Re: Racing Workout

CobraZb,

Where are you from? In addition to my racing background I also happen to be a certified fitness trainer. If you're ever interested in designing a program for racing let me know. In short, racing is a full body workout! A solid cardiovascular program is a must. Medium weights and medium repetitions of an exercise is what your looking for to ensure you challenge your type 1 and type 2 muscle fibers. (Stabilization as well as strength). Eventually after a nice fitness base is established power training enters the picture, which is how fast the muscle is contracted and it's force output. There's lots of variables that go into this when designing a program. If you have any more specific questions let me know.
