case_images: Mean weekly training duration (bars, y1-axis), mean weekly number of heavy strength training sessions (circles, y2-axis), weekly mean number of low-intensity training (LIT) sessions, moderate-intensity training (MIT) sessions, and high-intensity interval training (HIT) sessions, and distribution of sets and repetitions of the strength training for the two cyclists starting with heavy strength training (EandS1 and EandS2; upper panel) and for the two cyclists continuing endurance training only (E; lower panel). Data start with the preparatory period via the competition period and the new preparatory period, and conclude at the start of the following competition period (i.e., 1.5 years).

case_images: Figure 1 depicts the mean weekly number of HST sessions and distribution of sets and repetitions of E&S1 and E&S2 across the first part of this case report starting with the preparatory period via the competition period and the new preparatory period, and concludes at the start of the following competition period (Figure 1). The endurance training for the two E&S and the two E cyclists is shown as mean weekly training duration as well as mean weekly number of low-intensity training (LIT) sessions, moderate-intensity training (MIT) sessions, and high-intensity training (HIT) sessions (Figure 1).
case_images: Monthly training duration (bars, y1-axis), monthly number of heavy strength training sessions (circles, y2-axis), monthly number of low-intensity training (LIT) sessions, moderate-intensity training (MIT) sessions, and high-intensity interval training (HIT) for the cyclist continuing with heavy strength training after the first part (EandS1; upper panel) and the cyclist who started with heavy strength training in the preparatory period after the first part (E1 + EandS; lower panel). Data start with the competition period via the preparatory period, new competition period, and start of the last preparatory period, and conclude at the start of the following competition period (i.e., 2 years).
