I thought I'd save my legs for this weekend's century, so this morning I opted to work on shoulders instead. Went back to the fast low intensity high rep mode and had a great workout as a result. My shoulders were definitely feeling the pain after a few of those high rep sets. I also got my core worked out, so it was a complete day of training.
One thing I thought I'd share was the importance of establishing a focal point during the exercise. This is both visually and mentally. I do this often where I just look at an object and stare at it while I let my mind focus on what I'm trying to accomplish as well as what will motivate me to do more reps while ignoring the pain.
My legs are a little tight given the riding/spinning for the last 3 day, but I will probably bring my bike in and go out for a ride during lunch. Nothing crazy I hope. Just need to keep the blood circulating.
