How to lift weights to get faster on the bike

The off-season is a great time to do a cycling-focused weightlifting regiment in order to be stronger and faster next year.

Why should cyclists lift weights? How should cyclists lift weights? And how does strength gained in the gym translate to power on the bike?

Frank Overton and Ben Delaney address all these issues and more. Listen to the podcast here on Spotify, or watch the recording of the podcast on YouTube below.
