Wind Trainer: Easier or Harder?

Hi Gang!
Happy New Year!

I’ve been using a Cycle Ops wind trainer for a few months now and I’ve noticed that my speeds and times have been a lot slower than what I usually clock on the road… Am I out of shape or is a wind trainer generally harder than riding on the road? Thanks

I think it is, but I have no proof. It just feels like it.

If you are on a trainer and it feels hard, one of your boys may have left a rubber band on the roller
