Tonight’s scheduled workout was Power Intervals by Carmichael Training Systems (CTS). That workout just kicked my butt. My legs are fried. It’s so hard to gauge where I’m at because this morning I swam a few laps and played basketball so my legs were tired right from the start. Well, here are my stats from tonight’s workout: Total Time: 57:13:10 Total Distance (was on a trainer): 10.68 miles Average HR: 130bpm Max HR: 166bpm...
You can find this weeks workout in the left hand column. I am doing more spin classes, which can be substituted with power, muscular endurance or anaerobic endurance workouts. I have nothing major planned this week so there should be no excuses for not getting 10 hours of saddle time.
Did 2.25 hours of spin class on Saturday. The first class is 90 minutes and the second class is 45 minutes. The instructor for the first class is incredible.

That’s just a lot of spinning. The second class instructor...

I think it may have to do with snowboarding. My snowboard boots were a size too big, which I didn’t realize. This caused foot pain, which I could reduce by taking out the insoles. I think that caused...
You can find the workout HERE Once again, I find my legs burnt up from snowboarding 5 hours on Saturday. I did manage to get in a ride on Sunday, although only 1 hour. I was suppose to do 2 more hours, but my legs are done. With that said, I am trying to move my workouts to weekdays, however, you can adjust them to any day if you have weekends open. I did...
I schedule a lot of hours on the weekend because there is more flexibility. The issue I’m running into is snowboarding takes up so much time that I can’t get on the bike. I boarded all day yesterday so I had no saddle time. I did cancel on today’s boarding just so I could get on my bike. My goal today is to put in 3 one hour sessions. So during the superbowl, I’ll...
