Always one to just jump on his bike and go, we sat Blake Samson down and told him to get some more structure to his rides. Enter Garmin, ever ready with workout suggestions personally tailored to you, we suggested that Blake follow the suggestions on his Smart Watch and Bike Computer for a while... always one to take things to extremes, he followed them to the letter for 6 whole weeks! Let's find out how he got on.

Thanks to Garmin, Blake gained 8 whole watts in just 6 weeks, and if it wasn't for having to present videos and other such nuisances getting in his way he thinks he would have gained a whole lot more! Have you thought about following your Garmin's advice? You'll definitely reap the benefits of your own, wrist or bar mounted personal trainer!
