Question:
How do I work upon improving my VO2 max ?? What other exercise I should do to become biologically more fit for cycling?
Hi Pankaj,
Power interval training is your answer, pick a climb that is easy enough to ride sat down, but hard enough to make you try very hard. Split the climb into ride able sections and ride as hard as you can. The best way to achieve improvements is to use a pulse monitor then you know that the efforts are worth it.
