Training Advice

So is that your way out of never having to prove your boast that after just six weeks of track specific training you could beat me in a sprint omnium.........

shame was looking forward to it.

It was an indisputable hypothetical fact, based on absolutely watertight speculation.

All the other waffle about training was fictional - I'm a forum-only persona, although I do allow some alabaster skinned ageing hipster to use my nom de plume at public events, for a small fee. He's quite handy, and clearly has some raw talent, but there's no way he'd beat me up hills or in short explosive sprints, despite my refusal to train - EVER - based on the fact that I'm a Renaissance man with a passion for gastronomy, cinematography, metaphorical language, Celtic distillation processes, and making tapestries depicting classic scenes from cycling's golden age (the 1980s, obviously).

If I ever were to train, it goes without saying that my self-applied methodologies would quickly grab the attention of the Joe Friels and Chris Carmichaels (and Lee Poveys) of the sports science community, and be employed by all of them forever more thereafter, and with the royalties I'd open an organic cheesecake and single malt emporium.

But you're a good lad - you'll do well if you spend more time applying yourself, and less time goading cyber-caricatures. I'll happily give you a reference once you've got yourself sorted out :)
