Indoor Rider

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Rich Pady is a racing buddy from Ontario.  He currently runs an awesome training group and coaching business called “Healthy Results”.  His latest venture is called “Indoor Rider”.  It’s a great idea if you are looking for ways to stay motivated on the trainer this winter and even throughout the year.  Rich has worked incredibly hard to get Indoor rider up and running and I think it’s going to be a hit!


Richard Pady has created Indoor Rider.  Indoor Rider is a series of cycling video workouts for you to download from Indoorrider.com once a week. The program builds you slowly, safely, and in the most time efficient way towards success. When you join, you are provided with a new video every week, each approximately one hour in length. You will increase your fitness and power while staying excited about your training and not getting bored this winter.

By following the program, you will train smart and avoid overtraining or burn out this season. The sessions allow you to work at your own level and progress at your own pace.  Everyone has something to gain and learn from training with Coach Pady.

On top of the weekly videos you get the opportunity to workout with Olympic Gold and Silver medalist Simon Whitfield. Simon’s videos will be available to members with an annual subscription only.
