Cycling
What
type of cyclist are you? If you are a combination power or
middle distance cyclist your energy comes form the immediate
and glycolytic energy systems. If you are a distance cyclist
you need to focus the training and eating for your oxidative
needs. No matter what type of cyclist you are adhering to
all phases of the sport is essential to success. All great
cyclists need to be able to break away from the pack, climb
hills, and print to the Finnish line. Your training both on
and off the bicycle should devevel0p strength, anaerobic or
aerobic endurance and speed strength. The program below will
enhance each of these qualities. The stronger athlete is usually
a better athlete. By supplementing your time on the bike with
a sound and effective strength training program will help
increase your short-burst cycling power and prevent injuries.
Note:
Cycling can lead to unbalanced muscular development resulting
in excessive forward head posture and flatten lumbar region.
To maintain muscular balance, keep in mind the amount of work
by the dominant hand/side Vs the non-dominate hand/side. These
unbalances can lead to overcompensation of the lumbar, thoracic
and cervical spines. By following a sound flexibility program
and effective abdominal and low back work should prevent low
back pain.
