in 20+ years of reading magazines, watching videos, watching races on tv, i only 1 time heard of what pros do for training, and the one time i read it....it was in a cycle sport magazine a few years back . palo bettini said he does 30 second intervals with a 30 second ez spin between. and this article didnt even say how many, how fast, gearing, power output , what time of the year he did these etc..etc. i know they race alot, but anyone know how these guys train before they start racing? when you read books by a former pro, and ric stern, they tell you to do 20 minute intervals and 4 minute intervals, but i bet they are directiing this info for us workers that like to ride and race, not a pro that only race.. anyone know what these guys do for training in their off season buildup, closer to the season starting, and during the season?? some of the commentating watching live races, they say so and so isnt quite fit enough, he will be super fit in a month.. well, whats he doing for training? other than racing, i have never heard of what pros do on a weekly traing plan..i think i heard mario cioppolini motor paced, but what time of year? how far? how fast? never hear anything on a pros detailed training plans. i seen on youtube a rider training, but its a weekend warrior. not a pro training....
