This technique focuses on performing specific strength exercises for the legs, allowing for greater pedaling effectiveness. Strength training is a cycling training technique that focuses on improving leg muscle strength to allow for greater power and pedaling efficiency.

Cycling strength training is based on the principle that greater muscle development in the legs translates into an increased ability to pedal with power and efficiency, which can result in improved performance in races and competitions.

Strength training for cyclists can include resistance exercises, weight lifting, free weight training, and other leg-specific exercises such as squats, leg extensions, lunges and jumps. In addition, cycling strength training can also include speed and technique training to improve pedaling skills and bike control.

Benefits of cycling strength training include increased muscle development and endurance, improved ability to pedal on climbs and difficult terrain, increased pedaling efficiency and reduced risk of leg injury.

The Postgraduate Certificate in Cycling Strength Training focuses on providing advanced and specialized training in the design, implementation and evaluation of strength training programs specific to cyclists, and sport science in general. Upon completion of this virtual academic program, students will be prepared to design and execute effective, cyclist-specific strength training programs, as well as apply the latest principles and innovations in sport science to improve cyclist performance.
