I’ve done a few bike rides now since trying to focus more on my fuelling and in my 2 hour zone 2 training rides this has definitely shown and made me feel the most improvements. I have been doing most my rides indoors so having the fuel on hand is much more accessible so when I move outdoors I will need to keep up the fuelling intake to the same level.

Doing repeated short bouts of exercise at very high intensity develops several physiological systems in the body. Predominantly it provides a great training stimulus for the neuromuscular system. Although not specific to endurance events, training the neuromuscular system can bring on your fitness very quickly and is still a massive benefit for endurance athletes especially early in the season or if you are unfit. This workout can be done by beginners or experienced cyclists alike because a max sprint is all about your level of effort and is likely to be different from another rider.

Running in hills develops leg strength as well as the strength of the tendons and ligaments around the knee and ankle. Developing leg strength is important, as it makes for a more powerful contraction of the leg muscles to propel you forward faster. Including hills regularly, particularly early in your build-up will see great dividends in the improvement of your running. This workout is great to include early in your build-up to develop leg strength.

When it comes to training for me at first I thought of it as always just wanting to be the best and keep getting better quickly, now not saying I still wouldn’t want that but over the time I have trained I have grown a larger perspective of why I train for what I do.
