Ste_S - if you just want to improve your cycling, then Yes. But use high cadence too!
There are a lot of Sketchy trainers out there mate - and weight training needs to be personally adjusted to your current training levels, with progressional planning.
If you think you're lacking in power, or sprint endurance - then using some resistance will help you raise your lactic threshold, allowing you to work harder for longer...
I have a proper (I say proper, more like something I cobbled together) training plan that includes max cadence intervals.
I've not done gym work before, and wondered if seated climbs in a high gear would replace some gym work for building leg strength ?
I wonder how long the RST forum search bots will take to find this thread ?
