Guest EPCC Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Week 2 remember it will be slightly harder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Last week was pretty good. HR in the zones required. The last 4 mins of turbo 1 are all about focussing the mind to get through it. Legs definitely felt tired on Saturday. Turbo 3 went well last night HR up above 170 for last 3 effort intervals, and weights good this evening. I might not be lifting a sufficiently heavy weight in some sets - did increase the weights in those sets I found too easy this evening but only by 5 kg. Upper body strength is rubbish. I am such a skinny......... Slightly off topic. The machines I'm using use air resistance (Psi) does anyone know of the conversion from Psi to weight. Is it as simple as 25 Psi = 25 lbs ??? I'm just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest George Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 Mark, doesn't matter how much you are lifting, so long as the load makes you work. A 5 kilo increase is about right too. Small incremental increases are the best way to make gains while avoiding injury. I have been laid up with flu/black lung since Sunday so next season is already a write off. If only my immune system could support my athletic ability! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted November 17, 2013 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Yes Billy, if ok with you, sounds good to me. What do we need to bring, is it bike, turbo and pulse meter? I heard someone forget their bike once :-| ?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted November 17, 2013 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Crikey billy I'm away that whole week but if something else is poss Sorry pal Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Will email it in the morning coach. All going well thus far. A day's rest before the long weekend ride certainly made a difference to the functionality of the legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavieB Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Billy, A bit cheeky maybe but any chance of getting a test done for baseline purposes? Obviously haven't been following any plan as I like doing 'cross in the "off" season and just try and get a bit fitter for that - nothing too scientific mind! Let me know but no probs if you can't fit it in. Cheers, Davie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
