OK---this is for all of you who race on teams or train all year long:
I don't want to lose all my hard work I've put into building my base miles and getting my legs and heart into great shape for racing in the Spring. So, I have a few questions about working out in the Winter:
1) What ratio of weight/resistance training to aerobic training do you recommend?
2) What type of indoor trainer is best for spinning: fluid or magnetic?
3) Which activities work the muscles most needed for cycling: running on a treadmill, swimming, step-aerobics, (fill in the blank)?
That's all I can think of to ask.........if you guys know of other things to be working on, please share!
