John Seivert riding his stationary road bike in the garage. The set-up is complete with TV for viewing motivational content, fan for cooling in the summer, cold water, great circulation, and plenty of bike choices.

This past year, 2020, was a challenging year maintaining my fitness goals. Since I use bike races as my targets to get in shape and stay in shape, the cancellation of races all over the country left me to train with no goals. As I write this month’s column, I am carrying an extra five pounds. I’m not quite at racing weight to toe the starting line of any race. My three favorites donuts, brownies, and beer didn’t help much either. Now that we have just begun the second full week of the new year, halleluiah, I thought it would be fitting to give you some evidence-based helpful hints to maintaining fitness throughout the new year.
