Phase IV Lecture Series Presents: Getting Started – Basic Bicycle Training
Cycling is a rewarding lifelong activity which allows us to improve our level of fitness, feel the wind in our face, enjoy the outdoors, explore new places, and develop new friendships. Most of all, cycling is an activity that can radically change your life with improved body composition, reduced health risk factors and increased vitality. If you don’t train right, however, those rewards will not be realized.
Learn the Science used by the pros and successful beginners alike to optimize their cycling performance and capabilities. It’s never too late to update your program and start on the proper path to success and sustained enjoyment of the sport!
This Lecture Will Teach You:
*How to create the cycling program that will keep you healthy and fit for life
*The importance of using bicycle workouts to re-engineer your metabolism and fitness as opposed to
just burning calories
*The importance of heart rate training to build your physiology in a scientifically rational manner
*Why adding climbing and intensity too early in your training will create an artificial ceiling of fitness
*Why determining your hydration and nutrition needs in early training rides is critical
*The value of a good recovery program

*When you need a professional bike fit
