Workout of the Day for 10/2
Howdy!
Phew. Lot’s o’ words on the blog today, so I’m going to keep this pretty short. Promise!
If you live in the Seattle area, you know that we have races Saturday and Sunday this week. Yikes! If you’re doing them both, have fun, and be sure to rest well early next week.
So, on to the workout(s!)
– If you’re racing Saturday, today’s workout is “Can Openers.” I’m gonna’ be all self-referential and stuff and give you a link to the previous write-up: https://crosssports.wordpress.com/2009/09/26/workout-of-the-day-for-saturday-925/
– Not racing on Saturday, but racing (or working out…) on Sunday? Your workout is the “S.M.R. ”
Here you go:
– 11/2 to 2 hour Steady Moderate Ride. No hard efforts. Keep it above the level of a recovery ride, but not killin’ it, either.
Steady, moderate effort (get it?)
Power meter type person? You’re looking to do this ride at 15-20% below your CP level for a ride of this duration. You should feel like you are always going just a little bit slower than you want to…
When you get home from the ride, you should feel like you could have – and want to have – gone harder.
G’night!
