筋トレ効果を説明すると非常に長いけどわかりやすい結果はこちら
高レベルのサイクリスト(VO2max 66.8±1.6ml/min/kg)では12週間、有酸素+筋トレした群で185分間サイクリング後の5分間全力パワーが有意に改善(+7.2±2.0%)
スミスマシンハーフスクワット等でもこれだけの効果

Abstract Synopsis
- Strength training combined with endurance training enhances leg strength and boosts performance in a 5-minute all-out cycling test after 185 minutes of submaximal cycling in well-trained athletes.
- The study found that cyclists doing heavy strength training increased their 1RM in squats, and showed greater improvements in power output, oxygen consumption, heart rate, blood lactate, and perceived exertion compared to those who only did endurance training.
- Overall, adding strength exercises leads to better endurance performance and efficiency during prolonged cycling efforts. ]
