Warm-Up
Warm up is of critical importance to the success of your cycling.
The demands of your riding profile should be prepared in the
warm-up to achieve maximal results. You must get your working
muscles to a temperature of optimum performance where the
circulatory system is delivering oxygen and nutrients efficiently to
those muscles. Depending on the workout session goal, warm up
can take from 15 minute to 20 minutes.

maximal effort
