This month we profile Wenzel Coaching's newest coach, Laurel Green. Laurel helps people to enjoy cycling in a wide variety of ways, whether it is coaching up & coming racers to their first win in a major road race, or teaching bike safety clinics to students in the district where she works full time as a teacher. Laurel brings together her experience as an elite competitor on the NRC race circuit with her degrees in Psychology and Kinesiology to help clients maximize their abilities.

Each month, the Wenzel Coaching newsletter brings you a free or economical resource to help you enhance your training. This month, we bring you Podrunner, a podcast with lots of great music for indoor workouts.

Since we are on the subject of indoor training this month, the Podrunner Podcast is a great resource to highlight at a time when much of the country is battling frigid temperatures. Podrunner is the creation of dj steveboy, and every week he brings you a new podcast featuring 1 hour long music selections to keep you cranking it over for those trainer workouts.

The websites found in the "Resource of the Month" are in no way associated with Wenzel Coaching and we are not responsible for any information they contain.

Use your power-meter's memory function to it's best effect: Don't just upload the data and walk away. Review the ride. Did you do what you were supposed to do? Did you hold the suggested cadence? The suggested power or heart rate? It is possible for a skilled rider to maintain power within just a few watts and heart rate within a few beats for many minutes at a time? How do you do at this?
