Yesterday's 80+ miler bike ride did work my legs some, but it wasn't too bad. I felt sleepy when I got home where I tried to take a nap, but my legs were a little achy making it difficult to do so. Based on the weekend eating celebrations, I only had to have 2 gels and 1 Shot Bloks yesterday. I also had 3 bottles of Ultima with some to spare.
I had thought about skipping the gym this morning given that I turned 44 today. However, because of easing up on my diet a little the last couple days, I decided otherwise. I had a GREAT chest workout today, and was still in "race" mode in there. I got in 5 exercises and just went for it on each set. I also got my core training in, but I backed off a little on the lower back both on weight and reps. Last week, when I stepped up the weight, I felt some random twinges subsequently...not good.
For my lunch trainer, I'll be doing some more cardio. I may bring in my bike though just to get some miles in depending on what we do this Thursday now that a new series is starting on the crits. We'll see.
