Sounds like a fun day at the office...
ReplyDeleteI was kinda sick for a while after… normal stuff…
ReplyDeleteI still want that crank :) How is your training?
ReplyDeleteSo 60 minutes standing? On the rollers? I must really suck, I can only get about 5 minutes before I start bobbing and weaving. I had the death experience yest as well, I start begging though....
ReplyDeleteCrank is in the basement with your name on it.. training is going very good.. took today off though.. was a hard 3 in a row, and today the way I was feeling would have killed me.. Ill save it for tomorrow... anytime you want the crank just shoot me an email... we can meet up, or I can drop off.. whatever works.
ReplyDeleteI am a single speeder. I make sure I get one solid '4-hour' out-of-the saddle, and a minimum of 6-hours over the week as a total standing. Of the 15-20 hours that is really not too much. My ‘World Record’ was 7-hours straight. My quads were so trashed I was sick for two days. I have adapted for the most part and, my quads never get sore any more, but I suffer in other ways. My hands and feet can’t handle the watts and I have new blisters every time I ride hard… even with the gloves. Taping up really helps however. The problem is the repetive nature of the beast. When running or riding out side everything is constantly changing; your grip, joint angles, seated position. On the roller you are lock in.
ReplyDeletewe use to use ducktape on our hands when we paddled. it sucks to get off but you minus the friction. good luck and way to inspire me to get onto the trainer!
