Winter Turbo Training – Starting 12th October 2011

After a successful 2011 season riding with GS Avanti and with those long sunny evenings now a
distant memory, it's time to start preparing for an Olympic 2012.

To help you through these dark times GS Avanti have secured the use of Westcombe Park Rugby
Club on Wednesday evenings for turbo training. To ensure your focus stays on turbo training GS
Avanti have arranged for Jimmy George of VO2 maximum to provide a structured workout to the
sessions, additionally will also be there in person every other Wednesday.

As GS Avanti are diverse bunch of cyclists, the structured workout will have two main training
paths: The 1st aiming to improve steady state power outputs, ideally suited to Time Trialists,
Triathletes and long distance riding; The 2nd aiming to improve dynamic power outputs, which is
more usually found in casual group cycling, sportives and bunch racing. To ensure you get the most
out of your time Turbo Training the first session on the 19th Octocber will be including a test on the
turbo trainer which will be used evaluate and customise your training path.

Do you know how long we're running these for Daz? Assuming they're running for a few weeks I might finally get there. Will non attendance so far be an issue?
