1. Gear Review: by Lee Zohlman
CompuTrainer, PowerTap, Ergomo and SRM are all fine power meters each with their own strengths and weakness’. I have used them all for myself and for Coach Erinne’s training and also have used them in conjunction with many athletes training and racing programs. Recently I started using the SRM system, which is considered to be the gold standard in power meters. Through research and testing the SRM systems have been found to be the most accurate and reliable power meters in the world. I have been a long time reader of Pro Cycling and Cycle Sport magazines and anytime there was a good picture of a pro cycling team and they had the unmistakable head unit that reads, ‘www.SRM.de’ I cringed with excitement. SRM is the power meter of choice for the pros and I just had to have one. After a few years with PowerTap and Ergomos I was excited to see what all the hype was about. So after I had my trusty mechanic Javier at Bike Tech Miami do a seamless, clean and beautiful installation I was ready to go ride I thought. Then I remembered that power meters aren’t that simple to get up and going with so I did my hours of worth of reading and approached my unit!
I did all the torque settings and also the other calibration and set my time and date. The instructions were easy and actually quite funny to read and I set off on my first ride. I did an hour at easy pace and while I was riding I noted the following:
- I liked that the elapsed ride time and the distance rotated on the top bar.
- The HR, power and speed were easy to read even with a zero degree angle of the head unit.
- It was easy to scroll thru the avg. and max screens
So I came home and plugged it into the laptop and started up my Cyclingpeaks WKO software. I changed the settings to SRM and the USB port and boom it was downloading. That was easier then the Ergomo and PowerTap set ups. They took hours to find the right ports. The ride was flawless in terms of no interruptions and all the info was there that I needed. SO, I am a happy cyclist with an accurate power meter. Final conclusions:
- I like knowing that my data is the most accurate available
- I like the size of the head unit and that it fits clean between my bars

2. Training article: Choosing a Triathlon Coach By Lee Zohlman
I believe I can speak with some authority on this (trust me it's the only thing I can speak on-don't know much else in life) and to give some back ground I was one of the first batch of 30 or so USAT certified coaches in 98. Since 2000 I have been helping USAT by presenting to aspiring new coaches on various subjects. After going through the USAT Level Three certification almost two years ago I really began thinking about this subject and the various moving parts.
