I have definitely learned that leg strength is a must for us shorties. I prefer to workout at home vs a gym, so I have been doing some research into strength training targeted to riders. I'm also going to talk to a friend of mine and her husband to get their recommendations. She is a former personal trainer/body builder, he is still a personal trainer. Having their advice will help me out in avoiding aggravation of past shoulder/knee/ankle injuries.

I'm off to go make instapot chili!
