I've added lifting and have noticed it on the bike. (not that i am that fast or anything)

I keep it super simple, using full body move and opposing muscle groups and two groups to do alternate days

warm up first...prefer 20 min interval on rowing maching (2 min warm up 30sec hard, 1:30 sec easy, repeat 8 time, 2 minute cool down)

workout 1 (5x5 reps each, 5 times)
Hourglass squat
bench press
Bent over Rows

workout 2 (5x5 reps each, 5 times)
Hourglass squat (or if no rest day, overhead squat, no weight, really stretches everything out)
Lat Pulldowns (until I can do a pull up)
Clean and press

simple and seem to cover everything ymmv
