During lunchtime at work Im fortunate to have a weight room, showers, lockers & trails just outside the door, so the past few years Ive been on this schedule:
Upper body weight lifting for 35 minutes followed by sit-ups for 25min, Monday, Wednesday & Friday.
Steep uphill climbing for 45 minutes & fast fireroad DH back down for 15, Tuesday & Thursday.
3 or 4 hour Mtb ride Sat or Sun.
While the first two years Id noticed strength improvement & faster climbing, but the past 6 months or so I havent felt any improvements. I tired increasing the weights, or decreasing the weight & more reps.
So maybe its the workout itself? I know theres all kinds of different arm/back/shoulder/etc workouts, but Ive settled into the ones that I feel help me the most.
Any ideas?
