Thank you.

Are you sure Basement Tempo Advanced has the bike workout? I just recently bought this video and I didn’t see the bike involved. Are you sure it wasn’t ADVANCED TWO?

You are correct. For some reason if you go to the store the bike tempo DL is not listed among those and you have to go to training videos to find the bike tempo DL. When I did not see bike specifically mentioned I thought it had to be the one I linked.

I hope I did not throw off Nycjay01 into buying the wrong item-if so, my apologies. In any event you can’t go wrong with these items.

Here it is.

I can’t believe how stupidly I was doing bike tempo before I got this video. It really adds a lot of versatility in case you’re trapped in a hotel or have bad weather, and it’s structured super smart so I never get tight from it.

Thanks. No worries. This will come in handy during the winter.

i live in massachusetts and run high school indoor track, so during the winter my facilities are pretty limited. i have access to a stationary bike, but im not sure whether i should buy the basement tempo for intermediates, or the bike workout (which is listed under advanced).

my physical fitness is pretty good, but i am not that fast (~11s 100). i would like to use some indoor tempo to help me recover from the busy meet schedule moreso than condition. is this bike workout more for fitness or recovery? and does anyone have recommendations?

I would recommend the bike workout which can be used to elevate fitness, maintain fitness or flush muscles ( one effect of tempo) from heavy training including lifting, running or alternate sports where getting off your feet might be a desireable goal.
try it and if you have any questions let me know.

I downloaded the bike workout, and got a zip file. when i click on this and unarchive it, it gives me a wmv file. when i try to open this wmv file, however, my compouter says that it is not a video file? I have a mac if this makes any difference.

am i doing something wrong?

double post

21

I will take a look and get back to you shortly

22

thank you!

the mac only lets me open the wmv as a txt file… strange

23

so are you still not able to download correct?

24

ive figured it out with joe, the site was updating while i downloaded. the reason i cant play it on the mac is because it doesnt support wmv files. i have the wmv on a cd, and im going to try to convert it to an mp4 on a pc, but windows media player wont let me… is it just stuck as a wmv?

25

Not sure if this program works on a mac, but it does convert wmv to mp4. There is a free version which takes a bit of figuring out, but it works fine.

Please post when you get this figured out. I plan on buying and downloading onto my mac. I’ll let you work out the bugs for me before proceeding…
