Great routine! I don't have the adjustable bench at home and I guess the deadlift can be done quite similarly with two kettlebells? I like the 2x30 minutes recommendation that's a realistic goal. Do that and use your bike as transportation and you're likely set up pretty well to live long and healthy.
I hurt my left knee a year ago doing the festive 500. I’m not going to remember the name f what I think I did, but I’ve been doing glute work ever since, it was needed for me. I don’t know that it helped me on the bike, it I can feel it when running. Got to keep the body functioning.
I think it's great to have a simple strength training routine like this. But, I've noticed I still need to do some accessory exercises for core and back strength. And those add considerably to both the time that it takes and the fatigue load. Things like side planks, dead bugs, swimmer, W to Y, trunk rotations, etc. Each one isn't too hard but they add up in both fatigue and time. If I don't do those I eventually get problems when the weights get too big. And, I'll add that I enjoy doing yoga too but I still need the accessory exercises.
👍👍 One of the few cycling strength training videos I've seen that hasn't made me cringe. Do you place any importance on a particular hand orientation during pullups?
I really appreciate your comeback, as your videos helped me a lot in understanding my position on the bike and tweaking it until I got rid of various problems I had on my MTB. I do have a question, though. I decided to do workouts to strengthen my upper body. I’m planning 2-3 intensive upper body, and also lower body workouts with free weights. In what order should I do it: upper body first and ride afterwards or the other way around? Or even on separate days (which I‘d like to avoid, because of time savings). I‘m a CC/Marathon type mountain biker and ride distances between 50-120km per ride (3-5 days a week). Thank you very much in advance.

My shoulders are a bit wrecked , so not managed 1 pullup but the hangs and others u mention definitely do a good job . And hangs is a big thing
