Riding lately

Lately I have been having some serious issues on the bike.

I am feeling flat and not able to recover fast enough to be of any help to my teammates in ANY races. I have felt like this for the last 2 months. Not really sure what is going on. I am blaming it on pretty much everything (overtraining, under-training, stress, some blood disorder, bad nutrition… not really sure what it is).

I have noticed that after I started rowing again I have a good 10 minutes of power in my legs. After that I am blown. I really need something like 5 hours for of power.

Need to sit down and think hard about it.

I think you need to get rid of Martha. She may be holding you back.

Combination of rowing and biking not mixing well?

I think that that might be the case. It sucks cause they are so good for me. Different muscle uses….sucks

Totally sucks. Maybe your body will adapt in time to it though.

JH,
We haven’t met, but I suggest performance enhancing drugs.

Take a close up picture of your open mouth and I’ll see if I can diagnose you on this end.

Chime in!

About

What are we all about? Who knows? Who cares? It’s too soon to say. We are a slow brewing stew and have just set the proper heat under the stove. We have yet to add bits of carrot and celery and whatever Brazilian bullshit my counterpart would add to a stew. It will take time. Care, whimsy, procrastination, will all be added. Wrong ingredients will surely be added as well, but it is all ok. It’s a process. We will figure it all out in time and hopefully serve up something nourishing and if all goes right, delicious. In the meantime, let’s agree not to worry about, About.
