So, what are people's thoughts on gym/weights vs on bike work (i.e., low cadence stuff) for building leg strength?
I do some gym sessions for core and legs but only 1 or 2 times a week and so don't know if that's frequent enough to get the gains? It does make my legs feel in tatters though which suggests something good is coming of it. Knackers my riding the next day a bit though....:-/
My recent training has lead to a pleasing increase in cadence, but i feel like my already scrawny legs are losing strength by the day!
