The Workout Of The Day for Monday, 11.5.12. “Legz”
Howdy folks,
Phew.
It’s Monday… time to rest our legs a little bit.
So, hey… today? Go for a little…
Recovery Spin –
– Get on your bike.
– Roll out into the street, or hop on your trainer… maybe with a video playing?
(Check out the battle on the last lap… HOOOOO Boy!!!)
…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.
Relax if you can. If not, head off to work, school, or whatever the daily drag is for you.
Have fun!
