3 Ways to Train Smarter

3/1/2017

1 Comment

 
Now that the weather is getting warmer and you're getting your bike off the trainer, there are a few tips I use for the start of the outdoor season.

​1. Focus on cadence.  Do not worry about speed or average speed, just enjoy the ride.  Give your legs time to acclimate to outdoor riding again.
​2. Hit the hills.  Don't be afraid  to ride the hills even if you're a little slower then last year at first.  Your legs will adjust to the increased power.  Start with smaller hills and increasingly add bigger climbs.
​3. Patience.  After a long winter of not riding or riding a ton of trainer hours, it's important to be patient with your legs as they acclimate to outdoor riding.  If you did train, you should have a good base.  Once your power catches up it should be a whole new race!
