Join the Ask a Cycling Coach Podcast as they analyze a 2024 study by Sitko and colleagues on how incorporating strength and core training with cycling can significantly boost power output. Hosts Coach Jonathan Lee and Sarah Laverty discuss the distinct impacts of strength training, core training, and just cycling during the off-season. The study involved 36 well-trained cyclists divided into three groups, each following different training protocols over 12 weeks. Key topics include the effects on power profiles, VO2 max, and body composition. Learn how strength training can help you maintain and even improve fitness during base training.
