SRM TRAINING SYSTEM

SRM - Schoberer Rad Messtechnik - was founded by engineer Ulrich Schoberer in 1986. Prior to this the qualified medical engineer had spent many years thinking up and experimenting with ways to measure an athlete's power output on the pedals under real conditions during an actual ride. Up until the eighties, no adequate method had been found to measure performance on a bike in training or racing, you still had to rely on lab testing instead. This meant that athletes were forced to go back and fo... rth between their real performance - cycling on the road or cross country - and the ergometer in the lab. With lab testing, they still couldn't tell how their performance had changed over a period of a few hours, either in a race or in training. Lab testing was an intermittent check-up, at best, but couldn't tell athletes anything about how they were performing day-to-day. And the most important performance - during competition - couldn't be tested.
