| A Word from Coach Troy
|
Hello and thank you for receiving our e-news updates where we update you on new products and share new training articles, videos and information. There's frost on the ground here in Maryland this morning for the first time this year so I guess winter is just around the corner. It's time to get mentally prepared to spend lots of time training indoors (I know -- not very exciting!). The good news is that you can make great fitness gains this winter by training indoors if you have the proper attitude and the proper plan in place. Now is the time to map out your winter training plan. Don't get lazy and allow your hard work from this past summer be for nothing - maintain and then start gaining strength and aerobic capacity so that you come into the early season with a head start on your competition. Start by implementing our Spinervals Cycling Series and other indoor workout DVDs into your training 'diet'. Contact us at info@coachtroy.com if you have any specific questions or need recommendations about which DVDs are best suited for your needs.
