Just like we on the cycling team plan our rest and recovery from training, I also plan personal rest and recovery weekends for myself. And, since your body treats stress the same whether its stress from physical training or from just a crazy busy life, this is a good time for a personal recovery weekend. I don't need more stress a week before our big ride. Plus, I get to spend the better part of a four day weekend with my girlfriend in DC.
Anyway, I found it pretty tough to get time in on the bike this past week. I was a little light on training. So I picked a hotel in DC with a nice exercise room which features Lifecycle exercise bikes. I dialed in the "Hill Plus" training setting and set it on 15 of 25 for intensity for 30 minutes on both the upright and recumbant exercise bikes. It's kind of funny but each of those bikes exercise a slightly different set of leg muscles. It was a good workout though. It got my heart rate up between 120 and 140, and it gave my legs a good workout.
