Cycling requires a balance of the lower body muscles. You want both your right and left side strong so you can get the most out of each pedal stroke—instead of one leg doing all the work, while the other spins without power. So, to make sure both sides of your body put in the effort, you need a single-leg workout on your schedule. And thankfully, we have the best one for you right here.
This routine, created by Aaron Borroughs, C.S.C.S., certified strength and conditioning coach based in Easton, Pennsylvania, will not only challenge your balance and single-leg stability, but it will also work your legs from all sides. You hit the major muscle groups that power up as you pedal—quads, calves, hamstrings, and glutes. You’ll feel it in the core too, as your midsection muscles fire to keep you steady.
