There has been a number of threads of late all concerned with training that is compatible with cycling or may enhance one’s cycling ability, ie: core strength, squatting, cycling and weight training.
The point that I would like to raise and the question I pose is:
How many of you out there, recreational and competitive cyclist alike, Cross Train.
Why do you cross train and is it due to an injury or fear of acquiring an injury ?
Or do you believe the training enhances your cycling ability
I know a lot of people run and cycle. Most of the people I know who do this, do this because either :
a) they are triathletes need to compete in two disciplines or
b) they are runners with bad knees who cycle whenever their knees play up.
