Message: [QUOTE="njkx, post: 1278633, member: 53354"] I've come to the conclusion that a fitness program only helps expert riders. For the rest of us it comes down to seat time. For example, I am an expert skier and a novice mx rider. 2 years ago I made a serious effort to train for both sports. I noticed that the training really made a difference in my skiing since I was already good at it and it helped me get to the next level. However, I don't feel it helped me much at all with mx. I am in better physical condition than most of my friends that ride but since I am less skilled I am wasting a lot more energy and tire out quicker. I think it is great to want to train and be in shape but I wouldn't expect it to help your riding unless you are already at a high level. [/QUOTE]
