This as tooooo hard!!
I had no energy left in my legs!
I kept expecting myself to fade and start the slogfest, but that didn’t really happen. It was hard the whole way through but good hard, not soul-crushing hard. Got most of the way through a silly movie called Blackhat, which wins points for generally correct use of who, whois, ssh, and (incredibly) PLCs, but loses points for implying a Windows auto-run config would be executed on a headless Linux server. I got the feeling somebody read about Stuxnet and thought it would make a great cyberthriller.
[e] CALLED IT
:
In an interview done at the LMU Film school, Michael Mann said he was inspired to make Blackhat after reading about the events surrounding Stuxnet

WTF?
Ive done many a long ride, never seen that
Pobably just my massive quads!
Or the cheap bibs eating away together with hairy legs.
Was once told the human body has about 9kgs of skin, so Im trying to get rid of some ![]()
Hawk’s Bill +1. This is the hardest workout I’ve done so far on TR. 2 minutes @ >=190 bpm. 95ish % of HRmax. Well over 20 min total time above 90% of HRmax. I am done lol. Time to eat every carb in sight and breathe in all the oxygen. I wanted to take a short break before the last set but I remembered coach Chads famous words “You don’t need it, you just want it.”
There are probably better ways to improve your w/kg. I’m just saying …
Thank you for the info.
Had just sat down in the batthub with the cheesegrater
Ramp Test for me today, but my trainer lost its connection to the TR app so I lost all power, right at the peak when I should have been doing my best:
I’ve heard of this happening to other men, but it’s never happened to me before. Just lost the inclination right before the final push. A big disappointment.
I’m going to have to talk to my support engineer about this.
Tired legs today but 10 minutes at a time kept everything ticking over. I told AT it was hard and it still wants me to do Wright Peak tomorrow. This is fine. ![]()
(I’m really enjoying all this variety from AT, it’s fun veering off the standard plans.)
I had ramp test yesterday and result was 20W drop to FTP. I´m not very disapointted as i knew it gonna be something like that. Since last test 7 weeks ago i have had too aggressive weight loss and bad recovery due that. Actually my w/kg is exactly same as it was 7 weeks ago… Now I try to stabilize my weight or even get back couple of kg with good nutrition and focus to gain back lost watts.
After ramp test i did Carillon with new FTP and it feels right
Jepson - week 3 of SSBMV2. About to switch to 2-3 runs, 2 TR workouts per week, so this is the last workout in the “normal” plan schedule. Went ok, demanding but feasible, just the way threshold should be. Watching Marvel superheroes beating up the bad guys while pedaling away always helps.
On we go.
I’ve just started on the 6wk POL plan so it was Perkins-1, which I pushed outside and is basically 100 minutes of low level steady state. https://www.trainerroad.com/app/career/bobw/rides/107278949-perkins-1-tr-outside-workout
In fact it’s so low level that there were lots of points where I just couldn’t get a gear where I’d be within range! That was balanced out by the coasting, all 26mins of it, then …
I had just finished the main interval when my left pedal broke and the body came away from the spindle
I was 11km from home at this point and with a big hill in the way. By staying clipped in with the right foot and leaving the pedal on the shoe I could start moving and slide the body back onto the spindle, it needed constant sideways and inwards pressure to keep it there. Managed to ride most of the way but the steeper bits of the big hill were a walk - not easy in road shoes, even less easy when one has a pedal attached!
Wiggle/CRC here I come.
Don’t tell me they were Look Keo’s? I’ve seen a few pairs fail like that. I hope it wasn’t too problematic; a mate had one go and it made a nasty mess of his leg.
Yep, Look Keos. They are probably three years old. Fortunately the axle didn’t make contact with my leg.
