GLOSSARY
CYCLING TERMS
Cadence —
Revolutions per minute.
Draft —
The area behind another pedaling cyclist that breaks the wind for you allowing you to do
roughly 30% less work.
Field —
A group of cyclists in a race.
Hammer —
To ride or run as hard as you can.
Pace Line —
Several cyclists drafting one another in a line to minimize energy needs and improve the
performance of the group. By holding this position, the front cyclist breaks the wind resistance for the
following cyclist(s). This allows the following cyclist(s) to rest as one person expends more energy. When
the leader is tired, he drops back to the end of the line and then the next person takes over.
Personal Record (PR) —
The best time you ever recorded for a specific race or distance.
Road Rash —
Abrasions from falling off of your bicycle.
Roadie —
A cyclist who enjoys riding the roads rather than the trails.
Rollers —
An indoor training device for cyclists, allowing them to pedal and work on their balance at the
same time.
RPM (Cadence) —
Revolutions per minute when pedaling a bicycle.
Spinning —
Pedaling fast and smooth. Also Johnny G’s trademarked indoor group cycling program.
Wind Trainer —
An indoor training device for cyclists. Their bikes are mounted onto a stand that holds
the rear wheel. When pedaled, the rear wheel turns a fan that creates resistance and allows the cyclist
to simulate an outdoor riding experience.
Recovery Interval (Rest interval) —
Recovery between sets of an exercise, which allows you to exert
more energy during the subsequent set.
Second Wind —
When breathing rate normalizes and your pace becomes relaxed as opposed to labored.
Steady State —
When heart and breathing rate reach a level state.
Stroke Volume —
The volume of blood pushed out of your left ventricle with each beat.
Training Zone —
Working within target heart rate zones.
Watt —
