Off Season Training Advice
This year I've seen a lot of improvement in my riding. I am riding faster and am climbing a little better. I lost 10 pounds of fat and gained some leg strength during the Spring. Now that the days are getting shorter so have my rides. I plan on riding all winter since the winters here are mild. I have a trainer but can't seem to force myself to use it. I don't want to lose what I have gained this past year...what should I focus on for the next few months? I want to increase my strength-to-weight ratio but don't know if I should try focusing on losing weight (fat) or do strength training, or both. Doing both would be a challenge. I'll probably ride about 3 days a week. I'm a heavy rider and need to lose about 30 pounds. What do you think?
