After 3 years of gym training nothing accelerated my dh performance more than when I got into muscle ups, front lever, hanging window wipers, weighted pullups and dips - strict (no kips), false grip and with band assistance as needed. Keeping a regular gym routine as a baseline also. I now don't get thrown offline at race speed in riskier sections, I have more confidence with trying the pros gap lines, and I find the bike buckles in hard corners more than myself now. I'm now held back by eyesight moreso than anything else. I'm surprised I don't see these movements in professional routines; they really translate to bike performance imo.
Hello everyone, at this point I would like to ask again whether you could answer my emails. I signed up in December with a 50% discount and you debited the full amount.
Disagree, unless you are trapped in a city and can't get out and ride. Maximum strength should be your primary concern when it comes to off bike training, if you do any at all. It makes everything easier. That alone will take you an hour to 90 minutes, 3 times per week. You haven't the time for these parlor tricks, especially kipping pullups. Ride and ride some more if you want to get better at mountain biking. Work on MTB specific skills on the trail, the skills that matter. Maybe do some mobility work after the ride.
