    I like to change a chain every 2-3 month depending on the amount of riding, I had a snapper in hull on a drop , my right knee took a smashing on the stem....your knees are worth 30 bob every few month :)

    seems theres alot of different opions here, i,m not going to not go to the gym as i feel more strength is going to help eiether way.

    riding yes is the most important which sits at the top of my list, cardio ? ?? i understand jogging is different to trials but surely raising fitness through other ways other than riding has got to help ??

    Theres so much info though thanks (Y)

    So recently i,ve found my self hopping about on my bike thinking whats the point :-/

    Dont get me wrong i love riding and probably the best thing i,ve done for myself. But i need some sort of goal so ive decided to enter comps as from next year.

    But i need to raise my fitness levels, lose the fat and become stronger ( in a way become an athelete). I,ve quit smoking, began jogging and hit the gym 5 times a week. I jus need some advice on what i should be training in the gym to aim my riding, and how far should i be running. Should i be jogging every day as well as the gym ? Also should i start riding more natty to prepare for comps ? .

    Any advice or tips/routines would really help as i feel theres no order or even benefit to the way im training at the moment

    Thanks

    P.s sorry if its a little long winded

    while your on the subject of knees i snapped my chain today and proper cracked my knee on the stem it has hurt all day, i cant walk, straighten it or bend it for that fact, the stiller it is the better, is it possible i,ve fractured it.

    I broken my hands and hip before but they are nothing compared to this. any advice would be a great help

    cheers
