INTRODUCTION:

triathlete

Cycling, sport of king with a bike.
If it is a demanding sport, it is well cycling. The bicycle, it is or one likes with passion, or one gives up and one passes to other thing. Many is likely to begin that young, it is much easier, and to practice the bicycle a such play, a recreation. Those which are put at it later, except with being an already sportsman, such as the triathlètes which succeed there very well, have more difficulty, they are more demanding than in their youth, do that more seriously and without the recreation, it is often the suffering which is with go.

To begin bike when one entered the adulthood is not part of pleasure, however how much years from pleasures then since cycling can be practiced until a advanced age.
The bicycle, the school of the suffering, the school of the life and the values . To practice cycling in club is a personal business which does not look at that that is to say, much is individualistic and prefers to organize their tours as a recluse, others prefer the clubs and their environment, their heart. It is in these clubs which one can learn the values that cycling develops: to know to engage in a step, a project, to observe its physical condition, its body, to be made appreciate others and to respect them to dare to embark them in a tour which is likely to be them galère. The cyclist is that which can be done small and observant, as much of him, others that regions and cities which it crosses.

Finally cycling and all the same a sport which can only be practiced, in group, the day, the night, in plain, in mountain, that it rains, which it snows or which it sale. Only constraint it requires a double investment, a bicycle of quality and a heart large like that, as well in physical qualities as human.

LONG WORK:

The Preparation as regards cycling rests above all on the bottom, the bottom is the beginning of the form. The bottom consists in making kilometers, that constitutes a base, a capital. Without the long one, I am not good with nothing. Work must be progressive, to want to make 400 km of 24 hours, requires beyond a moral good a basic drive some.
Thus it is advisable to multiply the outputs and to increase gradually. To take part in one 400 km of 24 hours can be made in four months of preparation while passing from the outputs of 60 km then 80 km then 100, 150 and 200 even 250. Being km by outputs, it is all the more interesting to multiply them with for examples of the outputs Saturdays and Sunday. I could kind carry out it one 400 km of 24 hours with like base 1.200 km in the last month including one week end of 480 km (Marseilles - Nice and return the following day).
In another manner I could note benefit of the multiplication of the outputs, without for all this mileage is significant. Thus during a few years, I went to my work bike, that is to say less than 4 km but twice per day, 5 days out of 7. And Sunday I was more forms some that the buddies of excursion. This remark is also valid in race with foot. It sometimes happened to me to prepare one of my first participation in the Marseille Cassis Half-Marathon to blow of daily outputs not exceeding 5 km with a longer weekly output, and the one hour time thirty will remain honorable about it.

SPECIFIC WORK:

The Preparation as regards cycling is specific according to what one wants to do. It even sometimes happened to me to supplement drives of Marathon by long meetings of bicycle. The whole is I believe to manage to work in the specific effort of what one seeks. A long effort bike will prepare with long meetings of bicycle. An effort on a short-haul will prepare by meetings or the speed of execution will be required. It is necessary to exaggerate the direction in which one works, sprint, mountain, endurance, and to bring back it to a tenth over the execution time passed for a exercise, and then to repeat the exercise. Thus to develop the power, it sometimes happens to me to make like specific work of the complete meetings on the large gear ratio, at intervals relatively low, with few cardiac beats, since it is not the required goal. For meetings of rate/rhythm, one can quite to the contrary repeat a consistent exercise with sprinter on 200 m, for making here assemble the cardiac pulsation and the rate/rhythm of cycling, the gear ratio will be selected consequently. Of these two examples, one can with leisure build his own meetings by directing what one does so that one seeks

FEEDING:

A good feeding requires to know the basic rules of the Nutrition for racers.
There is no feeding particular to the cycling which one does not find in the other efforts that I would describe as enduring. The rule being which it is necessary to charge the machine before the test by filling the tanks with the best fuels which are: slow sugars. Slow sugars are well cavity the pastes, rice, the potatoes, preferably not refined. Slow sugars that wants to as say, to banish some little fast sugars as tartlets, the cakes, sodas... All the refined products have their equivalent in the not refined line of goods, which brings more energy. To note the excellent sugars brought by the fruits.
When to charge the machine: For a 24 hours test of bicycle, it is recommended to eat slow sugars during the last fifteen days before the test.
During the test, it is advisable to comply with these rules with cereal contributions, or bars energy by paying attention to sugar rates, which should not be too significant. Proportioning between slow and fast sugar is not easy but will be lit better for an example: during the triathlon of Nice, where the last test is the race with foot, the supplies are regular with stations fed in soda, thin a sugar slow, would be they thus insane with dimensions organization or would be they makes embarked by their sponsors on the back of the triathlètes; soda is super fuel, which burns quickly, which holds little, which is sweetened too much and which thus made fall performances since it was consumed, the trick then consists in diluting it in water and hoping that the next supply is not deprived of this soda. Fast, super slow sugar carbureting by excellence does not do good housework with beforehand stored slow sugars, and there the organization preferred this sugar with very other. During the test, it is also advisable to eat elements some little salted to prevent cramps.
