Xert Daily Ditty – Using Intensity to Achieve Your Weekly Suggested FOCUS.

In Today’s Xert Daily Ditty, I’m showing how sliding the Freshness Feedback bar changes the suggested workout and intensity, and how the past two days of workouts affected my Weekly FOCUS.

I’m also going to talk about using the Xert TTE-TTR Field to achieve a Suppressed and a Depressed MPA during workouts.

Enjoy the Ride!

Today’s Xert Daily Ditty – Changing the Training Advisor Recommendations by Changing the Freshness Feedback.

Today’s Xert Daily Ditty

A Simple Proposal.

I'm offering my readers, coaching clients, and prospective readers A Simple Proposal. I'll be placing my past and future webinars behind this paywall, and instead of offering separate charges for Webinars, I'm going to fold them in with the blog membership. You'll be able to read all the blog's contents, watch past webinars, all future webinars, and their recordings, for $9.99 a month. I MAY offer Group Fitness Classes through the blog membership when that becomes available; we're not there yet, so we'll have to see. Anyway, I'd like to hear your opinion. The Xert Daily Ditties take about an hour each, and of course, Webinars take time, but they work best when there's lots of interaction and they're set to a regular schedule. With that, here's the Webinar from January 1st. I'll post a blog later today. Thanks for Reading, and Enjoy the Ride!

Xert FOCUS Line

The Xert BUILD Phase - 3 weeks in.

Xert Garmin 1030 Rollers
I use the Garmin 1030 with Xert Fields to follow my plan, per the Xert Adaptive Training Advisor.
I've been enjoying the rides on my Rollers, but I have been neglecting the Web Log, so now it's time to update everything. Following the SMART acronym, I'm now 3 weeks in to the Xert Build Phase. Let's start with setting some goals, and then discuss the Xert Build Phase.
