At this point, there’s no question that cyclists (and pretty much everybody, really) should be doing some form of strength training. This time of year, we all get eager to tackle new fitness goals as the weather often has us spending less time on our bikes and more time in the gym. But with age, muscle mass dwindles and bones weaken. Resistance training helps slow that process, making you more powerful and structurally sound, which are both really important if you ride a bike.

These moves target your primary movers (your legs) and help strengthen the muscles that support your body on and off the bike (your core).
