The Roadman Cycling Podcast How Quickly Do You Lose Fitness When You Take a Break from Training?
How quickly do you lose fitness, what is the minimum amount of training needed just to maintain fitness and what actually happens our bodies if we stop training for a few weeks? In todays podcast Sarah navigates the uncharted territories of detraining, exploring its impacts on our bodies and unraveling the science behind reversing fitness gains. From the inevitable reduction in VO2 max to the nuances of maintaining and regaining fitness, we decode the complexities cyclists face during breaks. Discover how a few weeks off the bike may not derail your progress entirely and gain insights into effective strategies for a successful comeback.
