I am loath to spend more than $20 on a workout DVD, but I need a good trainer workout for climbing. What do you gals recommend? I have the Sufferfest Angels, but I need some more. I am even willing to use a heart rate monitor for this! I have no power meter, so that is out.

We have and like Hillacious and Uphill Grind from Spinervals. I bet those are slightly over $20, but not too bad if you look around. I think they have been making some available for download for a reduced price as well.

Thanks Blueberry! Their "Spinervals on demand" are actually more expensive than buying the DVD through Amazon. I am looking at "Hillacious".

Robbie Ventura's training dvds are available for download (not sure how much). His climbing dvd is tough, but interesting because you climb with him as he uses a helmet cam and other cameras. Graeme Street also has some high intensity training climbing workouts.

That's just silly (that it's more expensive)! Thanks for the heads up - I had no idea:) I bought mine a few years ago from one of the big chain mail order bike shops - I think I had a 20% off coupon....
