Default Weight training for Endurance track

Hi, I was just wondering what peoples thoughts were towards using a weight training program (eg low weight, high reps), for more endurance orientated track events such as the individual pursuit, scratch race, points race etc.
Thanks in advance.

Default Re: Weight training for Endurance track

Since no one has answered, I'll give it a shot:
My feeling is that weights for the enduro events are not as important as for sprints. However, weights may help you if you are not able to turn over a big gear from a standing start, which can be useful even in enduro events such as pursuit, etc.
For much better and more informed opinions from real coaches, my advice is to visit www.fixedgearfever.com which has an extremely active forum (unlike this one )
