I would add environment! I had my bike in my dumpy garage and while that made me feel Rocky Balboa for a minute it soon became depressing. I reorganized the whole place and threw some colorful lights to make it more exciting to be there. Good video! 🎉
Found this channel through your collarbone video - dont know why you dont have more subs since you certainly deserve them. I will be having my collarbone surgery next week and your video helped me alleviate some of my anxieties. This one is nice, too. Subbed 😉
The biggest upgrade that made my indoor(zwift) setup better is Tacx motion plates, if you have any version of tacx neo they are definitely worth the investment, they totally change the experience and now 2 hours is nothing. Lasko pro fan for sure! I need to check out the other Lasko products:) I agree with the theory of use a comfortable bike, personally I use my best summer road bike so I can dial my fit better throughout the winter. This winter I moved my saddle forward to shorten my reach slightly and I also changed to shorter cranks and raised the saddle and bars accordingly to decrease my hip angle.
Great video and I say this as someone who has implemented many (possibly all) of these suggestions. They can make your trainer rides more comfortable... in the ways that it should be comfortable. 😅 I would add if you are unable to get a professional bike fit for your trainer, there are some decent virtual apps that can help with some easy modifications like saddle height, distance from handle bars, etc if you're unable to gauge that yourself.
Thanks, this was helpful. Last winter I avoided my trainer completely due to my disdain for Zwift. This season I'll be figuring out how to get useful workouts without a "trainer" program.

My bum does take a lot of abuse!
