I am curious what everyone is doing during the winter months to strengthen the body for the coming cycling season.
Today I worked on my core. I went straight from the "Weight Training for Cyclist" book by Ken Doyle and Eric Schmitz. I also used my Christmas gift from several years ago, Leg Magic. It feels good to work in the opposite plain of motion as cycling some times. Did full body SMFR and a yoga/stretching session topped off by roller work watching my favorite race in July.
If I can do this 3 times a week and add in some swimming, running and gym work I hope I can win a race or two this year.
