It all started back in 1992. Twenty two year old Troy Jacobson, a top amateur triathlete and novice multisport coach began offering indoor cycling workouts weekday evenings in Baltimore area bike shops. Rapidly, his reputation grew as a tough coach who knew how to motivate cyclists to higher levels of fitness using creative interval training sessions.
After two years of conducting cycling classes every week then known as CYCLAEROBICS, Troy was approached by the leading indoor cycling trainer manufacturer, Cycle-ops Products. They heard about his program and thought that his workouts would compliment their trainers. In 1995, Cycle-ops hired Troy and several of the top cyclists in the three disciplines, Road Racing, Mountain Biking and Triathlon, to produce a cycling workout video. The World class athletes included Triathletes Greg Welch and Karen Smyers, Cyclists Tyler Hamilton and Ron Kiefel, Mountain biker Laurie Brandt and others. After spending two days filming in beautiful Beaver Creek, Colorado, the first workout video for competitive cyclists, CYCLEROBX was born! Video sales boomed and now tens of thousands of athletes throughout the world have used the original Cyclerobx video to increase their cycling fitness.
After going out on his own and establishing his industry leading online coaching service, Coach Troy started his own video production company, LifeSports, Inc. with the help of investors. In September of 1997, the first SPINERVALS CYCLING VIDEO was released to the public. Sales were brisk since many who had used Troy\'s original Cyclerobx video were ready for a new workout.
These videos DVD's are carried by Cycling mail order companies and specialty bike shops throughout the country! In addition, Spinervals is extending it\'s product line by offering the highest quality fluid trainers on the market to customers and has a related product offering for runners called Runervals ----------- Everest Sports is the Australian supplier of Lifesports Inc.
