YOU LOST THAT TAPER FEELING... WHOA, THAT...
I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU, because you get it. However, we've all got a friend or three who need to be hit upside the helmet...
... when it comes to tapering.
This week it hit me.
Exactly how to explain what tapering feels like.
I was doing shoulder presses with 200 lb. dumbbells in each hand...
... it might have been less weight than that, but that's not the point.
The point is I had a good, heavy piece of metal in each hand.
The resistance was very real.
After I plopped the weights back down,
I reached up above my head to grab something.
There it was.
My hand shot up,
with zero effort.
That my fine lycra-loving friends is...
... exactly what proper tapering feels like.
On raceday.
We shoot....
- uphills
- off the front
- rocking all out in a sprint
... with zero perceived effort.
Truly magical.
We should feel that good when the...
- stress of heavy training loads
- grind of 9-5 hustling for money
- nights of of too little sleep and rest
... are left behind the final week or so before the A race.
On that day,
for that moment,
we are SCARY FAST!
Which is exactly how I plan to be at the Filthy 50 Costume Race.
At least the scary part.
In this frighteningly rad kit.
