Yesterday, I got caught up downloading some songs for my Ipod that I didn't get a chance to blog. I did get a back workout in and the pace was elevated similar to how my chest day was on Monday...i.e. little rest between sets and exercises. I was even able to squeeze in one additional exercise, plus I got my core training in as well.
My lunch ride yesterday was a good training ride with a pretty decent amount of elevation. Shannon smoked all of us after one of the hills, but I can definitely live with that. I did get a couple PRs, so there were instances I was pushing pretty hard. I was surprised though that my left calf cramped on Bison since I hadn't ridden since Saturday and only did spin class on Monday. I may be a little dehydrated, so I'll have to fix that.
I normally don't do leg days with an event coming up on the weekend, but I decided to do so anyway today. I did pull back some and only did one exercise for calves (albeit with 1 additional set) and 2 quad exercises (again with additional sets), but I skipped hamstrings since that's one of the prone areas for cramping where I wanted to give it rest. I really hit a lot of reps on my quad exercises though, so let's see how that works for me.
For lunch, I'm going to try and hit a spin class at 1 PM but my schedule is jacked full of meetings today. I may not get in a full hour, but I'll take what I can get.
