The Cyclocross Workout of The Day for Monday, 8.5.12. “Mars. Wow.”
Howdy folks!
Wow. Mars…
If you’re like me, you put down a couple of beers in celebration of the Mrs Curiosity landing last night, and that means you’re:
A) a Nerd, and proud of it.
B) ready for today’s workout
which is…
One Hour Recovery Spin.
– Get on your bike. Roll out into the street, and just spin around for an hour.
Really small gear, no hard efforts – heck, no medium effort. Spin. You’re looking to move your legs around in circles, almost like there is no chain on the bike. The idea is to get your body moving, flush the systems out, and speed your recovery.
When you do your recovery ride -if you have the time- just get out and spin aimlessly. At a certain point, your legs suddenly feel better.
As soon as that happens, turn around, go home, eat, stretch, and put your legs up.
Happy Monday, and Yay Mars!!
