Weekend, Chest Day and Cycling

For my weekend ride, I had 2-3 Stinger gels, 2 Stinger waffles, and about 2-3 bottles of Ultima. I also had 1.5 shot bloks, which came in handy after about 70 miles into the ride.  This was not optimal as I think I could have used more calories during the ride.  However, it was good enough.  Avoided a hamstring and quad cramp, but just barely.

I took a break yesterday mostly because the kids had soccer games all afternoon.  I can't believe Shannon was going to work out legs yesterday.  It explains a lot though.  I did really well diet-wise though.

I managed to get up this morning despite this weekend's time change.  I got my chest workout in and the motivation for each set was the race this weekend.  Explosive moments continue until failure.  Got a good core workout after as well.

Looking forward to riding at lunch.   I hope others bring in their bikes.  Need to train up.  Not sure which bike will come out for the race yet.  I swapped out the wheels between the bikes, so let's see how each feel in the next couple days.  I should be able to decide by tomorrow.
