MagneticDays opens to the used and guaranteed smart trainer. After the many requests received over the past few years, we have decided to inaugurate a new section on our website, completely dedicated to the “regenerated products”: the RETAIL OUTLET. What does it mean? The models (JARVIS or JARVIS Light) are those coming from cycling trade fairs, tests and collaborations. They come with an official certification that will guarantee that the regeneration has been carried out directly in the MD mechanical lab by highly qualified personnel. The price of each product will be variable and oscillate around a thousand euros: “We wanted to give this opportunity to get closer to our world – said CEO MD Marco Sbragi – by providing a range of guaranteed products with the same quality and assistance typical of MagneticDays.”
The new release 3.0.3 of MagneticDays WiFi App is now available for iOS and Android. This update includes the addition of a new category named FREE WORKOUTS, with 10 free indoor cycling workouts for JARVIS smart trainer ( unlimited duration ). In particular:
- 3 Self Calibrate Workouts
- 3 Self Managed Workouts of “Becoming in fit in 3 months” training pack
- 2 Self Managed Workouts of “Agility and Strenght” training pack
- 1 Self Managed Workout “Demo Training HTT”
- 1 Self Managed Workout of “HIIT SPRINT” training pack
Furthermore, is also possible to choose the MD Route modality (Menu –> Training Mode -> MD Route ) and ride the free .tcx and/or .gpx routes directly on JARVIS with the support of VIRTUAL GEAR.
The free workouts are already available for all MD clients. And they will assigned to all new users who will free register on our website.
To break the clouds of a cold London sky at the beginning of November was MagneticDays, which took the occasion of the ROULEUR LIVE event to officially present the new JARVIS CARBON: all the MD technology in only 5 kg. The event, reserved for media and specialized shops, was staged in an “out of show”, parallel to that of “Victoria House” event. The new JARVIS CARBON smart turbo trainer has a carbon monocoque structure and is already available in two versions, glossy and matt.
“The JARVIS is a physiological lab – said MD CEO Marco Sbragi – and it confirms its ability to break the mold of the indoor cycling scene by arriving among the stars with a product that is unique in terms of performance, raw materials and lightness. We are the only ones to have created the lightest indoor training roller in the world, giving an even greater boost to the quality aspect of JARVIS and to our brand that has ‘Made in Tuscany’ as one of its pillars. London seemed to us the most appropriate place to launch the world premiere of JARVIS CARBON, even more so because of the presence of ROULER which hosts in its shop only one turbo trainer: the JARVIS black edition.”
It is now a fact that video content is taking up more and more space in the digital communication of small and large companies alike. The pandemic, of course, played a big role in this, as companies were forced to reorganize ideas and find new ways of working, aiming to find new and interesting contents to offer. During the lockdown, in full boom of requests for trainers and smart trainers, we faced the possibility of keeping in touch with the many users of JARVIS by doing Facebook live training sessions on Sundays, during which one of our Coaches executed a self-managed training together with the virtual company of many “magnetics”, in Italy and abroad.
After this positive experience, we realized that we could do even more. This is how MD LIVE TRAINING was born: the indoor training bike and online entertainment format created by MagneticDays to accompany users and smart trainer enthusiasts during the winter 2020 – spring 2021 season. The forty episodes, which went live on our Facebook page, saw not only many friends of cycling and triathlon training with us, but also great names in Italian sports such as Damiano Cunego, Alessandro Vanotti, Luca Gregorio, Nico Valsesia, Wladimir Belli, Riccardo Magrini, Antonio Rossi and Jury Chechi.
The 2021/2022 indoor season begins with the birth of MD VIDEO TV, the MagneticDays streaming channel where you can find lots of videos (both free and for sale): from indoor training with one of our Coaches to technical content. In this initial phase the first seasons of two formats are already available: MD LIVE TRAINING 2020/2021 and TRAIN WITH THE COACH. The latter collects 8 indoor workouts aimed at all users of trainers and smart trainers, accompanied by MD Coach Massimiliano Sellini who will guide you in the discovery of the HTT methodology, the maximum training customization available on the market today.
It’s the beginning of fall in training and winter cycling training! And MagneticDays has decided to give all JARVIS’ owners a 25% discount on the purchase of one of the self-managed training packages that you can find in our shop. This offer runs through 31 December 2021. The self-managed packages (8, 12, 16 or 24 workouts) fall into the category of MD workouts that each client / athlete can manage entirely independently. Created on the basis of HTT personalized training methodology, each workout is made of a skeleton-structure which will transform the data into Watt, RPM, Newton and HR parameters, based on the threshold values set by the athlete in their personal profile on the App. The threshold values can be obtained by taking one free AUTOTEST in your MD WiFi account, which will determine the actual parameters at any given time.
“From training to get in shape in 2, 3, 4 or 6 months to the specific training for the different distances of triathlon, for the lovers of virtual races on Zwift and for those who simply want to feel better; MagnticDays – says the company in a note – makes personalized workouts one of its cornerstones. This is why we have created many packages, all different, to meet everyone’s needs. And our coaching team is always working to create different types of training for new goals.”
Insert the serial number of your JARVIS smart trainer in the discount code box to obtain the 25%.
The new JARVIS firmware 04.00.C/D36 is available on App section of our website. It improves the compatibility with the most of indoor training platforms supported by the MagneticDays indoor training system (Zwift, BKool, Rouvy AR and FulGaz). Directions are following.
Our indoor smart training system, JARVIS, has never stopped evolving, growing in value and improving its technical and functional peculiarities. Nonetheless, we have not increased the price for 2 years to allow more people to have access to this tool, which does not belong in the traditional category of bike rollers or bike trainers.. it’s a life philosophy!
But raw materials’ prices keep going up, and Italian high manufacturing has its costs. For this reason, we are here to announce that as of Monday, 18th October 2021, the price of the JARVIS will be € 2150 and that of the JARVIS Light will be € 1400. The purchase opportunities are still available, like Smart Rent and Pay Per Use options, because we believe that everyone has to have the possibility to try the HTT training methodology before buying the smart trainer that will change the way they train and their sports life.
For all orders received up to the 17th October 2021, the price will be the current price of € 1990 for JARVIS and € 1250 for JARVIS Light. Another good reason to decide to buy now!
On Sunday May 30th, Colonel Carlo Calcagni established a new track record with FORZA PURA independent bike cranks, approved by the judges of the Italian Athletics Federation, at the Centro Polisportivo in Rivarolo Canavese (Turin). A sporting event that wanted to focus on issues related to sport for the disabled and also aimed at letting people know about the association “PIU ‘GIRI PIU’ VIVI – SPORT FOR ALL” (the more you ride, the more you live) which organized the Giro d’Italia Solidale, a non competitive triathlon race, composed of 47 stages, that allow people with disabilities to participate as athletes.
The story of Colonel Calcagni is inextricably linked to his love for his homeland. At the age of 28, in the mid 1990s, Carlo was already an experienced helicopter pilot of the Italian Army, deployed in the Balkans with the international contingent, under the UN peacekeeping operations. Assigned to the MEDEVAC (medical evacuation) service, he engaged in numerous recovery missions for wounded soldiers and civilians. During the course of these activities, he was exposed to heavy metal nanoparticles formed after the explosion of devastating devices. These heavy metal cells entered his body taking over healthy cells and impacting him both physically and neurologically. “Every day is a fight for life – the Colonel says – that’s why my motto is NEVER GIVE UP”.
The record set this past Sunday in Rivarolo Canavese consisted in one hour of pedaling on his tricycle and the independent FORZA PURA MagneticDays bike cranks – completely independent from the bottom bracket. It was a personal success, and has even more value if we consider the many “hitches” to accomplish it: first of all it was done on the athletics track, which surface is not smooth and therefore not ideal for bikes; then the vehicle, a tricycle, which at high-speed risks overturning at any time; and finally the completely unlocked FORZA PURA independent bike cranks which require a significant muscle work, expecially protracted for 60 minutes. To monitor the test and analyze the data was XSEOS “Technological Innovation” TEAM of Brescia led by Franco Boldi, a leading software company in the financial and health sector, that for over two years has developed a non-invasive system able to observe vital parameters of people, with the aim of improving their quality of life from all points of view.
“It was not a struggle but a moment of absolute freedom – Colonel Carlo Calcagni said immediately after the test – I must also thank MagneticDays for supporting me with the innovative independent FORZA PURA bike cranks, a concentrate of technology capable of involving all muscle groups, significantly improving pedaling efficiency and offering the athlete a totally new way of perceiving pedaling, training muscle strength and, at the same time, mental strength. The peculiarity of FORZA PURA in my specific case, is to normalize my pedaling so that I don’t feel the tremors due to sclerosis and Parkinson’s”.
Carlo Calcagni’s tricycle was also equipped with the brand new “Tannus Airless” tires from Tannus Italia: airless bicycle tires that guarantee performance comparable to that of traditional tires. The innovative Aither 1.1 compound allows having a 100% puncture-proof bike tire without sacrificing performance and comfort. The President of the Piedmont Region, Alberto Cirio, personally congratulated the great champion, inviting the Colonel to return to Turin as soon as possible to set a new record and promote a further message of strength, courage and hope for all people living with difficulties.
Jacek Berruti is one of those people with cycling in his blood. A true heroic cyclist. He had a good teacher, his father, Luciano, who gave him courage, foresight, goodness and an unbridled passion for the essence of cycling: a way to have fun and create harmony between people. This is why, on his birthday, we share a little story he wrote just before the beginning of spring. A reflection linked to an experience in which anybody could find themselves, with their human limits, but with the desire to always get better. Because cycling – whether it is for training, competition or any situation linked to healthy competition – is, above all, the desire to try again, to enjoy a magical moment that only a frame and two wheels can give you. Happy reading and.. happy birthday Jacek!
“This happens weekly: as I leave work, my main thought is to get home to get moving. To unplug and recharge the batteries. It is evening, it is dark outside. I spent eleven hours away from home, and now I’m looking for a challenge that can really make me feel alive: so I turn to that multicolored tool that is the MagneticDays Jarvis smart trainer. Ready, set, go: cream on the saddle, towel, sweatband and the right playlist, let’s go. Intensity training, I feel it immediately: my heartbeats are high; my breath becomes a little short already during warm-up. Minutes go by, the going gets tough, too much. At minute 25 the AC/DC ‘screaming’ in my ears are not enough to keep me going. Not even the photo of my dad in front of me; I don’t want to, but I know that sometimes insisting can cause harm: so get off, give up and ‘see you tomorrow’ is the only choice. Usually giving up is not an option during my indoor and outdoor workouts. But so it is this time. I get down.
Defeated, I think that perhaps I was too tired to train. Maybe I’d better respect the recovery times: so I will put this behind me and try again tomorrow. The next day comes. Cream, playlist, bla bla bla: minute 23 this time. Can’t do it. I curse, I stop the training, I get down and I wonder why. Can the meal plan I am following to the letter affect my performance? Yes, I have a food plan: I am training less than usual and I try to stay in shape only through what I eat.
I decide to write Luca Bianchini, my MD Coach, a man of infinite experience. I explain what happened. He tells me I’m ‘low on carbohydrates’, and it is normal for my performance to drop: “you have to decide what your goals are”. So I pass the ball to the nutritionist, who patiently explains to me in detail the wellness and health goals we had set. Mind you: I said well-being and health, not performance or results, I leave those to somebody else. And, if I do reach them, it will only be an indirect benefit.
I return to Luca, who resets my workouts with a lower intensity percentage, and who assures me that soon, with little careful changes in my nutrition, I could have nice surprises. And I sure did! You never stop learning: this is yet another demonstration. I had put together a micro cosmos of sport-health-wellness that opened new horizons for me. The added value is having a coach who can personalize and constantly readjust the training to best suit my needs and goals. I’m being a “guinea pig” for myself and I like it, I enjoy it.
I have the right tools, I have the right people around me and I am very, very lucky. For the record: with the new settings I finished the training as expected. The sweatband was back on, the playlist was “right” again and my “ego” gave a big sigh of relief, which is a reminder that every now and then, feeling at peace with yourself matters the most”.
