Make your training more fun:
1. Regeneration:
Your training has no effect without the necessary regeneration! Those who do not rest sufficiently cannot process the stimuli and thus do not achieve any progress. You should have sufficient rest, both physically and mentally. Choose regeneration through massage, sauna, relaxed training sessions and enough sleep.
2. No mixed training:
Do not try to train all your athletic abilities at once. For instance, do not include unnecessary sprints, intervals or other unnecessary exercises in your training because you think you will have the effect you are looking for. Therefore, focus on the improvement of your athletic ability in a training session.
3. Hard and smart:
Train hard, but do not push your body too hard because otherwise, you will fall asleep behind the wheel after the training sessions on the following days. The mixture of very hard training and basic units with low intensity make you a faster rider.
4. Eat and exercise:
Never forget the food intake during the training period! Eat small portions while riding, so that you do not get hungry when going home after the training session. It will often take you twice as long to recover from the workout if you push yourself to the edge.
5. Work out as planned:
Set a goal for the session and work strategically in order to achieve it. Structure your training and run a sustainable form of development. Set your training priorities with regard to endurance, strength, intensity and recovery.
6. Work out various exercises:
Don't just carry on with long endurance sessions. Mountain bikers should vary their training routine. You will complete your training sessions with technique, speed exercises (cadence training), sprints and other specific units. Set a number of training goals!
7. Work out individually:
A ladies mountain bike is quite different from mens so is better to train individually. You are bikers because you are looking for a sporting challenge. But do not try each common bike tour guide or try to be king of the mountain. You should have a training goal that you should achieve. If training in groups does not work for you, then you should train on your own more often. You must be aware that only an individual training schedule tailored to your strengths/weaknesses will get you the athletic performance you are looking for.
8. Develop your athletics skills:
An athletic body is more suited for biking! A well-developed torso and upper body muscles not only help you to optimize your transmission, but can also help you cope better with the technical sections. It also has a preventive effect against back pain. Therefore, you should take a strengthening program for trunk and upper body twice a week.
9. Work out your weaknesses:
You hate steep, technical climbs, because they are hard. Then work out exactly these things just because they are so hard. Most cyclists often train only their strengths. These are the most fun and that is why they are also your strengths. Think about your weaknesses as well and improve them.
10. Fun biking:
What is the difference between a professional mountain biker and you? The professional biker does not see biking as a hobby anymore! You have a job and sport biking is a way of spending your free time. Leave it at that and do not put yourself under any unnecessary pressure, but enjoy every moment of it. Work out as hard as a pro, but do not turn your hobby into a profession!
