Crosstraining

Here is an interesting bit of information on crosstraining from a newsletter I receive from CTS. Chris Carmichael is one of the premier trainers in the US and he has some great tips that he’s willing to share with the masses, either in Bicycling Magazine or through the emails.

I’m sure that many of you are like me and “it’s all about the bike”. But sometimes we need to do a bit of crosstraining to be more effective on the bike. And now that I’m back in the gym I vow to work on the crosstraining a bit more and take advantage of the classes and equipment the gym has to offer.

So I hope you all take advantage of the off season to get back on your feet, so to speak, and try some other forms of exercise. And if any of you find yourself at spin class with us on Monday nights and can spare an extra hour after, feel free to join us for Yoga class. It really is a good way to stretch after the grueling 45-minutes on the bike!

We participate at Lifestyles in Porltand for Monday night spin. The class starts at 5:15 and ends at 6pm. Yoga is directly after that at 6:05 for an hour. Hope you can join us!
