Cycling Training
What can I do for additional cycling training?
I started cycling a few months ago and I’m really getting into it. I’m considering joining a club soon and begin racing.
I was wondering what additional training I can do to improve?
Swimming?
Weights?
Gym work?
etc
Any advice on what I can do to improve. Thanks 
Monty
The best cycling training you can do, is training on your bike. You should be doing intervals, I particularly like doing intervals on hills. Rid up the long steep hill, turnaround and coast down, and back up… several times. If you want to do some cross training you want something almost equally demanding as cycling. Running. treadmill, elliptical would be my cardio choices. For a game, basketball. I would not spend a lot of time in the gym doing weights. Look at the tour riders… they do not sport football legs, or lifters ‘guns’. Their tome is spent on the bikes…

Cycle of Hope: My Journey from Paralysis to Possibility $19.95 Strength. Courage. Perseverance.At thirty-one, Tricia Downing was in the best shape of her life. In the summer of 2000, Tricia, an avid cyclist, drove across the country for what amounted to eighteen races in twenty-three days. She returned from her adventure to a fresh start: a new job awaited her, and, determined to make the next summer the year she would make her mark on the world of cycling, she began a rigorous training strategy. But on September 17, 2000, Tricia Downing’s life took a detour. While training on her bicycle one sunny Colorado afternoon, Tricia collides with a car that turns directly in her path, and instantly becomes paralyzed from the chest down. As a competitive road and track cyclist and lifelong athlete, losing the use of her legs is devastating on all accounts. As she re-learns to do everything from sitting straight up to navigating through her house in a wheelchair to returning to work and operating a handcycle, her grueling recovery takes her to the very core of her athletic mettle. This inner strength helps her to not only learn how to live life as a paraplegic-a label that takes time to grow accustomed to-but to have the courage to return to the competitive sport she loves and almost lost. Determined to live life on her terms, Tricia turns her misfortune into opportunity, and is now a wheelchair racer, competing regularly in triathlons around the globe. Cycle of Hope chronicles Tricia’s journey from the first terrifying moments of impact with the car through rehab and her emergence as a world-class athlete. |
