I ride my bike for exercise, extra drag means more work, means a better work out.
Just like swimming, I've just started swimming this summer and my bathing suit acts like a parachute compared to the speedos the other guys are wearing. More work (more drag) means I'll be stronger.
In boxing the training gloves weigh more than the fight day gloves for a reason.

Unless you're deliberately holding back during a workout, lower drag won't make you not as strong. You'll just go faster on the same wattage during training.
