I love them. I use them whenever I can't get out to ride or when I'm at the gym after some weight work. Went through a phase of 2 months waiting for insurance to replace my road bike when I did 3 sessions a week using them (so its hard to get bored of them).

 

Cant recommend them enough.

 

I regularly rotate through Fight Club, Angels , Revolver 45, and the new one IN a Dark place , although I have bought them all, these are my favourites.

Have to agree with the previous comments. If you have to work inside on a trainer I don't think you can get any better product!

I have four of them and don't get bored. Be warned though that they are a hard workout if you follow the on screen instructions.

Have to add I do believe they are effective. After my 2 month break from cycling and just doing the videos 2-3 times I came back stronger and fitter than before. As seen by comparing my times on Strava.

I haven't used them as much as I thought I would, but that's only because we had a drier winter than I expected. Great footage, interesting music and really motivational - it's hard to even want to bludge. My riding certainly seems to have improved, even with only limited use.

Considering the fact that you can download a workout for a quarter the price of a spinervals DVD they are excellent value. Fight Club is probably my favourite, although there is something about HHNF... ;o)

Yep, they are great. I've got Fight Club (good race simulation with the attacks and recovering-at-pace), and Local Hero (more of a longer slightly less intense workout). I've also got an old version of Revolver, which is short but just plain nasty!!
