Well it seems that ole man winter will not release his grip from me just yet. It snowed once again this past week, which means the temperature drops which means I am inside training again. I am starting to like my fluid trainer and how well I am riding on it. I wouldn’t mind some more sun outside, or even a good hard rain to wash the last bits of salt and sand off the roads so I can get the DeRosa on the road again.
For the first time in my racing career I am settling into weight training. Hard to lose weight as my legs get a little bigger and stronger but I figure if it helps me go faster and uphill easier I am all for it. I started in December with my training partner Eric Gibson and we both seem to think it is working really well.
I just could not go at this weight lifting thing alone. Anyways, two days per week of legs and a few hundred abs and other core exercises gets me through the week. I haven’t missed a workout yet, so this weight training better work.
Before I continue with this journey I have to give big thanks Shana German for loading my blog onto the Pinnacle Health + Fitness website each week and allowing me to see if this kind of entertainment really works with readers. I figure the more of you reading this and giving feedback the more they will allow me to write. Drop me a line on Facebook, matth@phfitness.com or come out and ride with me and let me know what you think?
I hope to very soon have a report from the roads of Dane, Green, Rock and JeffersonCounties. Stay tuned. Matto.
