In this film I giving a basic fitness training overview for cyclists. I explain what fitness is and how the Overload Principle works, how heart rate is the best method of gauging how hard we are training, the principles of nutrition for exercise and weight loss and how psychology plays a major role in training. 

By incorporating these elements in to your workout it is possible to loose weight, and ride further and faster.

This overview will serve as an introduction to my series of films that will examine each of these elements in greater detail.
