Strength training for cycling is essential. In addition to cycling, you should undertake upper body and leg training for cyclists. Train the muscles needed for cycling and focus on the muscle groups that easily get neglected by cyclists. Having a strong torso is just as important as strong leg and gluteal muscles. Core training for cyclists stabilises the torso and ensures optimum power transfer between the upper and lower extremities.
