Mountain Bike Strength Workout Pt. 1

Mountain Bike Strength Workout Pt 1

I’ve been wanting to showcase some of the moves I do to help my mountain biking performance. Besides trying to ride my bike I do lots of HIIT and Circuit Training to help me get better overall. In part 1 of my mini-workout series I’m showing 2 types of workouts I do. The video below explains the moves.

These moves are to help you get better on your bike. So today’s workout was mainly focused on shoulders, core, and speed. The full workout took me about 30 minutes to complete.
