I've been going to the gym ALOT recently. I'm about 5"9", 2 1/2 months ago i weighed 10"2 stone now I weigh 10"11 I started going because i got pretty bad arm pump during comps. So glad that i did start going now. Its just made me feel 100% better somehow, now i wake up in the morning and feel really good. as for riding i cant really say untill i start comps again but i always ride good now where before i had good and bad days. key is to bulk up but not to much because being hugeee means your flexibility wont be as good plus your bike wont thank you for it. at the moment i am trying to bulk up but after Christmas im going to start strengthening. Bulking/toning you do by doing more reps and less weight (I.E. 40kg and 3 sets of 10-25 reps, you should start struggling on a bout the 3rd to last rep ) Strengthening you do more weight and less reps (I.E Your max weight and 3 sets of 3-5 reps) when your training specifically for trials try to think of the the movements you make on the bike and fit them together with a exercise. take Olympic lifting ...
