1,000 situps and 1,000 back extensions per week -- break them into twice
daily sessions.

I started the strength training thread as an innocent question..didnt
realize it would take on a life of its own. For the past 3 days ive sat
back and listened to what the experts had to say. Ive learned alot and
realize the importance of specificity in training.
Forgive me for asking two last questions.
I understand that the consensus seems to indicate that strength training
will not improve endurance cycling.
Are there any other good reasons to incorporate strength training into
an off season training plan?
We know that Off season Strength Training will not help Endurance
cycling but will it hurt? While the short term effects of Strength
training will act to impede performace is it detrimental long term to
cycling performance (other than to delay the return to baseline CPs)?
Thank you.
