How to mix Weighlifting with High Intensity Cycling?

[@unknownKnownunknowns]

Prefer to do the weigjts same day as high intensity with 4-8 hours in between. Ride AM, lift PM.

Probably one of the most helpful videos for me. I've been wondering how to incorporate my weight training into my program as VO2 intervals are happening more often. This definitely confirms the parameters I've been working in.

Nice one Joshua, thanks for sharing on the thread.

totally agree with this comment :) Thank you for your effort and for these videos!

Super helpful video! It’s good to know that what’s said here pretty much lines up with what one of Pogacar’s coaches said in a podcast interview with Peter Attia.

[@Eirikkinserdal]

What coach? I would like to hear it 🤔

You can go gym...soft recovery the next day...off...interval training...off....gym....repeat the cycle...and throw in an extra recovery or endurance training day every so often in here as well

[@kamilklosinski5990]

I like my gym workout the day after my endurance ride

[@michaelhoult9]

Love your videos!!!

[@terrillford7784]

I have the best gym days right after doing endurance rides. Those high interval days are a no-go for the gym. However, I do enjoy a heavy lifting day once a week

great stuff Cam

Well, he just killed my push/pull weight schedule… lol… although he doesn’t recommend weight workouts the day before, or the morning of a high intensity bike workout - he did say after was ok… but I think I read/heard somewhere as long as they’re several hours in between a morning weight workout and a later bike workout, you’ll be ok… this is some great stuff here, but the science is a little confusing… hope you have him on again for some more discussion(s)… 🍻

usually 6 hours is minimum between sessions, separate days is better. Recovery/Nutrition is very important if you are planning these. Dr Andy Galpin is the key person to listen to if you want to find more details around this.

@@jfreck Thank you Jason… does he have a podcast, website, etc??

I'm organising a study that involves unilateral lightweight leg balance training vs control group for motor unit recruitment adaptation. The theory is that doing the balancing work on like a large gym balance ball may actually not be for grannies after all.

[@roadcyclingacademy]

Interesting to hear and thanks for sharing on the thread.

[@MikeWick718]

What about getting on the trainer and sticking to 30-60 mins of Zone1 or Zone2 pedaling as a warm-up before the weight lifting? In the past I have found it as a dual benefit of getting great blood flow and muscular activation as a warm-up prior to squatting or deadlifting, as well as getting extra zone2 mileage for my Base training. Thoughts?

[@unknownKnownunknowns]

Im curious to know this as well

[@marcosamigos]

I do Ronnestad's 13x30/15's intervals early in the morning and trap bar deadlifts in the evening of the same day for 4x3 reps at 90% of 1rm. Is the order correct?

[@chrlsgonzyyy]

What workouts do you recommend for ligt gym day?

[@donwinston]

Aches and pains means you're alive. Push the frigging pedals.
