Summary

This study looked at whether adding strength training to regular cycling workouts helps competitive cyclists improve performance and muscle function. Twenty-four male cyclists either did strength training plus endurance training or just endurance training for 10 weeks. Researchers measured muscle strength, power, and tendon changes at several points to see if any benefits lasted when strength training stopped.
