Workout Of The Day for Thursday, 12/2 “Moderation…”
Howdy folks,
Hands up if you’re going to Portland this weekend…

OK…
I’m not (I need to get my damn shoulder healed…) but for those who are, especially if they’re doing the double, and then Nationals next weekend… Take it easy today.
Your workout is a One Hour Moderate Ride.
This is just what it sounds like. Go out and ride moderately for an hour. Not quite a recovery ride, but no hard efforts. Keep it steady, under control, and fun.
Not racing this weekend?
We’re going to hit you with some short intensity, and some climbing all at once.
Your workout is Get On Up.
Warm up well
Find a moderate length hill, with a slope that is barely manageable in your big ring.
Start your interval on the flat, and roll into the hill at a pretty good speed.
As you hit the base of the climb, get out of the saddle and attack the climb.
Full gas, 30 second effort up the climb (it’s OK to sit down after you get going.)
After 30 seconds, back off, turn around, coast back down hill, and back to the flat .
Go again.
Repeat 5-6 times.
That’s a set.
Rest for 5 minutes between sets.
Do 3 sets.
Have fun!
