      SERIOUS QUESTION ABOUT STRENGTH TRAINING

      SERIOUS QUESTION ABOUT STRENGTH TRAINING

      THE COUNTLESS WAYS to get strong off the bike are multiplying like rabbits. We all wanna get results, but lately the infoolencers have...

      ... shamelessly launched into ludicrousland.

      Like this cat.

      Planking on his toes,
      fully kitted up...

      ... while sliding a kettlebell back and forth?!

      lols

      I'm mean, there I was coolin' down after an amazing strength sesh (below), sucking my last swig of sugar water...

      ... spit it all out and dropped the water bottle.

      First off...

      ... who lifts in their kit,
      with socks?!

      Second off...

      ... can you get any further from rwr?

      That's real world racing...

      ... you know, what we're axyalee aimin' tdo.

      So, let's dive into my diabolical method...

      • get on the bike
      • sprint all out for 10 seconds
      • recover like a sloth between efforts

      ... to get, faster, stronger, better.

      That, my fine lycra'd friend will get us...

      • recruiting muscles we need
      • toughen our tendons
      • increase balance

      ... prepared for real world racing.

      Sprinting all out can be awkward...

      • spinning like mad
      • pulling and pushing the bars
      • fully connected core and back

      ... we have to put it all together.

      We need more time doing that,
      not less.

      For some,
      that's too simple.

      For others,
      it hurts too much.

      For us, me and you,
      it sounds like heaven.

      Because it is.

      We are lit for the rest of the day with...

      ... a huge post workout stoke.
