oops, the kilo is shorter than i realized at Rory's level.
a former usa nat'l and olympian, he set the World and USA Kilo at one min. and a little change. stood for about ten years. in '98 he did a 1:14 kilo as a 40-44 age group. still held onto a USA record in '99,
a sub-29 sec 500m set in the 35+ age group.
he was known for squatting. 500 lb.
anyway on the subject of kilo specific weight lifting, would it not make sense to train with quad specific weight training for road since the kilo is such a crucial element in terms of practical use in making breaks, lappin the field, positioning when it counts, and final sprint performance?
i know when one is in kilo-mode the above factors are contested effectively.
