Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your message. There is not, there was not and there won't be such disadvantage for any non-Bkool trainers, that's all we can say about that thread. It is just not true.

See you at Bkool,

Bkool Team.

Short and to the point.
If Team Bkool entered a pro ride the likes of team SKY would have no chance considering Bkool riders w/kg. The Pros may as well give up... bring on the over 40's...

Watch my post from 19:34 Yesterday, and tell me again, there's no difference between brands. Apparently only within the Bkool brand then...

What can we say that hasn't already been said... clowns, complete clowns. I can only assume they've been watching Donald Trump's press conferences for inspiration.

Alternative facts... actually I've no idea on the true position but I think I side with you guys.

Is that the whole reply, was there not another couple of paragraphs noting how they had extensively tested other trainers which resulted in very similar data curves over the same course and that the course was chosen for its variety in terrain etc etc.

Just a thought, has anyone contaced the director of BKOOL directly with all the concerns.
There is some useful company contacts on the linkedin website and it also shows a English employee that works for them in Madrid.

They must have to write a reply like that

That's great going @Soarerv8 I bet you feel a lot better for it. Its great to be able to get the heart rate up without fear of too many problems although I find that if I lose too much weight too quickly it can affect my muscle strength so I'm holding back this week. Also, my weight loss is going in stages, which is probably me getting a thirst for beer and being weak willed!
2kg a week is quite a lot to lose - I have aimed for 1kg when dieting which still allows me to be naughty on the weekend! I even had some crackling with my roast last night (that sounds slightly wrong as it was from a fellow )

Nope just feel hungry........

Plan is to go at it fairly hard for a few weeks then back off a bit and I think 1kg a week is a very sensible target.

I have the benefit (?????) Of working I healthcare so can keep a measured eye on the effect it is having on my body. Already had an effect on my blood sugar which was a little high but not up into pre-diabetic levels. Suspect though that if I hadn't done something that is where I would have ended up.
