Cycling Strength Training Discussion: FORCE Number for Deadlifts

Craig brought a great topic to the table and want to hear more about your thoughts on the Force Number from Ryan Flaherty and what you think of this.

We discuss how to calculate your force number, which can provide you with a target for lifting, as opposed to "just lifting".

Just as we have FTP goals and other metric goals, this number can help provide more focus.

The one thing I want to point out is don't just start deadlifting. Also, all your secondary and tertiary lifts are still very, very important.

We're huge proponents of lifting heavy in the gym for the strength gains, the injury prevention, hormonal health benefits; everything that makes you a stronger cyclist, and better overall athlete.
