Training: Week 3
The last week of training was very tough. I was introduced to my first bike workout. Bike workout? Yeah, it sounds pretty simple, but under my Coach, Dan Pfaff, it’s no fun at all. This is how it worked. I had to pedal as fast as I could for ten seconds. You have to set your bike up so that you have a good amount of resistance. You have a minute rest in between each ten second pedaling. So get this, I had five sets of five 10 second repetitions, one minute in between each repetition and 3 minutes in between each set. After the second or third set, the legs feel really heavy. Once you get to the last set, your legs feel like they’re going to explode. Nevertheless, I got through the week doing bike workouts and they became slightly easy — just a tad, not much. It rained a lot last week, so that’s part of the reason why I had to do those workouts most of the week. But hey, when it’s all said and done, give me a Live Strong band, a bike, and call me Lance Armstrong cause I’m gonna pedal like a beast!
I’ll keep writing as usual. This post is short because there wasn’t too much going on last week. Like I said, the weather had a lot to do with last week’s workouts.
