Experience Triathlon is excited to announce our Winter#3 eight-week session. Rides will once again range in length from 60-120 minutes, packed full of content to train every physiological system a rider needs to take their ride to the next level. Each class is personally coached, and with small class size, there is plenty of interaction time with other riders and the coach. For those looking to ride “solo,” just bring along a pair of earbuds, and allow yourself to have the ride unfold before you while you go into your own mind.
Our classes are open to all athletes across the Chicagoland triathlon and cycling communities, not just those that are members of ET. All ability levels are welcome!
Instant feedback on a rider’s effort allows one to adjust their pedal stroke mechanics and muscular engagement to make the most of their training. Seeing the data of other riders gives the extra added incentive to never give up, and keep pushing harder. No matter a cyclist’s riding ability, this program WILL help them improve their cycling fitness while becoming more mindful of their pedaling efficiency.
Short Ride Classes: These intensity interval workouts will last 60 minutes in length, and will focus on training an athlete’s engine, from anaerobic intervals to VO2max work, to Functional Threshold stabilization. Plenty of recovery time will be incorporated into these workouts to allow for the best workout possible.
Long Ride Classes: These classes are 2 hours of riding various courses from around the world. There will be a mix of flatter courses with specific energy system focuses, along with plenty of hilly course rides, including the local favorite of Ironman Wisconsin, for riders to practice riding with instant performance feedback and the company of others to motivate and push themselves.
Once a ride is done, enjoy some stretch and relaxation time in ET’s Stretch and Rest lounge, complete with foam rollers, yoga mats, and coffee!

Is Masters only for Advanced swimmers?
Actually, the word Masters does not have anything to do with your level of swimming. It’s a term that USA Swimming uses to describe “adult” swimmers vs “youth” swimmers. Our program is filled with intermediate and advanced swimmers of all speeds, abilities, experience levels. If you can swim laps freestyle in the pool and do at least a total of 1000 yards with many rest stops over the hour-long session, you’ll be fine. If you’re still learning to swim and struggle to get across the pool for a lap or two, our Swim 101 Learn to Swim or private lessons are the way to go.

$92.00Experience Triathlon is excited to announce a four week session of our weekday short course rides. A weekly indoor, computer-controlled, high-intensity interval ride is the best way to keep your FTP and speed levels up as we get into the outdoor ride and race season. As the spring weather improves, often athletes will only ride outside at lower power levels, slowly losing their speed and FTP power levels that were developed over the winter off-season indoor cycling season.
These intensity interval workouts will last in duration from 60-70 minutes in length and will focus on training an athlete’s engine, from anaerobic intervals to VO2max work, to Functional Threshold stabilization. Plenty of recovery time will be incorporated into these workouts to allow for the best workout possible.

The outdoor riding season is almost here. Are you ready to change a flat? Do you have all the right supplies & tools?
Join us at Spokes Wheaton for a tire changing clinic with ET head coach, Joe LoPresto. You can even bring your own bike and practice!
“The information from the tire change clinic paid off for me very soon after the session. I had the dreaded double flat on a ride. Prior to the clinic, my ride would have been done. I was carrying only 1 tube and had the repair tools, but didn’t know how to use them. After seeing the demonstration I had the confidence to tackle fixing the flats and I had begun carrying 2 tubes! The flats got changed and I was able to finish my ride! The information Coach Joe presents is immediately useful. I highly recommend everyone attend this clinic!” – Eric R.
This clinic is free to ET coached athletes and ET Club members. Not a member? Sign up for ET Club today HERE.
