This simple barbell based programme is designed for cyclist to work on their strength during the off season. It uses sets of 5-8 reps done to within 2-3 reps of failure. Start with a light weight in the first week that you can easily do 8 reps with. When you can successfully perform 8 great reps then add the minimum possible weight for next week. Good form is much more important than moving weight.

Each session typically takes around 60 minutes to complete. That estimate covers your working sets but doesn't account for warm-up or rest between sets, so budget a little extra time when you're first learning the movements.
