TIP #1 Posted By Allen Moon

Become a spin-meister over the winter!  Use this stationary training ride once a week as your recovery day.  Warm up 15 minutes building cadence to 100.  Then, using a lighter resistance, do one-legged spinning, 30 - 60 seconds each leg, alternating legs for 10 minutes.  Spin 5 minutes to recover.  Then, both legs together, do a few 1 - 3 minute sets steadily increasing to your maximum cadence ability.  Recover in between at 100.  Cool down easy 90.  Hint: Pretend you are shuffling your feet back-and-forth, instead of thinking as up and down.  Your will be pleased with your smooth high cadence.
