Cycling Better

I’m back – back from a long slumber on many levels – not much riding hardly any exercise at all and there were sweets…. oh the vegan sweets!

Now it’s time to pay the piper.

I’m back and have been for 3 weeks – riding indoors on the trainer and hitting the gym most weeks have 4-5 training days so far and on my off days I’m dying to be working out and not resting. The rest days are the most difficult ones for sure. Those are the days where I just want to keep pushing and get back into shape asap! But, I know I need to rest – I’m older now and need to stay fresh for the tough workouts I’m putting myself through on the other days.

No more base building for me – it’s intervals everyday on the bike now – the time of each interval may vary based on the workout but this is how to get better faster – ride hard.

Riding hard is how you get better at cycling. Today is a rest day so I’m dying to get out on the bike – it’s 60 degrees and sunny as well – torture!!!

Next I tell you all about the nutrition plan… this is where it gets fun.

Ride safe my friends.
