Post-Conditioning Lower Body
-
For expediency I made this quick and hit the 2 priority exercises for my conditioning performance and knee health. I began with Rear-Foot Elevated Split Squats, relatively light for volume. These have been a game changer both in terms of specificity in support of my bike sessions, but also in maintaining lower body strength and mobility without the axial loading of barbell back and/or front squats.

Second, I did some seated calf raises for both the gastrocs and soleus. A lot of people way overload this exercise and see little to no results. I have found that since the calves and the soleus in particular are more amenable to volume, going way lighter and pushing into the 20+ rep range is generally more effective with these. You still want to tease out as much range as you can, using the step for maximum dorsiflexion in the bottom, and for leverage to squeeze at the top.
