[QUOTE="Shig, post: 804335, member: 50190"] Have you hit a plateau? If so, then a little "muscle confusion" like you are describing might help. It would also help to try different excercises targeting the same muscle groups. I've developed a bad habit of doing the same exercises and reps for years. Although I've maintained alot of strength with minimal injury, I havn't gotten much stronger. How often do you ride? If you switch to less reps with heavier weights, you will probably need more recovery time. If you are racing, then the higher intensity work-out would be best during the off-season. Most in-season athletes switch to a lower intensity strength-maintenance routine. For building strength in the bench press, I've had great luck with a pyramid workout with sets of 8, 5, 3, and 2 reps. Add 10 lbs between every set. When you get all reps in every set, start 10lbs heavier from the beginning in your next workout. You should be able to add 10 lbs a month to your max bench doing this workout twice a week. [/QUOTE]
