Energy Systems Used for Cycling

Energy production and management are the core of endurance sports. Your body has three main energy systems that enable you to put power to the pedals—aerobic, anaerobic, and neuromuscular. In this introduction to the different energy systems, we'll cover how they produce energy, how they are different, and why they are essential.

Power Based Training: What Every Cyclist Should Know

Power is the only objective metric you can use to train with. Other metrics — distance, heart rate, RPE — are subjective. This isn’t newfound knowledge. Most cyclists know this, but there are far fewer cyclists who have spent the time to really getit. So why is having more than a baseline understanding of power important; why does objectivity in training even matter; and what exactly does power...
