context of Cycling Cadence and Saddle Height Changes in Triathlon
    sensors Article Evaluation of Accelerometer-Derived Data in the Context of Cycling Cadence and Saddle Height Changes in Triathlon Stuart A. Evans 1,*, Daniel A. James 1, David Rowlands 2 and James B. Lee 1 1 SABEL Labs, College of Health and Human Science, Charles Darwin University, 0810 Darwin, Australia; [email protected] (D.A.J.); [email protected] (J.B.L.) 2 School of Engineering, Griffith University, 4111 Nathan, Australia; d.rowlands@griffith.edu.au * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In the multisport of triathlon cycling is the longest of the three sequential disciplines. Triathlon bicycles differ from road bicycles with steeper seat tube angles with a change to saddle height altering the seat tube angle. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a tri axial accelerometer to determine acceleration magnitudes of the trunk in outdoor cycling in two saddle positions. Interpretation of data was evaluated based on cadence changes whilst triathletes cycled in an aerodynamic position in two saddle positions. The evaluation of accelerometer derived data within a characteristic overground setting suggests a significant reduction in mediolateral acceleration of the trunk, yielding a 25.1% decrease when saddle height was altered alongside reduced rate of perceived exertion (3.9%). Minimal differences were observed in anteroposterior and longitudinal acceleration. Evaluation of sensor data revealed a polynomial expression of the subtle changes between both saddle positions. This study shows that a triaxial accelerometer has capability to continuously measure acceleration magnitude of trunk movements during an in-the-field, varied cadence cycle protocol. Accessible and practical sensor technology could be relevant for postural considerations when exploring saddle position in dynamic settings.
