New to Indoor Training? Here’s How to Get Started 

Indoor training is one of the easiest and most effective ways to stay consistent on the bike, no matter your schedule, goals, or the weather outside. Whether you're tight on time, training with purpose, have poor local cycling infrastructure, or just want the convenience of riding at home, an indoor trainer helps you stay on track. 

Getting started is simple: all you need is your bike and a trainer. Our top pick? The JetBlack Victory Smart Trainer. It’s affordable, Zwift-ready, and offers features like Wi-Fi connectivity, auto-calibration for power accuracy, and real-time resistance with Race Response Mode. Plus, with IRL Ride Dynamics and quiet operation, it simulates outdoor riding like never before. 

Looking for alternatives? The Wahoo KICKR V6 and V5 are also excellent options, trusted by riders at all levels. 

To level up your setup, add a fan, towel, and water bottle within reach. A training mat or front wheel riser can also help with stability and floor protection. 

The best part? Sessions can be short and sharp even 30 to 45 minutes is enough to get a good sweat up! With apps like Zwift or TrainerRoad, you’ll never be short on motivation or variety. 

Whether you’re chasing new fitness goals or simply want more flexibility in your riding routine, an indoor trainer is the smartest way to ride from home.
