Howdy folks,

I hope you had a great weekend of racing.

I know Adam did…

Sick.

It’s Monday. You’re probably getting deluged with all kinds of work/life stuff.

Feeling pretty spent today?

Take it easy  on the bike.

Go for a nice, relaxing…

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.

– Just get out on the road 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.

Try to take it as easy as you can today, and get yourself set for the rest of the week.

Enjoy!
