Podcast: Weight Lifting for Cycling
Frank Overton
Weight Lifting this winter will make you faster! More strength = more power = higher FTP = riding our bikes faster. However this is not your high school weight lifting plan; its designed for cyclists! “Speeds specific to cycling” is the secret sauce of this program: the velocity of the lifts plus the neuromuscular sprint workouts that are coupled to the Strength and Power Phases make this 10 week plan effective for endurance cyclists." On this week's podcast, we break down all you need to know about incorporating a cycling-specific resistance training program into your offseason.
