Get Stronger To Ride Faster | 8 Gym Workouts That Will Help Your Mountain Biking

22,668 View

We're in the gym today, working on some movements and exercises similar to what your body will go through when you're on the mountain bike. So, if you're a cross-country whippet, a downhill thrasher or an enduro weapon, practicing some of these workouts over the off-season will pay dividends for your power, strength, balance and resistance on the mountain bike throughout the year.

A huge thanks to the legend Carl Constanza of Stanza Fitness, Bath for hosting us in his gym and taking us through all the finer details of these exercises.
