Workout Of The Day for Monday, 10/5…
Phew… another weekend of racing out of the way. I hope you had fun!
Before I give you the workout, a reminder: Think back to your race today (or yesterday…) and make mental (or actual…) notes of what went well for you, and – more importantly – what didn’t. What do you need to work on – technically, physically… mentally?
Make a point of working on those things this week.
If you do this every week, you will get better – I promise!
Ok – so, Monday’s workout:
Today is a Recovery Day.
Spin out your legs for an hour or so – however long it takes to feel like… well, like you feel better. It’s pretty obvious when it happens. Simply hop on the bike, and ride really damn slowly until your legs feel better. You’ll know when that happens, and when it does, turn around and go home. Don’t go hard at all — no efforts, no pressure on the pedals. Just spin.
Got the spinning done?
Great. Now do some stretching, get a massage, take a nice long bath… relax.
If you feel like you just have to do something more, do some core work – check out my earlier post on Crunches, follow the link to the Good ab workout, and start by doing some of those excercises…
Rest well, and see you tomorrow for some more hard work…
