nice article
As a competitive cyclist I turned to body building techniques to build leg muscle and power. I have found through years of training that I had my best results by training nearly the same as this article. I lift upper body only on tuesday, thurs and saturday while riding on mon, wed and friday. I eat less then recommended here and lift always for reps 8-10 allowing weight to increase with ability.
My cycling workouts on mondays and fridays hover near or above v02 max (164 bpm) but I interval doing 5 hard mins and 5 easy minutes for one hour(plus wu and cd) the goal being to increase my total power at vo2 max. Wednesdays I again do intervals but work 20 min intervals at rates slightly harder than I can maintain for an hour..
I found the nutritional portions of this article very beneificial and intend to bring some of the suplimation and mrp info into my routine.
