Hi all,
The order that the workouts appear on your calendar is the order that they’re meant to be performed.
Occasionally we find one out of sorts, but as a rule, follow the order that they appear on your calendar.
If you’d like to do extra yoga sessions, similar to how @Martin chooses to do a yoga before strength, I’d recommend one of the Activation, mobility or stability routines. Save the recovery focused ones for afterwards.
The cycling session planned for the day is what dictates whether you do the ride or the strength first. If the cycling session is cadence builds, standing starts or any other workout that includes neuromuscular activation (high or low cadence work), you can get away with doing it before OR after strength, but the recommendation is generally after. As @Martin has said, we want you to do the strength while you’re fresh, which reduced risk of injury, if there is any. Cycling is lower risk when your legs are fatigued. If you have a recovery spin scheduled, then you should do that AFTER strength, as a cool-down/active recovery tool.
One extra note- If you have strength scheduled on your calendar but no yoga before it, I would choose one of the following options to help get warmed up for the strength session:
1- an activation/mobility focused yoga routine
2- a dynamic warmup consisting of bodyweight movements like squats, lunges, spiderman, inchworm, lateral squats, shoulder rolls, etc.
3- a light-moderate 5-10 minute spin or other form of light activity of your choice.
