The Best Indoor Cycling Apps: Which Training App Should

Indoor

1. Racing, training or touring? While most indoor cycling apps serve a similar purpose – to make indoor training more enjoyable and effective – they can broadly be split into a few categories depending on what you want from the experience, including intervals, racing and interactive tourism.
2. The best indoor cycling apps. Zwift has established itself as the go-to training app but there are plenty of alternatives if you want to mix-up your indoor cycling experience.
3. Zwift. Founded by gamers with a love of cycling (and clearly some good investment backing), Zwift has undoubtedly transformed the indoor riding experience.
4. TrainerRoad. Riding a trainer aimlessly, staring at the wall is about as fun as a waiting room at the dentist’s office with no WiFi. On top of that, riding aimlessly isn’t really doing anything for your fitness if you really want to make the most of your time on the turbo.
5. The Sufferfest. Somewhere in between TrainerRoad’s straight-faced workouts and Zwift’s virtual-reality interactivity lies The Sufferfest. The brand started with pro-race videos, back before apps were a thing.
6. RGT Cycling. RGT Cycling (which stands for Road Grand Tours Cycling) is a competitor to Zwift, except it offers virtual riding on real roads.
7. More indoor cycling training apps. There are scores of indoor training apps out there, including quite few produced by brands to accompany smart trainers.
8. Rouvy. Rouvy offers a mix of virtual riding and interval training. The company has recently added augmented reality riding that allows you to race your friends, similar to Zwift, but instead of a fully animated world, the app adds avatars, road signs and finish banners to real-life footage.
9. Bkool. The Spanish trainer brand’s virtual world comprises thousands of courses and offers similar social and racing features to Zwift. There are also outdoor courses with real-world footage, as well as the option for targeted interval training.
10. Kinomap. With more than 200,000km of video courses from around the world, Kinomap has added new functionality that changes the resistance on your smart trainer based on the terrain in the video.
