From Zeke:
Dear Dave,
Why is it good to do standing sets on the bike?
From Dave Scott:
Zeke, changing your muscle recruitment pattern will optimize your potential economy on the bike. Adding segments of standing enhances quad and glute strength which will benefit all elements of racing – hills flats, and wind.
Try inserting 2 sessions per week of 20 – 30 minutes either in the hills or flats that include 50% standing. i.e. 10 repeats of 2 ½ minutes. Each repeat would have approximately 60 – 90 seconds of standing. Mix it up with different gearing.
The intensity should be moderately hard to very hard with a short rest of 15 – 45 seconds between repeats. Zeke, try it for 4 weeks and your flat time trialing will get faster.
Good luck,
Dave

Within 24 hours of doing a hard workout, on MAP, my body recovers from what I have done and is ready for the next training day. This is invaluable for any athlete of any age.
MAP allows the body not only to heal, but to gain from each workout done. I feel it. I love it. I recommend it.” - Dave Scott
