I haven't forgotten but when i look at wattage 90% of total power is coming from the down-stroke(the push), so i think a lot of energy focused on exercises improving the sprinting power of the down-stroke is time well spent. Sure pedaling in circles is ok, but if you want to snap crankarms you're going to be doing that on the downstroke!
