MarickH Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Hi everyone I have read a few articles suggesting complimentary exercises to improve riding and fitness. Anyone doing this?
Stretch Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Nothing works better than running. I'm focusing on running this year but can easily do a 40km ride after doing no riding for 3 months
Uni Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I find spinning and pilates had helped quite a bit to make up for lack of actual TITS
BarHugger Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Sleeping is great. About to catch up on some now. Try also leg raises and stairs. Best ever.+1 R,R,R & R......most important part of exercise......rest, recovery, regeneration with a tad ROM (flexibility)......and anything that involves a six-pack (supplementation). Wait for Supercompensation and hit it hard........
HappyMartin Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Not doing ny MTB at the moment. Stuck on road right now. Anyway I do yoga. My girlfriend is an instructor and she has worked out a cycling specific routine for me. Has helped with balance, core, strength and flexibility. A real winner. Have never been so comfortable on a bike.
Bonus Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Spinning in the week, and up and down two flights of stairs about a zillion times a day at work!
BarHugger Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Running and a little bit of kicking ........back with a six-pack.
droenn Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Running has improved my hill climbs back on the bike immensely.
Benjamin Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Swimming. Plus some core exercises at home.
