Turbo Man's Fitness Blog: That Was Some Week!

NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

That Was Some Week!

As part of my new lifestyle I've stopped keeping a training diary so I'm not tempted to chase hours, but this has clearly been quite an intensive week for me.
Monday: Bike and CrossFit
Tuesday: Bike
Wednesday: Duathlon
Thursday: Bike-CrossFit-Bike
Friday: Rest
Saturday: Bike-CrossFit-Bike
Sunday: Bike-CrossFit-Bike
Today I took the Litespeed out and rode to the CrossFit gym; there was plenty of wind that made it a hard ride but I continue to be impressed by the wheels. They are just so smooth. Today's WOD was 4 x (100 feet of weighted lunges, 30 box jumps, 20 wall ball and 10 handstand push-ups (I'm not yet able to do these so have to do an alternative) and was chuffin' hard. Legs are now very tired and so I'm taking some medication to ease the pain. :-)
