Your LBS is right- the later Spinervals options are of much higher production quality than the early ones. I like Hillacious and Time Saver I. I've also heard lots of good things about The Sufferfest downloads.

Both Selkie and I have reviewed several of the Spinervals videos. You can do an advanced search using either of names and searching on Spinervals.

+1 for Sufferfests. They have a special going right now if you get them all in one big chunk, which I am now regretting getting them piecemeal. They are *hilarious* in addition to being stupid brutal.

Can you burn them to DVD and play them on a normal DVD player for TV? I am looking at their site, but it looks like that might not be possible. I will ask them Originally Posted by gnat23

I have to admit that I ahve done the Spinervals for so many years that I enjoy them. Although Iwill also say that I downloaded a couple from Sufferfest last year and liked those as well! I actually use both in my trainer class, and "yes" you can play the Sufferfest on the TV.
Have fun with the new trainer... it may not be as fun as riding outside, but you'll enjoy the added fitness come spring!

And I loathe Spinervals workouts. Give me Sufferfest or Robbie Ventura's Real Rides series ANY day. I want to shove Coach Troy's stopwatch down his throat...dude is not nearly as funny as he thinks he is.Kirsten

I really like the Endurance Rides DVDs. You have a choice of coached or just music. I did a review of their Las Vegas DVD a while ago that you can check out.
