Like which?[/COLOR]
Speaking of which, I've been doing his 5x5 program (again, for the first time in 5 years) since December and have gotten stronger since.
I'm looking to switch up my program end of March. Everyone should look up that program and try it for building strength. It's not quite the perfect Strength training routine/program aimed for cycling but for general fitness it's excellent. You do work on your legs by doing Squats and Deadlifts which are the very basic and very important leg exercises.
