Since cycling isn't as much of a technique sport as swimming, shouldn't there be a greater ease in switching sports for the swimmer Lance?
I have a question, since it keeps coming up that cycling isn't as technique dependent as swimming.
How much air resistance is experienced by a cyclist over the Tour de France?
We are comparing fundamental training methods between a sport where the biggest race is close to 90 hours long and a sport where the biggest event is currently under 21 seconds for the winners. This seems silly to me, but this might explain that triathletes typically have very strong swim legs or very weak swim legs when compared to their entire race. If you train for all 3 legs using the same methodology, you are training incorrectly for at least one of the legs.
