Technogym has released a new training solution set to transform outdoor cycling. MyCycling combines a hi-tech smart trainer with an app to develop personalised training. It also features Technogym Neuromuscular Training (TNT), a unique training system designed to increase neuromuscular and metabolic functions in order to improve outdoor cycling performance.
Technogym’s Medical and Scientific Research Centre collaborated with physiologists, coaches, athletes and trainers to create the TNT system.
The smart trainer provides stability during training and has an electro-mechanical brake with precision control, a torque sensor to measure power with a precision tolerance of +/- 1 per cent and optical sensors to analyse thrust.
MyCycling’s companion app connects to the smart trainer via Bluetooth, with users placing their smartphones on the handlebar support to start training.
The MyCycling app features personalised programmes, consisting of 40-70 minute training sessions. Users undertake two preliminary indoor tests to determine anaerobic power. The results are used to create an 18 week personalised training plan.
Paul Morris, consumer sales and marketing director at Technogym, said: “We wanted to make a solution to help cyclists and turbo trainer users take their performance to the next level through personalised programmes and intuitive feedback.”
