Power on that pedal

Enthusiasts can try their stamina by tracking power and progress with a unique Pedalling Effectiveness Score. Castelyn, who will be supervising the workshop, points out that "the accurately calibrated power training device continually feeds data back to the athlete and coach, who can then use these metrics to address weaknesses and strengths".

This will appeal not only to competitive and elite athletes, but also to recreational bikers looking to get more wear from their workouts. Khan adds, "We decided to bring this technology to India in order to give fitness-conscious people, especially those participating in marathons, an effective tool to improve their performance."

The goal of the workshop, which combines theory and practical implementation, is to also acquaint participants with various performance metrics such as base strength, power-to-weight ratio, maximum power and aerobic fitness, and to teach them ways to optimise their oxygen consumption during intense workouts. The two experts will also share information on other off-feet modalities that can be leveraged by non-cyclists.

ON: Today, and October 3, 1 to 4 pm
AT: Pro Sports Fitness, 1301 Morya Bluemoon, New Link Road, Andheri West.
