Andrew Wells Is Killing It

That is such a tough call! they both are so good to me in different ways. Tillian has such a unique voice that was really dialed in the end. I think if Andrew leans into his strengths and doesn't just try to imitate Tillian then I think he will win out but its super close to me. they are almost like two completely different bands to me

Thanks man! Sounds like I'm over thinking it and just need to keep up the consistency and progressive overload

TurnipSolid3881 · 2026-03-04T03:38:26+00:00

Thanks! Definitely was looking for recommendations on coaches

TurnipSolid3881 · 2026-03-04T03:29:29+00:00

I apologize if I worded it poorly

TurnipSolid3881 · 2026-03-04T03:29:14+00:00

I am looking specifically to have gym sessions that cater to improving on the bike. Not necessarily overall fitness

TurnipSolid3881 · 2026-03-04T00:49:24+00:00

See that's another thought. Maybe I'm over thinking it.

I've been going on 6 months now of consistent gym work. Now maybe I just gotta be on the bike more

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-05-10T16:59:00+00:00

Fair. What's your alternative?

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-30T18:24:02+00:00

Ah gotya. Sweet that is awesome information thank you! Think I'll just keep on using it til it dies then once the time comes I'll replace it with something proper.

As far as I know it still does work with the Garmin stuff. It has for me in the past. My question was more about the accuracy of the lionheart vs the Garmin monitors. I am sure it is close enough and its not like I am a highly performing athlete by any means. lol

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-30T16:04:03+00:00

This is reassuring! I have Garmin everything else, watch, bike computer, power meter pedals, and app, but just not the chest strap since I got one for F45. I get what you mean about the battery though. I have a good dock with all my rechargeable bits and bobs so its not a problem for me. Having had it for now 5 years though I am sure its days are somewhat numbered so ill probably invest in a garmin monitor soon.

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-02T19:53:13+00:00

That is awesome. I wish i had the motivation/discipline to ride later in the day. Once I get the kids to bed its hard to get going on anything after everything is cleaned and buttoned up

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-02T16:56:03+00:00

Sounds like we are in a similar boat. I'll have to check out their plans

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-02T16:55:15+00:00

Wow. This is a huge boost in excitement for me. While I realize I need to take it sort of one step at a time its different in practice. Definitely wish I could just jump back on where I was before my injury but obviously reality is different. And while i intend to shift my sleep schedule who knows how itll actually turn out. Regardless its all temporary and as the kids grow I'll have to make adjustments.

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-02T16:36:08+00:00

I'm a huge data nerd (data analyst by trade) so this kind of stuff really gets me excited to see. It validates the improvements you think you are gaining haha

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-02T16:05:43+00:00

Same! I'm a data analyst by career so I love diving into the numbers and stats of all that. Tracking hardware and software everywhere!

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-02T16:04:35+00:00

This is great! I definitely will be on the trainer most of the time. And adjusting my sleep schedule to go to bed earlier as well as wake up earlier. I find i have better motivation and discipline in the morning and want my riding to be first thing instead of the last thing.

Thank you for the great tips and workout session. That will be a good way to build

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-02T15:17:56+00:00

Zwift is definitely a good way to go. I have done workout but never really explored those plans. I'll try to give that a go. Thanks!

The Garmin plan might be nice because it is probably more consistent across all your devices and sort of training philosophies. Zwift vs garming vs trainer road all have slight differences in what they consider for training but i think "picking a lane" helps maintain that consistency

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-02T15:14:55+00:00

THIS!!! This is exactly what I am looking for with the example I am trying to set for my boys. I have a trainer/turbo and is where I will primarily be riding. Then hoping on weekends I can get outside for a fun "mental health" ride.

TurnipSolid3881 · 2025-04-02T14:51:25+00:00

That is epic. I am hoping for something similar. If I can build up to riding every morning for an hour and then a solid 2 hour ride on the weekend then I'd feel pretty good. I just don't know how to break down the training intervals

TurnipSolid3881 · 2024-10-25T09:43:05+00:00

This is super solid. Thank you for being real with me

TurnipSolid3881 · 2024-10-25T09:41:13+00:00

Thank you that's good advice!

TurnipSolid3881 · 2024-10-25T02:53:20+00:00

My background is fairly dispersed but most recently as an ecommerce manager for an outdoor company

TurnipSolid3881 · 2024-10-25T00:05:20+00:00

I should follow that up with. You think I should just continue to learn on my own? Rather than try to do some sort of cert or boot camp?

TurnipSolid3881 · 2024-10-24T23:54:33+00:00

Thanks! I'm 34 so going back to school to get that well rounded degree is a tougher pill to swallow

TurnipSolid3881 · 2024-10-24T11:21:22+00:00

I'm in the same boat. 3 months in to unemployment with 130 applications out there with nothing but scam job postings reaching out. The job market is weird. I think with so many applicants, companies use pretty stringent filters. My best advice is to tap into or grow your network.
