Errrmmmm None of you are really trying .... 203!!

 

[Aleman]

Possibly the only number I may beat you lot on

Although I believe Big Mig had a MHR of around 210 ... Resting 28

My max HR is down to about 160 now

My max HR is about 184.

I did a spin class the other day where you had to hit gradually increasing HR zones which were a percentage of your max HR. I didn't realise (stupidly) until about half an hour in that because I was on a "guest" account and hadn't entered my real stats, I was following a profile where the max HR was assumed to be about 210 - as you can imagine, it was quite a hard session....

No, I prefer the climb feature Wahoo have developed.

I have no doubt Tacx will make a bomb out of this £2.5k trainer. I do hope they have got the gear shift perfect.

I'll let Tommy buy one and test it for us first before I decide what to do

Got ZA Workout #7 done yesterday. Easy until the 10 minute Free Ride - which of course is as hard as you make it. I was trying to beat my best 10 minute power of 280W. I got to 8:20 and was averaging 824 but then I bailed for 40 seconds (lightweight). I then pushed hard for the final minute and finished on 278W. Annoyed with myself for wimping out.

Still that is 7 workouts, 3 group rides and a race done so far.

My 10 mins on that workout was a mere 263 watts I must try harder!

I've hit 181 in a race, and most races I'm hitting 175+.

I'm on the 19:10 ZA group ride tonight. Looks like @bert1971 is on there too. Anyone else joining? This will be my last group ride for ZA, then just have 4 workouts left to complete the academy

Can i have bit of handicap. I am 54 and 203 is way beyond even my theoretical heartrate. But on the other hand, life is full of surprises.

What happened after the 2nd sprint? You disappeared.

Plan was to strictly spin around sub-2 as my legs were heavy. But I couldn't help myself on the sprints. Plan is to nail my last group ride and ZA #4 over the holiday weekend.

Electrical power cut in the village I live (actually all villages in 12 mile radius) - was enjoying that ride too. Power just come back on. Will have to do that ride again to make it count

Can't in the morning ..... may go and do a workout tomorrow afternoon instead.

Integrated energy store system to indoor trainers would be handy sometimes . Not for sure how good efficiency is, probably exhausted.
