Day 57 - Mar 25th - Spinning & Running

Melissa, my fitness coach was out sick today, so rather than have her show me my new fitness exercises I decided to take a spin. Here was the workout:

12 miles in 37:33 minutes at level 8 with an average heart rate of 133 and 344 calories burnt.

Followed by 4 laps upstairs to practice running after transition.

6 miles in 18 minutes at level 8 with an average heart rate of 133 and 172 calories burnt.

Followed by 4 laps upstairs to practice running after transition.

10 minutes on the new machine that seems like it works the inside and outside of your thighs and knees. Almost a downhill ski conditioning machine. It was tough for the first 3 minutes as it worked different muscles. It is like an elliptical but much harder on my muscles. I will report the name when I figure out what it is.

Followed by 4 laps upstairs to practice running after transition.

It must have been a good workout, because when I got home my family said they could smell me and sent me to the shower before dinner.

I thought it was a long workout. Total time about 1:30, but when I called my daughter Maria who is training for the CDA Ironman she said she was going for a spin for a few hours or more with 3 others Ashley, Brendon, and Adam and watching a movie. Here is a picture of their spinning set up.
