Bit of a Forrest Gump day today. Meant to lift legs, but got into the riding zone early. Felt good, so I kept going. Took a break at 1:20m to take a Clif Shot & refill my water bottle. Felt good, kept going through class. Then cooled down.
~2.5hrs total ride time, mostly in LI or MI aerobic zones.
60m Spin Class + 30m cooldown
#woot #cardio – stayed #aerobic
80 minutes warming up, spin class begins now! #itsgotime #down #with the #sickness 
Gorgeous day in Denver – get outside!!
12 hour fast for blood screen. Hungry!
Ordered a Test level too, curious to see where that’s at…

Back on track after skipping yesterday. Decreased training loads, increased poundage. Felt pretty strong – rest days work!!

I’ve gained ten pounds in a week! If only it were all muscle…
At 200 pounds, a one percent change in hydration levels/water weight equates to two pounds. Activity, respiration and altitude all affect hydration levels. In my case, eating carbs after about 8pm usually results in a temporary spike in weight the next morning. It’s not unusual for me to have five pound fluctuations in weight, day to day.
The scale is just one of many tools available to gauge progress – use it as a reference, not an absolute.
