Strength training can be a complicated box to open for most endurance athletes. However, as a very general set of guidelines if you are a beginner lifter, don’t go as heavy, and focus on nailing the bio mechanics of the moments. Even consider getting a local strength coach to work with if it’s in the cards. You’ll get amazing results that way. For those with more lifting experienced and more advanced movement patterns, the 4-6 rep range can be extremely effective when we look at cross over to on bike ability. Just to be clear. In our coaching practice, lifting age is not the only thing that we consider. I’ve ran into my fair share of 40 year + lifters, with really poor lifting technique. So a motion screen becomes an essential part of understanding where someone is at. That honest internal discussion with your lifting ability will also help you find your place to progress from a bit easier. Hope this helps. Make sure you stay tuned as I’ll be answering more and more questions from this months ask me anything post here in this format. #TeamEFCoaching #Cycling #CyclingTips
