FRANTIC TRAINING SECRET
SOMETHING HAPPENED THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, that hasn't happened for quite a while. It's weird, but I also think it's legit form of high-performance training...
... don't hold your breath.
I'm not going to tell you.
I'm going to guide you.
Here's how it went down for me,
and I bet you can relate.
Being sidelined for the first 2 months of this year,
I chose to slowly build my fitness back.
Short slow rides,
turned to longish slow rides.
I felt ready to join the group rides.
I was quickly distanced.
Eventually, I could hang on.
The last 4 weeks,
I turned the corner.
My fitness was such that I could push deep enough...
... to breathe frantically.
The kind of breathing we do after sprinting all out for 100 yards, on foot.
Am I saying forget the...
- HR monitor
- Power meter
- Structured intervals
... maybe, sort of, kinda.
When we are breathing frantically at least once a week...
... we know we're actually hitting our highest efforts.
