Dual user programme?

[Hudson1984]

Hi all,

In the process of planning a bit of a pain cave. Which will have a turbo setup.

Wife and I will be sharing the turbo and I wondered if there are any dual user programmes for training or is it a case of each having our own subscription. Only reason I ask is the wife isn’t likely to use it a lot, perhaps twice a week for 30 mins each time.

I intend to “train” a bit more, I’ve had a new hip and other than walking the dog I do sod all these days and I’m keen to get the weight off which has piled on now I permanently work from home coupled with lockdown and the hip

So. Two subscriptions or does anything allow multi users?

Mrs Tenkaykev and I use " Fulgaz" It allows a second user but if I remember correctly this is if you take out an annual subscription. There's the usual 2 week free trial if you want to check it out. The video's are good quality and there's quite a range from all over the world. When we first got a smart trainer in the first lockdown, we tried several of the Apps to find one that suited us. With Fulgaz, once you've finished the ride it saves it to your workout calendar and you also get an email with an attachment that imports directly into Garmin connect.

Ah ok, I’ll have a look at it. Only have experience with Sufferfest and zwift. Much preferred Sufferfest for results but zwift for engagement

See what your suggestion offers

We tend to use it most for the scenery You can select rides by distance / country / toughness / etc. There's also the structured training drills but I only had a play with a couple of them, preferring to cycle through the snow fields of Norway in a vain attempt that the snow would make me feel a bit cooler during last summers heat wave 😎

If she uses RGT cycling there’s a free option (no time limit) and that’ll be fine for 30 mins twice a week. It’s a virtual world similar to Zwift but different.

Being honest, that’s all the wife is likely to do.

Cycle about for half hour and be happy to have done it.

I want something a bit more structured, I liked with zwift and Sufferfest that I knew what days I need to be doing what and just going and getting on with it

If your wife happened to be under 16 then a free kids account is available.

There’s a lot of inappropriate jokes I could make…I’ll just nod lol

I have MrsF on a kids account. She doesn't use Zwift enough to pay a sub.

If the Zwift licensing police come knocking I will happily look them in the eye and tell them that all my wives are under 16!

If your wife just wants to ride on zwift for example for a bit and isn't worried about saving the ride, you could just adjust the weight on your profile while she rides (rememberingto change it back again at the end!) , and not save the ride when she's finished
