In the winter period theindoor training It's a fundamental aspect of a cyclist's training. Some people continue to ride despite the harsh weather, but for those seeking the quality and effectiveness of a home-based training session, Weider has a targeted integration in storeProducts that serve to compensate for the more intense sweating of the home climate and are intended to offer a complement for a specific type of effort.




The importance of integration
In indoor training, you're always pushing: as soon as you stop pedaling, you stop. This makes training on cycle simulators in some ways more productive than the outdoor one. It is true that the effort generates a lot of fatigue, but athletes will eventually gain more strength and ability to express more power at low pedaling frequency.
At the same time, indoor training, also considering the difficulty cooling the body, generates excessive sweating and a significant electrolyte loss that must be compensated for with adequate hydration. Furthermore, thanks to technologies such as some training software that allow you to compete with athletes around the world or take on intense races and competitions, home trainers can also be used very long training sessions. For this reason it is also important to prevent dehydration with adequate products based on mineral salts and replenish calories with energy bars and gels.




Which one to choose?
To ensure optimal recovery, it's a good idea to take products specifically developed for the post-workout phase. To stay hydrated, Weider recommends: Iso Energy from the Victory Endurance lineThis is an innovative formula that combines simple and complex carbohydrates, amino acids, antioxidants and electrolytesi, specially designed to rehydrate, optimize and increase endurance during training. Alternatively, there is also Iso Energy Drink, ready-to-drink energy drink, composed of an ideal combination of carbohydrates and electrolytes with a low glycemic index.
For those who want a sugar-free product, there are the effervescent salts Available in tablet form, ready to dissolve in water. Their composition and refreshing citrus flavor make them an ideal option for hydration and mineral replenishment, both during and after training. Finally, for recovery, there's the Total Recovery, a formula composed of Carbo-Protein Optimun Complex (combination of dextrose, whey protein isolate and hydrolyzed whey protein), Glutamine Peptides and L-Glutamine, branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), electrolytes and vitamins.
