i would like to improve strength and stamina in my legs, although i can achieve and obtain 30mph on a flat road, and 50mph on a slight incline, as part of my training i do lots of hill climbs and spend lots of time sprinting. i ahve attempted to incorporate spinning into my schedule, this i find burns my legs and calves but am not sure weather or not this is a good thing.
i enjoy cycling, but don't want to have to do weights to be able to ride in shorts, i get fun made of me the fact that my legs are thin. i am of only small build and would like to beable to wear shorts without being made fun of.
what ways can i build muscle mass whilst improving my stamina whilst cycling. I would never consider using perfornance enhancing substances, steroids etc.
i find that my legs calfs don't grow in size but they do improve in strength i cycle everyday so they don't really get a chance to recover plus i am on my feet all the time. cycling is my chosen mode of transport i hate cars.
Thanks
