I’m Marcus, your host here at Garmin’s training video series.
For cyclists, when you’re committed to your training, you’re all in.
And if you’re all in, you need tools that will challenge you to maximise your workouts and keep you motivated.
Well, let me introduce you to an app that lets you use the world as your playground – The Tacx Training App.
As a seamless integration with your Tacx smart trainer, this app offers some exciting features, such as high-quality Tacx films, and live opponents.
With our large collection of high-quality films, you’ll be able to explore the world without ever leaving your home,
from famous spring classics to the steep hills of the Alpes.
When paired with a Neo Smart Trainer or Neobike, you’ll even have the simulated feeling of riding on different road surfaces,
such as cobblestone and gravel, as well as see your cycling dynamics on the screen.
And new films are released on a regular basis to help keep your workouts fresh and exciting.
And who likes to ride alone? I mean, you’re already grinding it out on your own, in your pain cave.
Well, now you can join the ride with live opponents and get the motivation needed to up your game.
Everybody who’s riding the same course will appear on a timeline at the bottom of the screen.
So now, you can compete against your friends.
And if you’re like me and don’t have friends or anyone to ride with,
you can race against your previous rides and challenge yourself to beat yesterday!
When you train, you don’t want strong head winds or a rainy day holding back your progress.
Well, with the 3D map view, you can explore the world while you train.
Imagine the possibilities since you can re-ride your favourite outdoor ride, indoors, any day or any time.
Let me expand on this a little further. You can use the create a course feature on Garmin connect and export that course to the Tacx Cycling app.
Ride your favourite local ride or race everyday to train for that big race – Anywhere in the world.
You can even download your race course ahead of time to crush your friends on race day!
Now that you know you can ride where you’d like, you need a training plan that can keep up.
Well let me introduce you to the Tacx training room.
The Tacx training room is where you can become the cyclist you’ve always wanted to be with the vast library of training plans.
Whether your discipline is Endurance based, sprint based or anything in-between, you’ll find a plan for you.
And if you don’t want to use one of those plans, you can create your own!
Check out the description of the video for more information on the training plans.
Within the app, your speed, power, cadence and heart rate are displayed on-screen while you ride.
Then they can easily be accessed after your workout to help you analyse your training.
And let’s face it, we all want the easiest and most convenient experience you can get.
So, with the Tacx Training App, you can create or upload rides from your Edge bike computer
or the app syncs seamlessly with your Strava account,
allowing you to export and share all your activities and training data with your friends on Strava.
