I am a long time user of Trainer Road, using a library of custom workouts that a coach designed for me when I was cycling competitively. I use an old set of Inside Ride e-motion rollers upgraded with “smart” control and the flex fork stand.
My reasons for switching from Trainer Road is that recent updates have made the platform unbearable slow. This seems like “enshittification” to me. Also, the Trainer Road subscription cost has become quite significant. The app seems to have many features that I do not need.
I was initially concerned about the ability to use Trainer Day because it does not have Ant+ support, but have found a solution in using a North Pole Engineering “Cable” Ant+ Bluetooth BLE Adapter.
After first testing the system with Erg mode, I completed my first full Trainer Day session today. The custom ride creation is quite easy and has a nice interface. The IOS app worked flawlessly for me and controlled the trainer with acceptable precision. I really like the way Trainer Day works and I will be buying an annual subscription. Please keep up the good work. I know that you have an AI training plan option, but I hope that you stay away from complete “enshittification”! ![]()
