Take training seriously and view high performance as a lifestyle. It doesn’t take hours spent every day in the gym or on the bike – it just takes proper targeting, meaning focusing on the most impactful elements.

Implement micro-dosing – a strategy used by top professionals to make sure you stay race-ready all the time. Using small, focused sessions, you maximize the benefits of training in the shortest amount of time possible. This means performing several small, time-efficient sessions regularly throughout the week, and weaving these into your daily schedule of work, family, or school.

Focus on these key factors:

Sprint-Style Training (and reserving endurance work for when it matters)

Strength Training

Proper Nutrition (focused on growth and recovery)

Low-Intensity Aerobic Conditioning (designed to shed fat, promote physical restoration, and catalyze mental wellbeing)

Remember that force is one of the main components of power production (the other being velocity). Both peak force and postural integrity are best developed in the gym, as the tools are available to remodel tissue more effectively than cycling alone to create a significant, lasting improvement in performance.
