Cycling programmes & You

Cyclying Programmes vary vastly between a beginner’s needs and that of an elite rider and every level in-between. The main reason is the individuals ability and their length of time in years cycling. All good bike racers have two things in common. They all spend a lot of time on their bikes training and have talen & ability mainly through genetics ie. a low heart rate and a low body fat level.  

So armed with above information, a level headed approach to designing a cycling programme can be of great benefit in getting to next level performance wheather a weekend warrior or a top amateur rider.  

STRENGTH

Steady state riding many km’s in 3/4  hour sessions at a heart rate of between 120-130bpm which is optimal for most riders to enter their fat  burning zone.
This allows capillaries in the legs to open up and improve blood flow which in turn improves cycling performance.

ENDURANCE

Hills and sharp inclines are a great way to increase power when rode at interval stages.
Interval training on hills improves VO2 max capacity however slightly but always welcome.
