When cyclists talk about getting faster, aerodynamics often sounds like something reserved for pros, wind tunnels and marginal gains. In reality, the way air flows around you affects every ride. Understanding it can change how you think about speed.
Riding through winter is entirely achievable with the right approach. A few practical changes to your preparation, gear and mindset can make cold weather riding safer, more enjoyable, and far more consistent.

FTP is more than just a number – it’s a powerful way to measure fitness, set training zones and track progress. Discover what counts as a good FTP for cyclists, how gender and age influences FTP, and what it really takes to improve your cycling power.
Cycling in winter has a very particular feel. The air feels heavier in your lungs, your shoulders hunch without you noticing, and the first few minutes can feel uncomfortably real about how cold it really is. You are not imagining it, either. Winter riding asks more of your body, and what you wear subtly decides whether the ride settles into something steady and enjoyable, or gradually starts to unravel.
Light training is easy, low-intensity riding that supports recovery, consistency, and enjoyment. It keeps you moving on days when pushing harder doesn’t make sense.

Plyometric leg exercises turn strength into explosive power by training you to absorb force and spring back quickly. With controlled jumps and landings, you build reactive strength, better stability, and faster acceleration that carries over to sport and cycling.
