In case any of you ever wondered, this is exactly what I picture hell to look like. The view from my trainer. Never a good thing.
Sorry about the horrible picture. That is the best my phone could do and I currently cannot find my normal camera.
Because of yesterday’s post, I needed to get off my ass and get down to business. So, when I got home, I walked in, gave the Mrs. a kiss and just went to get changed. There was nothing getting in my way from riding the trainer. Spinervals #22.0 – Time Trialapalooza was what was the prescribed workout. Even though I had this dvd for about 3 years now, it was one that I have never done. Not sure why, but I just never did it.
Gotta say, it was a pretty solid workout. It is about 80 minutes long, consisting mostly of 4 intervals: one 20 minute interval at a few beats below your lactate threshold (LT), one 15 minute interval at about your LT, which is about 5 beats higher than the first, one 10 minute interval a tad higher than your LT which is about 5 higher again, and then a 5 minute, all out, leg burner. See for yourself with my heart rate file:
That last one is an average of 186 beats a minute for the 5 minutes. That will get ya going.
Plans for tonight?? More of the same, but a different video.
