Only frustration, then pleasure.

We, my wife and I, have the role of coach for about 1 week and at first the negative comments seem (life-threatening, etc.) to come true. But if one pays attention to the small successes and not too hard approach the thing one is from day to day, when at the beginning small, progress notes.
Day 1: 5 minutes, the first attempts. In door frame constructed with stool as a climbing aid. It has been my privilege only for fractions of seconds to keep me upright without support on the frame.
Day 2: 5 minutes, abwohl no further has been done between the two tests, I felt a bit more secure and the fractions of a second without wall contact had already felt an eternity.
Day 3: 10 minutes, of which phases 20 to 30 Sec. without support. The mood rises.
Day 4 15 minutes, only without support, including a huge motivation thrust.
Conclusion: It takes some patience and positive attitude that can not be influenced by initial failures.
Man cycling eventually learns from scratch.
Stay relaxed and not tense up, even if it does not work quite as you imagined.
Maintain speed! Who does not occur is unstable!
On Youtube there are a lot of videos that show how to do it or not to do and what they can can everyone else.
After the free Bicycle Trainers is an unexpected enrichment of yet so boring and stupid winter training.
Incidentally, the age does play a subordinate role: Am 69th
