caught the end of a conversation a couple weekend warriors were having on a recent ride. the were talking about upperbody weight training.
one guy had a nice plan, but the other guy blew my mind.. just hearing why he dosent want to do any lifting blew me away.
in a nutshell, he isnt using any of his daily energy up for weights when all that energy can be going to the bike training.
unreal...
guys a cat 4 the past 4-5 years. 45 years old. works 8 hours a day. first thing i thought is where's the balance in his body. all leg training(riding) and wont lift a few times a week.
just curious to what everyoine does as far as weigt training or any kind of exercises.i dont know at all, but i imagine 99% of us on this board are guys that train when we can and race when we can, but do have familys and jobs, so having a balanced body seems to be only normal..plus what real man wouldnt be embarassed as hell if he cant get down right nowand do 50 pushups or a dozen pullups..
curious as to what everyone does to stay strong and fit.
thanks
