Any tips how to gain resistance on turbo rollers? I know the trick about using magnets but my rollers are Tacx Antares (means plastic not alu). Due to the global lockdown I'm stick only to the rollers and I would really want to do some watts on them.

Tips found randomly:
- magnets (don't work with plastic rollers)
- towel under rollers (too much heat for plastic rollers)
- second belt between front and read rollers (any ideas what material to use to making it slower?)
- super slow tyre with low pressure (should give some watts but not much)
btw. the super slow tyre is only necessary for the rear wheel, right?

Any better options? I would really appreciate!
