Cargyrl Posted September 4, 2015 Share I joined Cadence to augment my training and to get a little fitter. In 93 days I have increased my VOMax with 18.09%, I am happy. Hopefully there is still quite some room for improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully there is still quite some room for improvement. I have been considering joining Cadence for maybe 6-8weeks. Think its too late now with Shova just around the corner, but will give them a shout and take it from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJP2013 Posted September 4, 2015 Share I have been considering joining Cadence for maybe 6-8weeks. Think its too late now with Shova just around the corner, but will give them a shout and take it from there. The biggest gains happen in the first 8 weeks, after that it tapers off. As long as you supplement with endurance rides there is still enough time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
