Did you know that strength training can help improve cycling performance and prevent injury? These seven exercises will help you avoid discomfort, pedal faster, and feel stronger in the saddle.

▪️The Bulgarian Split Squat challenges the glutes, quads, and core to help improve your power output during cycling.
▪️Deadlifts increase power and strength in the posterior chain, which is vital for speed and endurance.
▪️Triceps Extensions help to reduce triceps fatigue on long rides.
▪️Step-ups basically mimic the push your legs make with every pedal stroke.
▪️Suitcase Deadlifts develop the strength of each leg separately and force you to use your core and stabilize the trunk. 
▪️Resisted Lateral Lunges strengthen the outer hips while developing power and building a stronger, more stable core.
▪️Resisted Bird Dogs improve your core, shoulders, and back, which can lead to more comfortable rides.
