General Workout Plans Are Not Enough

Posted August 20, 2007 * Comments(0)

When I went bike riding with my grandson the other day it completely changed my mind of what my total fitness was. About ten minutes into our ride my leg muscles began to burn fiercely and it wasn’t much longer until I had to stop and rest. Although part of my general workouts consisted of a lot of walking which worked some of my leg muscles, it didn’t workout the muscle groups that were needed for bike riding. I guess Lance Armstrong’s Tour De France record is safe for now. If I were an amateur cyclist interested in turning pro, where would I find a good cycling workout plan?
